Afternoon. Went to size up the 159 yesterday. Looks good, either saloon or sportswagon will suit (must admit I prefer the shape of the wagon!). No hurry so I'll start looking out for a tan interior ti in good condition...rare apparently.

Morning :(

Uncle (been more like a father to me) taken to hospital at 3am. Pneumonia (always think that should be fear of French tyres?) apparently, which isn't great for a chap with an artificial heart valve.
Much calming of my Aunt required; not a great day. Was supposed to be testing the race car tomorrow, but cancelled that, my mind's not on it.

Sorry to hear this. Hope he makes a fast recovery.

Best to your Uncle, Drew.

Back to the (different) office today. They moved while I was in the US so odds are I'll go to the wrong place for a while :)

Have a great day, all

Morning all, I hope we can all just get on with things today, I have still to get to a site in South London today and I really need to get to Hatfield but don't think I can.

Have fun all...

Morning all from sunny Nervi.

Drive along the coast today down to La Spezia. Need to clean the bugs off the windscreen first.

Morning all. Back at the coalface after a rather messy weekend but enjoyable weekend.

One of the highlights was the blat along the M20 with a 4200 Spider an M5 and a V12 7 series (all dutch).

At speeds approaching 71 mph it was great fun especially as the road was surprisingly empty.
And a got a big thank you from them all when I spotted the plod hiding (literally) in the long grass waiting for speeding motorists.
So on went the anchors to get me down to a comfortably legal 65 mph. ;)

Have a good one all. Gotta pick the Merc up from the main stealers at some point as well after it's service. Being a B service and needing an aircon regas and a new bearing, I've a feeling it won't be cheap.
