The good morning thread

Good morning everyone and loving this Summer weather at the moment.
@Oneball the wheels will be going to a shade of silver but tomy surprise Ms French likes them as they are but she's young at heart.
@James3200GTA I had a Great time there from using the trains the hotel I stayed in and will certainly be back with my Ms French and see more of your Country.
Everyone was so friendly and accommodating.
Bolt taxi's worked exceptionally well and had my first and last ride in a Tesla 3 :)
Need to go and collect my Jaguar XJ6 from Laval where she's parked along the river today.
Have a lovely Saturday all.
 
Morning all, nice day so might spend it in the garden. I have a garden table to rub down and oil and need to start prepping for impending new garage which means car port to come down, and all stuff in garage to find a temp. home.

Catastrophic holiday so far. Loud local fiesta outside our hotel room, only thing louder is the cement factory. Due to fiesta we were made to walk a mile from where the transfer bus chucked us out to the hotel (as it turned out totally unnecessary). Restaurant open but 'too busy' for new customers. Currently loud music and fireworks.

But now some improvements...

We were offered a slightly better room (same 'class') from tomorrow, but have thrown cash at the problem and upgraded to a much better room on the other side of the resort.

If money can fix it, it's not a problem...

@James3200GTA where in the south of France? Villefranche and some other areas were a regular stomping ground way back in the day...

Good [afternoon] all...slept in til 10a and feel like a new person. Much less coughing & much more rest. Chores around here & fiddling with the new beastie before heading out to dinner...birthday girl (Courtney, Monday) to be celebrated...
 
Morning all,

Went out with the boat crew yesterday. Stark reminder can't keep up with the younguns anymore.

@DLax69. From near Marseille to Monaco. Historical GP next weekend apparantly. Wrong weekend to visit to work.

Any how home bound.

Morning all, pop’s day care 24hr in so far! Off to Southend in a bit to the Cliffs Pavilion for the Bluey live show; I’d say it is suffering but we are going in the MAs and the sun is shining. Like a lot of kids stuff they weave a lot of adult humour into the script.

Have fun all…
 
Morning all, sun here too but rain alter apparently. Off to Dublin to meet my old boss for dinner assuming the fuel protesters lets us through
 
Belated morning all, spent half the morning grubbing about in the Cooper's engine bay, it definitely needs new coolant hoses, water pump etc, I'm 99.99999 percent certain that the items I've removed from the car are the 1968 originals, now I like originality as much as anyone else, but when the car was restored for the previous owner about eight years ago, you'd think all this stuff would have been replaced!

I like Bluey. A lot of it is wasted on kids, I think.
