Trailer full of wood - yes please. Could your man deliver to very westish Wales?

Bobbers - thanks - small steps. Building myself up, just get tired so quickly. Pains gone down to mostly discomfort now, and where I was shaved is now growing back like sandpaper...

Good morrow fellow Trivialities everywherewavey
Well it appears to be a decent day out there again, I may well drag the bike out and go for another ride this morning.

The only Cupra SUV's I'm aware of are the Formentor and the Alteca Bomma, not the Leon, pics below.




Are you going to start selling firewood to complement your income paua?

Hope you're feeling better now Byker.
Seat Leon - we have one, the estate version. Basically Seat's version of the Golf.

Cupra is their performance division, although the new Cupra Born is the electric car, bit like a Leon stretched towards a SUV

Thanks old chap thumbup

26 of the finest British degrees here, if the old Jaguar's dashboard is to be believed.
It takes great delight in telling me when I'm low on screen wash so I suppose it's reasonably accurate.

Drove up to Trivham Common last night to see the aurora. Hectic up there. It was full of folk displaying their personal sources of light pollution. There was a promising glow to the North East but it turned out to be the Kebab Van on Arterial Road.

Oh bother, has it gone up in smoke again?

Discussions concerning a replacement car continue unabated.

"Would you not consider an electric car at all, Bom?"

"Daimler Double Six. Coupe"

"Some of them go like a bat out of hell"

"TWR six litre V12"

"They're cheap to run"

"Fourteen to the gallon"

Rather boringly, despite being close to that there Roswell, NM (where you will recall that Battert’s American cousin has fenced off the so-called Area 51 for his experiments), we saw no lights of any description at all the last few nights, but did have a biblical thunderstorm here yesterday.

Sorry to hear of the various indispositions, folks. I do hope today’s better.
