This afternoon we travelled down to Derby in the Roadster. It looked like it would be a shite journey. First of all it was pouring with rain as we set off. Then I found I only had half a tank of fuel. As we approached the M18 and the fuel stop there was heavy congestion and pouring rain. I still have water seeping through the stitching on my hood.......

So my intention was to head south the non motorway route. As we approached the roundabout there was a 40 limit heading north. But as the southbound side came into view, traffic was light and moving well.

So we took a punt and joined the motorway. Within a mile the road was dry. We had an easy run down in good time. It was quite remarkable for Friday afternoon.......

It was ghastly going north though.

So I'm happy. Apart from the leaking seams. grin2
