Interesting run from Nottingham to Manchester Airport this morning, didn't expect to be doing the Cat and Fiddle pass in the mist 🤣

 

Good fun! Ideal habitat for a 300k mile ex taxi Octavia.

@EspenO @Dyslexic Viking

remind me why the roadsigns are different colours? when theyre in the same area

takk

[EspenO]

Like the one above, yellow/white direction signs? Yellow are geographical destinations (cities/towns/villages), white are local spots or services (churches, shops, garages etc)

I'm in Pécs in Hungary by accident. We were supposed to be staying in Budapest but this M62 turned up. 

The choice was go one stop and bail for the last  train to Budapest or go to Pécs for a proper run and be stranded there. So my friend found a cheap hotel and we ended up in a place inside the castle walls drinking this. 

As the name suggests its brewed in the city. They'd run out of the normal beer but said they had this cherry beer. Don't normally do fruit beers unless I'm in Berlin but by god this was lovely. We had four each before heading back to the hotel and I am going to bed a very happy man.

Completed the wiring and connected and started the diesel heater for the first time on the Vivaro camper today and nothing has caught fire yet and everything works, I'll take that as a win.

Odd advertising.

Luis Moya, who was the navigator for the rally diver Carlos Sainz. Is here being used to advertise car insurance. Rally motor sport and insurance is not something that I would put together.

Tonight was a raspberry beer in an underground bar in Budapest near Keleti station. Not as nice as last nights but still very good.
