Weather total cr*p at present.
It isn't looking good sadly and has probably put the kibosh on me riding down on the bike as I'm travelling down with my partner. I can't really expect her to put up with getting soaked ( or can I ) Rusty Sure you can!

Oh well I don't care if it snows- the Alfa now has functioning brakes and is on song. She's going back to Le Sarthe for the first time in 33 years! Raise a glass to her good fortune guys, we set sail on the rising tide! S

Good for her! Bon Voyage! And good luck, although I hope that you don't need it....

Gotta work today but car is all ready to go, on Seafrance at crack of Sparrows fart tomorrow morning. Off again this morning - looks like the pattern for the whole weekend - off and then on again, I mean.

Well so far so good, reporting live from Stonehenge on route to Poole. 378 miles under our belts and apart from a loose wire that stopped us on the M1 the old Alfa is running like a dream. To borrow Andy's phrase - she's a f**k*n beauty! Time for a beer and a few hours kip. See you all tomorrow.
