Baby, it's cold outside.
Yesterday was my first engine start up in a while and it sounded like a flat battery.
( Very slow turn over and no signs of life. )
But, thankfully, on my fourth and final attempt before getting the charger out, the car suddenly burst into life.
Unfortunately, it then ran like a complete bag of nails for the first 10 miles or so.
This was definitely the first real taste of Winter 2018/19, as I quickly lost feeling in my face!
At least I remembered my goggles this time, which helps.
Plus hearing a small child say "
That's an old racing car." as you are waiting at lights is always heart warming.
With limited time available, I could only rack up around 20 odd miles in total, but better than nothing.
This also included a visit to some friends who has spotted me driving around and sent a text.
( Which I only saw when I stopped to fill up with petrol. )
By the time I got to Sainsburys on the way home, it looked like I would be cold & wet!
My MOT it due next month (due to the painting delay last year) so I really must fix the overdrive switch.
So until next time, take care, Paul.
PS
Here are a few photos from my trip to Poland last weekend for my mate's wedding.
Got to love being above the clouds.
The view from our hotel room in Warsaw.
Note:
What appears to be dark black railway sleepers in between the roads are in fact made of bronze!
As they lead up to this, the "
Monument to the Fallen and Murdered in the East".
Which is a reminder of what the Soviet Union did to Poland from 1939 to 1989.
