Too wet in the morning, crap flying up off other cars, so decided against it, regretted by the afternoon which would have been a roof off drive home frown

Completely the wrong time to sell, roads are starting to dry out and get warm driving

Not in a Tuscan (i sold a few years back) but my Cerbera, I have been working in Hamburg so I haven,t been out in it for a week or two. When I got home it was dry and the wife and kids were not it so I went into the garage for a peek and I couldn,t resist. Nice dry roads 11deg and had a great drive for about an hour. I have just had a full rebuild at TVR Power as well and the SP6 engine is superb.

Right, no more mixing French red with single malt. I have absolutely no recollection of posting this last night.
