Morning all. Meeting this morning. Then office bound.

May even go to the gym again this evening. After all, I better start getting trim for the wedding suit I have to get into in September!

Have a good one all!

I know, let's attempt to watch a 24hr race in France. What could possibly go wrong! That'll make a nice quiet break.

Interesting that the express say that the 24 heires du Mans translates as a '42 hour rally'....maybe they're referring to our 42-hour drinking rally...if so they're out by 126 hours....

Morning all. Somewhat damp this morning, but highs of 30 forecast later.
Got a call from Giallo at sparrowfart this morning (clearly the message of "I'm in the US didn't get through")
They got a call from Maserati this morning: We've got the variator caps but the engineering company is on their two week summer break.........

I'm going to cry a little bit now ;)

Off to a Red Sox game tonight. That will be an experience, I'm sure!

Have a great afternoon, all

Well the insurance claim went in today and I spoke to the nice lady who is overseeing it and she said all was ok. It is my first total loss since 1980!!!

Lazy day planned tomorrow as I won't be 51 any more!

Happy Birthday Newton, hope the insurance company send you a big present. Have you got the replacement Mito yet?

Have a great day everyone.

Morning all.

Sitting here having breakfast on the balcony in Cannes after a fantastic driving day yesterday.

The road from Gap to Grasse is a great road, everything I hoped for on this trip and it's just started. Videos shortly once I've figured it all out.

Morning all. Heading to the office today. First sort of actual day back at work. If trips like Le Mans with mates like you bunch of reprobates is what I work for* then God, its worth it.

Have a good Wednesday everyone.

* and the family, naturally

Morning all, new Mito just needs delivering, it is somewhere near Manchester but as it is a lease you cannot pick it up yourself they have to deliver it so the delivery mileage does not count on your allowance! It is coming tomorrow finally.

Yes a lazy start is in order today with just a single site locally to visit later. Aygo is so much better for its new mechanics and all drivers report it to be so.

Have fun all...

Morning all!
First day back in the office in over 2 1/2 weeks and it doesn't seem to crazy, amazingly! Thankfully, the trip back from France last night all went smoothly with no migrant attacks on me or my car in Calais. I was rather amused by the wine and beer warehouse that's clearly set up for truckers (parking outside, and stock inside), with only hideous wine available very cheaply, but also good Belgian beer available very cheaply thus making my boot a little heavier! I also found some good summer plonk at one of the proper wine warehouses.
Happy Wednesday!

Morning all - back in the swing fully. No post Le Mans depression as they have announced the dates already and I am on the list. Woo Hoo!

Osmolality update - mid-yellow. 3 days without a drink containing alcohol.

It would appear my body is regenerating. I dread to think into what!
