Today, there was no water inside the Maestro.  Could it be, have I finally cured the water ingress?  Cautiously optimistic.

You mad impulsive fool you ( to quote the goons). Obviously the rain was just from a different direction.

Twenty years ago this very weekend I was at Tan Hill.

Twenty fucking years.

Some how I'm still here.

Not sure where the GSA is now.

It was a lovely thing, Cmatic gearbox was ace, but fuel consumption not so good.

Here she is at Le Mans.

Jacky is still living with me.... just.

Megan the GSD died of very old age about 5 years ago :(

I guess there was no Tan Hill this year ?

Christ I'm old....

It was indeed cancelled this year. That doesn't happen often! I've done Tan Hill many times - last time, the 2CV took off and landed very heavily just before the end. Oops...

I've only just discovered tiktok , there's a lot of shite on there but some things are interesting 

One guy lives alone on an abandoned 1860s town which he's gradually rebuilding,  

Now I'm a bit of a LED torch addict , I must have 15 of them,  he's gone down a mine with the brightest torch in the world and it's like daylight

I was like WOW must have

Audi for sure. Looks very similar to the speedometer in my Audi 80! Though mine is only a 220km/h one

Replaced exhaust downpipe on the940 yesterday and expected a fight with rusty seized bolts but it went perfectly, like a write up in a Haynes manual where it sounds a doddle until real life circumstances kick in.

I was even  expecting the Lamba sensor to be seized in so bought a new one which wasnt needed as the old one came out easily.

As it all went so well and quick I even had time to do a couple of little jobs on the Princess.

I watch that Ghost Town Living on YT. The torch is amazing, eh? When he reviewed it I went straight on Amazon, for the price as well lol.

Could they not have called the police? 

For breaking lockdown ? 

They don't turn up for much else , I can't see fly tipping being a priority 

I don't know when or where this happened

I used to live in Kettering,  still on a Facebook group there , a copper said they have 3 on duty at night based in Corby 8 miles away , that's 3 coppers to cover every incident in 2 towns

Admin on this forum made me grin.

I had not been receiving daily up date emails. So I changed email address and used a different server. All was ok. But then they stopped again.

I went back to my previous email address but never received that all important conformation email, Oh sexual intercourse. Now I ma locked out.

Ask admin for help. Nothing happen.

I tried several times to connect with admin. I even took extreme steps using other emails/servers. Not a word.

Even tried to open another account. That did not work. Was I put of the naughty presidents step?

Eventually someone saw my plea(s) for help. I am back in.

Thank you to those who work away without being seen.

Yours a no longer panicking Remspoor.
