Kingswear looking nice in the sun today - the plastic bathtub is worth 75 Million apparently.  It may have cost that much, but I doubt that it’s still worth it. Mark No you are probably right, I'd rather have a nice old Enterprise any day.

Collected new car this morning from KH, followed by 140 mile trip up to Doncaster this afternoon to attend family event tomorrow. Steep learning curve with steering and transmission but it gets better the faster you go. Thankfully little traffic on mixed roads provided good initiation and modest journey time. Even the luggage stayed put courtesy of cheapo bungy octopus although looking forward to leather suitcase with straps and cover to follow  Can't thank Dan Whiting enough for extra work he arranged FOC on dashboard. Hate chrome especially in the cockpit. He not only arranged for main instrument bezels to be removed, shotbblasted and powder coated matt black, but included clock and switch surrounds as well. Also fitted a Sony radio and the Phoenix/John Taylor mirrors I supplied  Great improvement IMO, need to do something with that awful standard rear view mirror though - I was warned Well done, Richard. It looks superb, and I must say I like the black instrument bezels..

Yesterday: down to Williams for their open morning/breakfast club/Morgan day. Rather quiet, though a few test drives were going on (and several cars sold apparently). Quite taken with a 10 plate Evora, but the 4/4 is easier to enter/exit (and will fit down the driveway  ). On from there to join Peter Ballard (of SSL) for the Marshfield village day and parade. Good to catch up after a couple of years missed. Ah, and a large mint choc chip Marshfield ice cream

Busy day and we bleed the T16 Plus4 Morgan brakes yesterday... Didn't realise who I was chatting to today. Hope you enjoyed the picnic, hope you find the water loss soon.

That's the one - just as you climb up out of Blackpool heading to Strete that bit of path has only been opened for a few years now.

Just South West of Blackpool Sands where the path plunges down a steep sided valley. Main Road just visible on the left. We've worn the hinges out on that gate...................
