Anyway goodnight all - I'm getting an early night due to a long drive up to Grange today
Lovely spot Grange. One of my sisters lives there. I spent the first 19 years of my life across the estuary in Arnside. An idyllic childhood spent mainly on the estuary.
It is a fabulous place - they live in Allithwaite which has fabulous views over the area
My parents have been up there for the last 18 years and we had some fantastic walks from Arnside to Silverdale when they first moved up

A lovely drive out with in the passenger seat, and no comments on speed or driving ability. Roof off all the way to Otterton to have coffee with Budster and the LOvely lady Budster, a nice few hours chatting and then off to the garden centre on orders of to show me round patio , I think the kitchen is wearing off and feel a new project coming on
Tine to remind that sunshine holidays cost money, and her car needs a new clutch in think
Still a lovely drive and day out.

It's chilly again here today (-10 with a windchill of -17 on the morning commute) but we had some lovely sunshine over the weekend, temperatures a good half dozen degrees the right side of zero and, with the much of the winter's snow melted except for the banks where the ploughs have piled it, it was time for a Sunday afternoon shake-down run.
I had the perfect excuse - the children wanted to get their bikes out of the garage, where they over-winter within scratching range of the Mog, so "I'll just get it out of the garage so it's not in the way" became a half-day of spanner checks, fluid checks, lubrication checks, tyre pressure checks, and a quick test drive taking the long way round to deliver middle child to a playdate.
Amazing how a journey half a mile or so down the road adds a good ten miles to the odometer, isn't it?
Just back from run to the service garage to book in Mog for mot in April and show him the RR graph of torque and bhp , nice torque curve , then to petrol station to top up ready for tomorrow evenings long drive to the coast !
