He's a goodun. Staying at home today though. 

Got a fresh prophylactic for my third leg, and onto the first proper part of the journey:

[yes oui si]

W202 briefly staying with a couple of my other cars:

And got a lift to here:

[yes oui si]

First change made with seconds to spare. Always liked this station, about to stop at Durham, which is not a nice station. 

[yes oui si]

Made it to the Midlands... 

[yes oui si]

And I'm out of London on the final leg. What a fucking horrific place. There's something fundamentally wrong with you if you choose to live there. 

[yes oui si]

This shit is really appreciated.

It's just so feckin stressful. Staying in Stratford, it's just horrifying how many people there are per square metre in the busy parts. 😬

I live in a village of just over 2,000 people. I was bloody terrified going to London just for the sheer volume of people that were there!

Only because they built the posh hooses. There was 2,000ish in 2001 but I'm sure that number will have went down actually.

That's town size. Rothbury has that many people in it. 

I picked up some wheels from Ely a few years back and the guy referred to the place as a village.

It does get village status, however. I'll leave this here for you and keep my mouth shut as I don't want to detract from this thread further lol. 

[yes oui si]

Derail away, I'm about to. 

...into a taxi. 

[yes oui si]

Forgot to hit post. Already at Peterborough services, which is a weird place. 

[loserone]

Hope it's driving well dude! How does it feel to be back in ce sacré numéro ?

[wuvvum]

I've only just twigged that this is you retrieving the 205 from chez le docteur.

[Cookiesouwest]

I hadn't even twigged so thank you @wuvvum.

Where was the Wollard pic ?

[DoctorRetro]

There was no official handover as I'm away in London....

But I received this pic from some suspicious character lurking around near my place.

Suzuki off to the scrap yard this week, so all change here soon...

My mobility is rock bottom atm, and the drive back is fucking agony. I don't think I could get my leg up that high 😂

[yes oui si]

It's natural cruising speed seems to be 65mph-ish.

Just necked more painkillers an hour early. Gonna chill for half an hour then continue.

My bladder sensed Wetherby services, so another wee break. I'll be reet.

Got home fine at about 01:30, had a nap at Washington services. 

Surprisingly comfortable even for a cripple - wind the seat back and lie on your side with your feet in the passenger footwell.
