Not steering (I'd be dead) or callipers (don't think RAC does repaint, unless orange).

Since you ask (kinda) I drove slowly and carefully over a small branch in the middle of the road, which in a Steve Irwin's ray kinda way jumped up and wedged itself amongst the gear selector rods.

RAC said it was one in a million bad luck, and not as bad as the call where it was a whole badger wedged under a Mercedes.

The moral here is that wood in the morning isn’t always good ;)

Good Morning everyone, a nice early Saturday shift and all is quiet. Quite a bit to do this weekend too, thanksfully all inside and out of the rain.

Enjoy your Saturday.

I was on my way to a 'works outing' to shoot (at) some clays, and was fortunate to be able to limp into the shooting centre just as the gear selection complely gave up. The RAC was outstanding - on site in about 15 mins and cheerfully fixed in 10.

A works outing…Clay Shooting….Who do you work for Mark ? …. The Earl Of Buckley……

Oh sorry to hear about your car buddy.

A very good morning to all. Taking my parents out for lunch ….Christmas film with the family later. That’s it today.

Morning all, off to the shoot with three hounds solo today so going to be fun! I’m going to be a little tired after for sure. A little drive out later once I’ve got the hounds and myself showered and dried out. It is chucking it down here.

Have fun all…

Morning all. Lights up on the house this morning, then this pm in charge of the mulled wine at the Christmas lights turn on. Should be pleasant.

Have a great one, all

Good Morning from Rouen.
Driven past here many times but my first spending a weekend here.
It's a beautiful city and was surprisingly quite easy on a Friday night.

Even if it gets wedged some somewhere it shouldn’t?

Especially that!

Morning all Ms’ PCR test came back positive, mine negative, supposed to be doing groupy stuff this weekend but don’t think that’s a good idea as we’ve been stuck in the house together.

Just had to Google that and forgot you had a Tractor in your collection.
I noticed on the internet that a similar one had sold at the Bonhams auction at Goodwood last year for strong money (enough to buy a Maserati) so I’ve decided it’s worth me showing mine some TLC.
