If I want to pass 6 lorries , I will stay out and pass 6 lorries , not dive in the inter lorry gap and get trapped there !!

So that also means another 29% didn't know the answer either. Or were they just trying to make him get it wrong? I must admit llamathrust has a nice ring to it.

Reminds me of that joke 

Woman turns to her husband in church and whispers, I've just farted, what should I do 

Put some new batteries in your hearing aid

text from doctor - you need to make appt after we got letter from urgent care doc

you also need a blood test

rang them as it wasnt the gp - they said no itll only be a blood test (im expecting an x ray also)

they asked when would you like appt? they picked the furthest away in the area - but then changed their mind in the same sentence :D - ALL other blood tests have been a letter thru the post with whatever notice

 

i said would friday be ok - afternoon? :D (i go away friday evening if weather ok)

no problem

have to tell work monday - theyre gonna love me :D

Laguna MOT'd for another year with a couple of advisories

I think the most I've spent getting it through the test was last year when I had the headlights polished 🙂

Steve berry on car and classic with the late John Dodd’s beast. Includes very tall tale that made me laugh about overtaking a panda car in the 1950s towing another car in a rolls Royce cloud at 100mph.

Have overnighted here more than a few times just a quick stop this occasion though plenty vans in for the night a couple had a fire going is a great spot.

The Oxford was on the road today!!! 😁

Here it is by the Union Canal, one outmoded mode of  transport by another.

I was sitting a decent distance behind this thing in the Rexton with the window down and music playing, and I could still hear the diff.

Quality mode of transport.

It's the racecar heritage. 

Just sounds like a touring car

Calendar shot indeed, and the only sort of bridge this should be allowed to cross.

No it isn't.

It's poorly framed and taken with a phone camera. I'll need to take my proper DSLR over there next time and get a decent photo of it.

I just got an advertising email.  Now this wouldn't normally cause a Grin, but it was from Tui, with the headline "Get your summer holiday sorted."

Too late chaps, it's almost complete now, our two-week roadtrip in France and Germany!  And all done independently.  Now THAT's a Grin!
