All ok here thanks Steve.
I still miss my mum a great deal - probably 12 years since she passed away now. Funny, I can never get the year spot on in my mind. Always remember the day though - Boxing Day.
I never really bother about driving distances - as long as your steed is reliable and good to go! My ten year old Megane 1.9 diesel is nice to drive and has been really reliable - bought it really cheap. It's the best car I've ever had - never been one for spending lots of money on cars. I suppose my silver, red upholstered, Ford Capri Ghia in the 80's was a close second!
Just have to be vigilant for idiot drivers who have no regard for anyone's safety - including their own.
Well, we have a mini heat wave forecast - at least till Thursday!
