Not looking good. 2 hours waiting and nobody has accepted the recovery yet, so they're searching further afield.  Still don't even know how long I have to wait.

Gutted for you. Is that the first major FTP in all the years you've owned the Stellar?

Not quite. There was one just after getting it back on the road, but this is a biggie in terms of cost. The only slight positive is that it has unsiezed now it has cooled down, and I've managed to drive a short distance up a "Police Vehicles Only" ramp to get off the hard shoulder.

Time for a barbecue seeing as I haven't eaten for 10 hours!

I thought it might have been you when I passed northbound earlier this evening but hoped that it wasn't. I hope somebody turns up soon.

Thanks, but on the way to the FoD now.

Matt and Stellar have arrived safely at the FoD. Should be easier to find out what is amiss with it in daylight.

Saturday was a FANTASTIC day!

The weather was perfect and a great turn out of willing helpers saw the Saab 95 project, Peugeot 404 advance. Children's camp was built, tea was drunk, car fixing was done and a campfire finished the evening.

I am going to get the camping field sprayed against LDV for next time!

I am looking forward to today Sunday and I will be at FoD from 10am.
