Most of you know my life motto continues to be that LIFE IS GOOD.

YESTERDAY was one of those days.

Up at 5.30, showered and ready to rock n roll by 6.30am

Mate Kevin collected me at 6.45 and we drive up to Dunstable to collect La Petit Crapaud (The Little Toad)

Petrol filled at a truck stop and great bacon and egg rolls at leisure (I am always in a hurry to get home) on site plus a nice chat with Jamie the chef before heading down the M1 and onto the M25 homeward.

Amazingly all the roads were open during the whole day.

Back home on my drive by 10.45

I had not even switched the kettle on when mate Fil @sparkplug pulled up outside in his new Citroen Relay van. He is building his new camper, having built an Ambulance camper before and then a yellow Sprinter which eventually blew up on him. The Relay is not quite two years old.

He brought me a really nice amplifier that @engineer had sent.

We did the whole looking at each others cars thing and then went out for a Turkish lunch we had booked.

Back home I managed to force him to take some of my clutter home in his van.

Postman also delivered a parcel from Ernie @pedalcarjoe with some super nice vintage VW T-shirts, stickers and a watercooled badge.

Did I mention life is good.

Amazing day.






Today I will make time to look the Peugot 206 CC over and list things that needs attention.

Upholstery and torn leather seat bolster and exhaust hanger
are on the list.

More to be found I am sure.

Caddy is awaiting a new ECU and Astro just needs to be driven.
