Peter; its been years since I heard the term Grockle, made me laugh. We have the same problem here, the Grockle Invasion happens every weekend. The saying here is: Weekdays are for the locals Weekends are for the tourists. Bruce; where in Colorado are you based? My son studied for a year at CU Boulder. I really enjoyed visiting.

Quick blast around the local area just before lunch today. A few slow things here and there, which just meant I could enjoy the scenery a bit more!

Having sent the in laws on their way (who v kindly house sat for us last week) we took a 45 mile trip round Stamford via Burghley House (packed with kids doing Easter Egg hunt) and stayed long enough for a coffee, then headed off for little drive through Collyweston onto A47 and back towards home cutting off the A1 to go round some more villages. First time with side panels off which was even more fun (and windy) than normal. Such a hoot. Then back home for a wander down to the local for a swift JHB and back to spend a happy hour using the detailer for the first time to give Florence her first clean, as she was looking a bit grubby after a week driving around Wales. Shiny Florence and happy HB. I am learning each time I fill up to be careful with the ruddy fuel nozzle-today a load of fuel gushed out before I had even started to refuel-all over the back of Florence. She wasn’t happy. Another issue I seem to come against is every time I refuel i hardly touch the lever on the pump before it cuts out. This happens repeatedly each time and means it takes ruddy ages each time and makes no difference what angle the pump is in nor how far in. Ggggfrrrrrr! #firstworldproblems   HB

Thanks John. 11 o’clock is pretty much the only angle I’ve probably missed! I shall try next time as, even though I’m lucky enough and happy to stand next to Florence, taking half an hour to fill up is doing my back in even more! Cher HB
