Christmas present's ordered for three nephews/nieces - we usually ask for a list from my bro/sister. Amazon and The Entertainer were used - getting delivered as I'm going no-where near shops at this time of year.
 
I didn't think it would work but I thought I would give it a try. The Halfords aerosol paints. They have stopped making the car colours and just gone for different colours of the spectrum. Red, blue yellow , green and darker or lighter shades. I picked up one to see if it would match my Pinarello and sprayed a test panel. The red from the spray can came out as an orange red a bit like tomato soup whereas the Colour is a bit darker but more of a blue shade towards raspberry colour. I popped in last night and picked up a can a few shades darker than the one I bought and sprayed out a test panel. Just as I thought they have just added black to get a darker shade! It is more of a muddy orange red now. Where's before you could look at different car makes which were a close match to what you wanted you are now stuck! I can use the first can as it is a close match to my Woodrup but the new can is going back!

A belated good morning from Suffolk after a late night and a lie in. Definitely feels like a two coffee start to the day, the first of which has already been had.

Cloud cover continues, but at least it's not raining and not too cold. No plans for the day, let's see what happens after coffee number two and a late breakfast/elevensies.
