Lord Sterling Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 I recognise that Frontera I don't, Sam never tells me what he buys. I bet he's had about 31 different cars since I last saw him a few weeks ago Something about that set up reminds me of the words; long grass, Proton, sunken, driveway blocking... rantingYoof, red5, Cavcraft and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

red5 Posted August 22, 2017 Author Share Posted August 22, 2017 So. Oop norf it is then. From Worcester. Sat Navy says M42 loop to M6. Didn't realise half a nuclear reactor was on move along same loop. Arrive somewhere close to M6 northbound....someones managed to close two lanes northbound. Coupled with M5 roadworks and frictor valves from Windscale I've covered 48 miles to arrive at Kidderminster. 4 miles from my house after an hour and a quarter. Could have just gone that way, slice of cake, spot of tea and away, but no. May not actually be a valve from a reactor* UltraWomble, Junkman and Lord Sterling 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conrad D. Conelrad Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Where in England are you that's that light at 2am?! I think it's a side effect of that eclipse in America. The Moon is in the wrong place, so it's not blocking the sun for us tonight. chaseracer, Ghosty, red5 and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

red5 Posted August 22, 2017 Author Share Posted August 22, 2017 To continue - obviously the best way to Manchester is via Shrewsbury, Wrecsam and Chester. So I did.Whilst silently planing the downfall of the Highways Agency. I formulated a plan to reduce them and the road network to chaos and anarchy with rage inducing frustration. Then put it into plan 20 years ago. Insert Bridgnorth, Cressage, Cross Houses here. A5 was win. Then across the border into Wales. And oop norf. Chester bound !

red5 Posted August 22, 2017 Author Share Posted August 22, 2017 Some more M and A road shenanigans for a while. Not including missing M6 turn honest. Then arrive at Chez Hairnet at 5-5.50 pm as planned. Not. It was dark. I was blocking street and far too close to Manure's ground. So, much pushage, slight strappage and time for a drop of tea and a slice of cake. Which was lovely hairnet et al So, missing something.....

red5 Posted August 22, 2017 Author Share Posted August 22, 2017 There we go. So, it's late, I'm miles away from home, cold, wet but........my second Proton. Of win. 1.3 GL 4dr Mpi. In GE red (ish) Yay. Which doesn't start now, has a mostly flat battery and leaks brake fluid from rear. What's not to love. It's outside the house now, stil on trailer. Off to work shortly, will unload and moar pics etc etc. And make stuff combust internally. Hopefully. Apologies for poor/lack of content so far chaps. Or indeed for too much. Thanks again for the offers of storage initially, and from hairnet for looking after it for me. Ps, Fronterrors are ace. 2.8's more so than anything else. garethj, oldcars, Junkman and 11 others 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Sterling Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Eh? I thought the Proton was the silver bodykitted job you were interested in. Well done. I know how you feel being far away from home, cold and wet. Been there, done that, still doing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red5 Posted August 22, 2017 Author Share Posted August 22, 2017 Still am. Puma rather than Lynx for choice but either will do. Or a Panache See that? I did that. And all it's mates, oooer. Lord Sterling and Junkman 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
