For about four years now, the odd nut shell would appear on the floor of the Sierra. It’s a weird phenomenon but I guessed that something must have stuck one or two in the bulkhead years ago. 

I was cleaning the car earlier ahead of the Ipswich - Felixstowe vintage vehicle run this weekend and decided to remove the piece of carpet behind the glovebox. C2799B88-F1C0-4F42-9B97-CEB198CD7054.thumb.jpeg.52d70f3e28c31ee81a2245154eee5eaf.jpeg

This was about half of them! 

I’ve never once seen a squirrel here but they’re common the other side of the village near the garage I rented a few winters ago. 

Moral of the story? Don’t put your old heap away for winter. Keep the wheels turning and the wildlife can’t make a home! 😳🤣

I said in the grumpy thread recently that I had to pull Equality Act on work. Well they started investigation into someone.
And she announced in the final hour of the day today that she would be leaving our campaign with little further explanation.


HA.

What makes you grin? My youngest daughter nagging me to buy an Esprit. :)

Diversion tactics! :D

had a bad week, absolutely knackered today I shut up work a few hours early and sent everyone home for an early bank holiday and buggered off for some peace in the van.

The usual place I go had a few people on so I gave it a miss, next stop was still shut up for winter so I popped in to the farm here on the off chance, and lucked out, he's got the cows in another field so I have 200+ acres to myself

He still wouldn't take any more than a fiver off me. 

I'd give anything to live here, even in the van.

Washed the car, polished the windows and dressed the tyres. No polish, coat of wax on the bonnet so I can see it bead nicely when driving! A very nice 12 footer now 👌

And all the sand has gone

Spotted Eminem, earlier. 
 

Seems he has moved on from Mercedes/fallen on hard times.

Seen a few nice cars around the roads of Norfolk over the bank holiday - I was overtaken by an early '50s Lincoln whilst cycling into Norwich yesterday, and when I was at Tesco filling up the Rover a '69 Mustang rumbled in.  There was also the middle-aged bloke in a tidy red ADO16 who passed me in Norwich.  Spot of the long weekend though has to be the two identical silver Ssangyong Tivolis with identical roof boxes following each other down the A47.  Extraordinary.

More things on the Lanchester working.  Both switches for the dashboard lights work properly.  As dim as it is, the light output on the instrument binnacle is hugely improved too after repainting the innards, so that was definitely worth doing. Ignition light (red, top right, usually) isn't coming on now though so that's something to investigate, probably dynamo related.
