Morning Andy and everyone.
Nice to see some work happening on the house with the new walls going up but to my surprise another 50mm of insulation has gone in so we have 200mm after nothing I'm expecting big changes.
Still trying to get the Mercedes Adblue issues sorted before she will not start got 16 miles left now.
Have a Great Thursday all.

Morning all, house full of family last evening was lovely. Rather frustrated at trying to place a web order for £7.5k of gate parts, got to the checkout and it failed to go through but also cleared the basket! About 2 hours lost on that. Going to try on the phone today now. Up to West London later and then a meeting in St. James later with a nice meal.

Have fun all…

Morning, you horrible lot. Dropping the Vantage off for its winter hibernation today, along with a small list of winter fettling to bring it back to par. Shame that the weather's crappy for its last good gallop before SORN.

Good morning all. The MP for Tewksbury is visiting site today with our MD. What a waste of
my time and energy as it means feck all and is just about kissing babies I am sure.

Morning Andy and everyone and Friday it is.
A big push on the house yesterday after a big delivery of plasterboard we now have two rooms with walls and ceilings almost finished.
Found two of our new windows have let water in which is annoying no different to the 80 year old wooden ones.
Have a Great day all.

Morning. PT then a day of calls. Mrs C will be with her mother overnight, but in theory the last night for a week as we have overnight carers coming in (and she does appear to be clowly improving)

Have a good one, all

Morning hopefully a less hectic day than yesterday when the team and I spent all day proving to others that the fault was in a 3rd party suppliers application - fecking Oracle

But on the other hand it's Friday and a trip to the solicitor to be told what the insurances companies initial compensation offer is for my accident last year. Then off to trawl throw the classic auction sites ;)

That's always so much fun. Especially for some reason others seem more ready to believe the 3rd party than their own teams!

Do you have a lot of babies there?

He sounds like a classic dreadful old Tory backbencher. MP for decades, done nothing in government, had affairs and multiple marriages, dubious expense claims, anti immigration gaffes, etc.

Off to Nottingham today for meetings, have brought the Strad to give her a decent run and remind myself what an awesome car she is.

Wet and misty on the M1 but a refreshingly event free journey so far, currently breakfasting at Watford Gap.

Enjoy your weekends

Well, clean your teeth first, Andy, Babies are terrified of the smell of garlic.

Morning, all. Vantage SORN'd (sad face), but it's a job out of the way and it'll be well-fettled over the winter. There was a very striking Macca 765LT in there. What a machine. Every where you looked, however close you looked, there was more detail to dive into.

But Mrs Crud is right, I'd still look like (even more of) a stellar bellend driving one.
