Cruise control loom has finally arrived from Germany yesterday. Taken bang on three weeks. 

Fitted it last night. TL;DR it was an arse of a job but it's done now and makes a big useful difference when driving. Might do a write up later if I cba.

New year broadcast from Moscow.

On equivalent of BBC1 a Putin address with much militaristic overtones and not much else

Happy New Year shiters.  Let's hope it's less of a clusterfuck than the last three have been. 

[EyesWeldedShut]

Indeed (can it be any worse).
Happy New Year to everybody - may 2023 bring you all a modicum of happiness and a load of Autoshite.....

Well, technically I’d made it home before it started. THANKFULLY. Could have been a complete disaster.

Every shade of beige in the Algarve!  Sounded like a 5 pot clagger when it smoked away.

RAL 1015 light ivory, or as some people call it, taxi beige. Derv 124s were the go-to German taxi in the 90s, this will have been one originally.
