Not today salt everywhere and -1C.
Take CARE out there underfoot the neighbour has dislocated or broken his shoulder this morning and is on his way to A&E with his Mrs driving, that'll teach him. Agreed. My opposite neighbour had hellish problems getting off the drive this morning. He finally succeeded after 30 mins of revving the tits off his car and spinning the wheels till he melted the snow and got grip. At 5.30am. That's not what you need, has he forgotten you have a very noisy toybox  I may be reminding him......

I know my strimmer generates 103 decibels. After our neighbours had a very loud party till 1 am it seemed all the adjoining houses were strimming or cutting the lawns at 8 am. Since then no more loud parties.

My chop is ludicrously loud (GSXR750 on open pipes). If I'm coming to or from my house, I tend to ride in 4th or 5th on tickover out of respect for my neighbours. I could certainly give it a 'tune up' for him, however I risk alienating several postcodes........

The weather was just too good. Drove down to the beach for a walk. Lovely. Stuck to the B roads to hopefully avoid salt. Will wash Belle later in the week.

That's what the floor mats in your car are for.

I couldn't get any photos to load yesterday but today they have. The sun was low & bright giving some fun lighting effects.
Nice photos John, despite the technical difficulties. I have to say, those Brooklands models are really cracking looking cars

Thanks. It also gave me something to do whilst exercising. Wed should be around 8c so will wash the dirt off. You can see in picture 3 how dirty the exhausts are.
