Graham: I remember that evening over at Lasham when my son was learning to glide. Must be some time ago now. I'll try and remember to take a tape measure on Sunday when I get the car out for a trip to Goodwood.
Paul: your former car looks identical to mine - thanks for posting the picture. I envy that hood, mine has never looked quite the same since it was targetted by a family of mice!
Thanks, everyone for the kind comments. We've had "Ada" now for 14 years and I can't imagine ever parting with her. It's a shame I've had to put her into storage for now while I work on the Austin 7, but she'll still come out regularly.

Yes. I find some trivial excuse to drive it most days. Today I went to the fishmonger, the Co-Op, the butcher and took the long way home. Spotted a dark green Trad in Cobham along the way. Where could this be? Tuscany, the Languedoc, Champagne - well I've given the game away a bit already - just down the road at Denbhies Vineyard in Dorking ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2021/08/14/73269777-23A8-44E8-9072-F132E72EA40E.jpg) What a difference a tonneau makes to the Trad experience, helps the roof to be quiet, calms down the cabin area and makes my 4 seater look neat and tidy at the back. I may be tempted by a separate hood cover that allows easier access to the rear seats

We are back from a tour to the vineyards. Different landscape from Dorking. That is the area near Gamlitz in Austria. ![[Linked Image]](https://up.picr.de/41831600om.jpeg)

Hannes, my head & stomach remember sturm from the Wienerwald. A sort of wine based scrumpy that comes in pint mugs & sorts you out for days. That think is ready in the autumn.

I may be tempted by a separate hood cover that allows easier access to the rear seats I had a tonneau cover made that had a side to side zip for the cockpit cover element. It gives us a hood and luggage cover that can easily be accessed by releasing a couple of poppers. Then when we park, I just zip in the missing bit. Not sure if this concept would work on a 4 seater though.

You should stay away from "Sturm". It's dangerous when the grape juice is in full fermentation process. Causes rumble in head and guts. But now you know...
