Fathers Day. My gifts from my fiancee's daughter included a Spitfire book, an engraved beer tankard and adoption papers

Today represents a milestone which we never thought we would see back in Nov 2016. It is 5 years to the day since I was diagnosed with incurable stage 4 lung cancer and 3 years, almost to the day

Ooop's yep, forgot about that one. Maybe get a Halfords fitter then. They can do it all without training. Brush may never be the same again though.

Simple one for me today , the Evora flew thought it's MOT, even better it was a free one as when I bought the car I got a "free MOT for life" card.... The way I keep cars will recover at least £500 quid of the buying price ....

@Kevin Wheeler he would love that - doubt it’s even possible. Looking like just under £900 for him to insure his polo - which frankly seems good value.

Tell me about it @johnpwalsh - he’s paying half the insurance though - but at £789.55 fully comp with a black box - frankly that’s great value. Living in a rural location it’s great that he can have some freedom.

Went with my very definite better half to see Steve Hackett last night. Fantastic concert, just superb and managed to secure some great tickets for the Red Hot Chilli Peppers tour. It's nice to get back to gigs and Hacket was third gig in three weeks with The Manics and the sublime Heaton and Abbott being the other two.

 

Oh and to keep up with recent posts my 6ton log splitter was put to good use on some nice 2 year old Ash that I had previously cut down so when the blackouts come at least we'll be warm!

So when will you be posting up your carbon rim options for Elise/Exige/Evora and Emira?  :)

I am not sure how they develop their new wheels. I am not going to say too much at the moment as I want to get a copy of the company NDA so that I know what I can and can't say.

They are really something to look at though.

I'll let the curious go and look at the website.

Well this made me smile , was reading a review on Autocar of the Suzuki Swift sport when it said....  

That this is a car of pleasingly rude verve is quite a surprise when you unearth some aspects of its specification. This latest version is equipped with autonomous emergency barking, 

Suppose it saves taking your dog with you. Autocorrect  again.

This year's last substantial Lotus project left my driveway today.  Time for some proper retirement.

Do you mind me asking which Company that is with Barry?

I usually say to all my pupils anything under £1200 is acceptable but like you say that’s great value. I can’t remember the last time a pupil of mine got it that low. 
Impressive. 👍😊

Always do sober what you said you'd do drunk - that will teach us to keep mouth shut!

27th wedding anniversary today. Don't know where the time has gone but I was very lucky to find a keeper second time round! 😲

Got top marks for remembering the date, but a slap for not being able to workout how many years. However good result this year as it's usually a double slap!

Here's to the next 27!

I suppose the area around Newton Abbot is full of dangerous old age locals who are likely to crash into any new drivers, Barry's area must be safer???

Did you try "They're all special as I'm with you", "Must be the first as it seems it was just yesterday we were getting married" or something equally sickening?

My wife would say I never try re anniversary's. To be honest, I set my stall out from the start - don't do anniversary's or valentines day. In 27 years I haven't. She can't complain she wasn't warned lol.
