Still,a hose pipe ban.

drove across woodhead pass today and the resevoirs along that stretch are down to a trickle. I wouldn't have believed it was so dry til today. It's going to take a good month on full on rain to get them full again I reckon

Oh, she might come too, though she's on a diet at the mo as we are all off to Florida later in the year and no doubt put a stone on whilst we are there

So what you bought now, er a TTRS by any chance

Car working at the moment,( touching lots of wood) and in the process of collecting all the water injection parts for the SORN period
