Well - it was so hot and sunny this morning that I got the SEAC out of the garage and drove it to work.

Anyone else out there do the same :D

It did cross my mind to bring in the big guns today but I got up late and by the time it would have been warmed up and ready to roll it would have been even later.

Unusually for Wales, It's now absolutely hammering down

Just lucky I guess!

Unfortunately I now can't take mine out anymore. This is because the road tax runs out today, so I had to declare SORN at the post office yesterday, because I have not got any money/can't afford to buy it at the moment

That's a bugger. Even moreso because it's probably the case of nice weather now August is over.

It's very frustrating to have my noisy 390 in the shed with dust cover on during glorious weather at the present ,reason being nose to grindstone and driving to and from work in boring 4wd with belgian sheperd in back every day .

Yeah well - I drive mine to work EVERY DAY. I look forward to those crisp December mornings when the air is really dense and you get another 5% or more power.... with the top down, of course!

Probably even more so now I have supercharging.

Then when it snows..... p.s. I'm in the S of Spain right now, and UK Decembers seem like an idyllic case of air conditioning!!!!!!

How ya doing Martin?

My left wrist is pretty much there now....i can drive at least!

As for the wedge, well after having new shocks and steering bush fitted fairly recently, i still wasn't happy with the handling or general steering feel. Sooo...i handed it over to Richard for him to apply a little of that RT magic.
I mentioned i'm in no real hurry...so long as it's sorted, but i'm missing the car bad..especially with the weather as it is.

Anyway after my old car was written off, i bought a '99 silver Ford Cougar 2.5 V6 Xpack. Nice car..............not a wedge though

Keep talking 'Wedges' guys!! Keeps us wedgeless chaps happier
