The good morning thread

Good morning everyone, kitchen konstruction.

Feeling your pain 'O' svelte one! I've had it since Wednesday and feeling very sorry for myself...

It's not a nice one, that's for sure!

Fair play Newton you had me worried as I thought you were indestructible.
You amaze all of us with your workload and can't imagine how many miles you have driven this year.

3,300 miles in 10 days ending on Monday

And from what I hear; in for long run....

3,300 miles in 10 days ending on Monday

330 a day... that's a higher total than many forum cars do in a month!

And has your van's engine self imploded into a heap of molten metal?

Not yet, it is asking for a service soon though; not in the least bit surprised about that. Using oil quality over maximum mileage, which apparently is a thing in modern VWs. Think I’ll get the belts done this time around as it is now 4 1/2 years old they are supposed to be 4 years or 70k, this will be 70k.

A very good morning to all. Feck it is raining here. Alex has football today…That will be fun. Ah well may kept those pesky trick or treaters inside.

Top of the morning - with wife and daughter at a tennis tournament I have the house to myself so home improvement time as well as filling up all the cars in advance of the hike in fuel prices Tuesday. Going up about 6% to £0.86. That is for 95 Octane, the only choice we have at the coastal provinces. Inland they also sell 93.

Stay Safe all.

Happy hatching day Mr Capes.

Morning all, and Happy Birthday Mark - no issue remembering yours as it is also Little Witch (Mrs Z) birthday too

 

[midlifecrisis]

Good morning everyone, yup I have rain too. More kitchen work today and a run to the tip, the home of the bin men.

Congratulations on another lap of the sun @GeoffCapes ...my eldest brother's birthday too

Not the best start to the day, just back from coffee and Mrs Scaf gets a call to say someone she was with all day Thursday has tested positive.
No need to self isolate but obviously we will do the LFT and be sensible.

 

[Andyk]

Well that’s a power cut in Newport, Bristol, Cardiff and here all at the same time….and it’s Halloween…COP strikes…

Congrats Mr C, I hope you are well rested! In company with Spartacus, Frankywankhand (FCZ360) MAF260 and 3 or 4 others we have been thrashing around North Wales on Ryan's Run 9. A good day out with good people and finished off with a nice snack in Betwys-Y-Coed. Next year will be a big one with some more very decent cars coming along. There will be pictures of that one.

Hope the weather stayed ok for you, we came back from Pembrokeshire tonight and needed an Ark and not a car.
