I washed the dirty and tree sap sticky cars today.

At the same time my neighbour arrived in a Rolls Royce Phantom that he'd borrowed for the weekend. It didn't half make a racket from the engine - when I was in one last year for my mum's funeral that was silent but this one appears quite abused.

I live in a town with a big Ferrero factory, but I do not like chocolate.

Good morning from a very grey Suffolk. Coffee has been had, but only a small one as I've got a drive of around 2.5 hours starting shortly.
Just need to pack the cool bag with smacks, make a flask of coffee and bottle of squash and I'm off to Leicestershire for some motor racing.

Be nice at Mallory today, I used to go a lot mainly to Clubmans bike meets. Fave spots were the apex of 'The Elbow' (pre 'bus stop' chicane) or on the way into the Esses you could see 3/4 of the track (with bins) Quite a few people there but nothing like the big meetings like the 'post TT', the 'Transatlantic Trophy', the 'Race of the Year' (biggest cash prize in the world at the time) and the 'British Superbikes'..............be heaving then.

Overcast and chilly

You put a flask of coffee into a cool bag?

Ebikes front brake again was getting a bit soft last evening to the point I avoided the decent of Humps and a Hill. Presumably forcing the brake fluid in slowly with a syring on the gravity method can mean air pockets remain. Had purchased a metal bleed cup from Total Bleed Solutions to replace the duff plastic Shimano one. That took some finding; bike shed emptied and no sign of it. Eventually fround it under a pair of jeans on a obviously rarely unsed chair. Transpired I did not need their Shimano adaptor so that was £4 I could have saved.

Tired today. Popped some parcels in the post (we have some surplus diabetic supplies for Medtronic insulin pumps so we offered them for free on a diabetic group and they were snatched up fast).

Might have a wander down to the local community micro bar. They have live music on a Sunday afternoon.

Son had an eventful evening yesterday. Popped to the local Tesco and noticed a car parked strangely near the store entrance. Happened to see the driver with what looked like a rifle. Phoned the police and within minutes the car was surrounded. Captured it on the dash cam.
