A few beers at Le Mans, weighed in at £191.50
Not a huge amount then, but not to be sneezed at. We always knew Newton was cheap

Batteries about £8 each, the cats were £30 - so now you know your worth

Surely that's a cat in operational condition......

Handy to know. Got 3 batteries in the garage. No wonder ECP will give you £3 'trade-in' for your old battery.

I know, gone all corporate and silly - its a lot less in our campsite assuming someone has done the beer run in the morning

I still don't understand why you can't take your own in. You can literally every other race trace in the world!
Well, maybe not the world, but the ones I've been to you can.

It seems you can if your French, seen loads of French blokes with cool boxes on wheels full of beer - not sure what the actual rules are but pretty sure they are different for the locals. We camp up against a wall that is campsite oneside, circuit the other side, ideal for passing beer over - not that we would do such a thing

Great to finally meet you too, at some point need to have proper look at that car of yours!
Today looks a good day, being shmoozed by a supplier at the waterfront for brunch then I think it's mowing the lawn followed by a bbq lunch and an evening at the sailing club to round off the day!

I can help with all those things, Matt! And yes to the look around the car, too.
Off to London for a thing in a fancy hotel which does great whisky sours. If the one I have for breakfast tastes good then I'll have one more for dessert, to paraphrase Johnny Cash. Although according to the agenda it starts with coffee, which sounds a lot less invigorating. Shame. A decadent day of flopping around and drinking sounds perfect, now the sun's out.

Morning all. Finally got the new discs and pads fitted to the Jaaaaaagggg!
And I have to say after 50-ish miles they are excellent. But then uprating from standard discs to drilled and grooved was always going to do that.
Don't know why Jaguar didn't do it from the off with such a heavy car.
So that's my Le Mans prep done. Well, I might wash the car before we go. Who knows.
Today I will be doing errrr, not sure actually.
