Not sure how quickly the spray cans fly off the shelves at the Range

Dunno but I'm off to the range after lunch for a new duvet and the Ford russet brown looks remarkably similar to the Hoover war-duration  town, which I need for one...

Twatting down with rain now though so not a job for today

Yes, I've been using the primer for ages as its cheap on ebay for 2 cans (cheaper than at the Range) but I've never tried their paint, so that's good to hear! 

The Ford brown is metallic too... @brownnovacould have a sparkly brown nova...

I was told this afternoon that I have to put my clocks back tonight.

Trouble is, I can't remember where I bought them from.....

But that’s one extra hour of lockdown for us Welshies! Highly unfair. 
 

I’m going to sleep so I don’t notice.

Ah good, you've got your sign on so people can avoid you! 

If it all goes wrong and you stall, don't fluster, screw the people behind, reset the car and move off again. You'll soon be fine!

Girl I worked with broke down at the traffic lights 100 metres from the orifice. She put her hazard lights on and rang me so I went round to push her out of the way and there was some woman doing exactly this.

Indeed I have installed the target on my car for all the contractors and white van men to take out their stress upon!

Is that a requirement now? Otherwise isn't it just a rag to the bull that is the average British driver?

Congratulations on the pass by the way.

Meh, the mentality behind it is increased awareness = allowing time etc. but whether this actually happens or not is a different story. I have them on because I might as well -they don't cost much and seem to be a good thing for a very new driver- but if I do notice that it attracts the (usual) bullish and aggressive driving I've got with L plates, they're coming off and staying off. There's no requirement to have them yet, but who knows what might happen.

Marvellous!

I know everyone has already said it but, get that stupid thing off. 

I refused to let my kids have a P,  because I went out in the car with one, and the increased aggression towards me was obvious.
