Good evening everyone has been very sunny and cold here too, plus very frosty this morning.
Got up at 4 am had been awake since 3, nose all stuffy had a cuppa browsed the internet and slept on the sofa from 5 am till 7 am.
We popped into Kings Lynn today to pick up some treats from Marks and Sparks to take to our friends we are staying from Monday till Friday next week, couldn't find anything so ended up in Tesco.
Bought a new coat a waterproof one which will be handy for dog walking next year and handy for Yorkshire I hope it doesn't rain but it's also windproof so very useful.
We took the Vauxhall to Kings Lynn a 50 mile round trip and the A17 a dual carriageway with some roundabouts.
It didn't miss a beat, although we had the expensive hour turn into 3 hour diagnostic test done and reset Donna at the garage isn't convinced it is the turbo charger, Gorden took it out for a spin after the diagnosis and it has worked fine since then. We took it out Thursday on a round trip of around 25 miles as good as gold then too and then today.
So we are doing as Donna has suggested test it a little bit further each time if it's going to go into limp mode again we don't think it will be long.
We will not be home next week so it will sit idle for the week but when we get back we will put it through its paces again and see what happens.
We can't use it in the dark due to the headlight issue.
If that's all that needs fixing after all that will be a bonus.
Roman has gone quiet so we think that's the last we will hear from him.
brenda sounds like a nice day.
Sue busy again, fingers crossed the windscreen issue is now sorted.
Chris sorry the cough has come back, if Doctor is needed hope you get what you need.
griff what a trial for you. I hope you are home and resting now.
Kazz enjoy your ramble tomorrow and tonight's dinner.
