Just home from Anglesey. He was on his deathbed as I wrote that message and I missed him by an hour.
I did see his body to say goodbye and was able to be there for my aunt.
Our condolences

Just tried to gain access via the ski tunnel in between the rear seats , there is an 11mm socket tucked inside the tunnel which releases the manual cable operation , it appears tight/possibly ceased so not wanting to force it ive called the very very nice man from the AA ..............if he breaks it or snaps the cable its down to them .............plus i have the repair and parts insurance £17 a month for each car that covers up to 3 claims a year up to the value of £500 per claim ............AA men dont like playing with Bentleys usually so it will be possibly off to the dealers at their expense ..............watch this space ..............told you these things are too over engineered to be a daily driver , once its off the drive blocking the garage Ive got no excuse to get the Gransport out for some funMorning, sunny and no wind here first few hours breaking into the Bentley's boot and sorting out the Battery drain problems grrrrrr have fun all
W_ _ _ nkers , said very very nice man isnt so nice , quoted an ETA of 10.40 by text message, at 10.50 apparently on a different system to do with their app , i was sent another message saying my ETA had been changed to 12.15 due to another breakdown being prioritised over mine ........how very dare they without noitifying me first , just gave them what for to the complaints dept , what a way to carry on ............seems im just another numbered statistic in the wasteland of customers they are prepared to lose each year , win some lose some effect , all part of the automated system most of us abhor. Maybe time to look for an alternative.Just tried to gain access via the ski tunnel in between the rear seats , there is an 11mm socket tucked inside the tunnel which releases the manual cable operation , it appears tight/possibly ceased so not wanting to force it ive called the very very nice man from the AA ..............if he breaks it or snaps the cable its down to them .............plus i have the repair and parts insurance £17 a month for each car that covers up to 3 claims a year up to the value of £500 per claim ............AA men dont like playing with Bentleys usually so it will be possibly off to the dealers at their expense ..............watch this space ..............told you these things are too over engineered to be a daily driver , once its off the drive blocking the garage Ive got no excuse to get the Gransport out for some fun

If Loz is middle-aged then I'm still in my teensBecause they will always go out to a lone woman or women / children or risky situations before a middle aged bloke that's let his battery go flat on the drive.
As they should, IMHO

This irate young man didnt let his battreeees ( plural i'll have you mind ) go flat , at the moment its a phenomenon , but a popular cause is the air suspension compressor over running possibly if there is a slight leak in the system .......to be checked now its running ..............the AA boots on the ground very very nice man learned something today about the hole to access the rear boot opening so he's well chuffed , and about the ignition release to release the key when gets locked in the ignition once inserted when the batteries are flat ........as i said its an over engineered minefield even to the experienced of motor engineers , the old gal is running and will go on the trickle charger after an hours running , then off to my local indie to check out the possible compressor over run ...........my complaint has already gone into the admin re informing people direct and on they same system they initiate breakdown and dont switch systems without informing people first ...........logic in my book I'll have you all know I may look close on 70 but i have an IQ and mental age of a teenagerBecause they will always go out to a lone woman or women / children or risky situations before a middle aged bloke that's let his battery go flat on the drive.
