I had the BEST afternoon.

Met up with Richard, a guy I met at a local car meet last week and convoyed up to the most lovely house, it felt like France tbh. Got given apples from the orchard. Sale due to bereavement, the owner has been trying to seek an enthusiast who will give it a good home.

We ended up tinkering and getting it running. I discovered what was up with it so felt smug smug smug

Very nice, way out of my price range. Ex wedding car. Not perfect but no major faults really. V. shiny.

Then saw Mat the Cat in his T35 on the way home!

No.

That will scrub off the illusion of talent and all the sense of achievement :lol:

That was well spotted, not something obvious that you would think to check initially.
