Well here's my bit of festive joy for West London last night

Hahaha, I brought Acton to a stand still for about 2 hours as the ECU had a mental flip as I was trying to turn into the Dairy

MERRY FRIGGING XMAS LONDON

Good old DAF 85's. Has she done 350 /400k. When they get to that mileage the electrics go west. The engines are brilliant and go on and on , but the electrics....ohhhh boooyyyy

It could have been worse.On the way up the M6 yesterday I saw an artic on the hard shoulder(other side)engulfed in flames(cab).I put my window down(full of salt)to get a clearer view and the heat was unbelieveable.There were no rescue services there,so it must have not long happened.Couldn,t see that much,so much smoke.I hope no one was injured?
That trip to Surrey and back,we saw,acar in flames,the above lorry and 6 cars smashed up on the hard shoulder.
Some people drive mad,in all weather.
I,d hate to drive for a living.I ended up with a head ache,trying to(think) be one step ahead of all the prats, MAD manouvers.
The M25,was the worse.

Shes not doing to bad until now, 890,000 kms before the electrics died, could be due to being permantly bathed in cow shite
