Well the Focus passed the MOT...


...WITHOUT needing a thing done to it! Quite a few advisories, though, including the headlamps (they are plastic so perhaps they are fogging over), rust (in the floor), brake pipes, exhaust bits. But nothing to actually fail it on. So I have taxed it (205 pounds now!) for another year, and will buy a new electric window for the drivers side soon.

Yesteday (Tuesday) went to the docs, got a book list and a list of courses for my troubles, not really worth it. Also fixed up the front of Julies "studio" with new wood, the old stuff had bent and buckled in the sun and the insulation was showing, wanted to sort it before it rained. Also fitted luggage to bike, and then we had a BBQ, us four plus Nan and Dan's mate Ian.

Off to work for a day today, Army presentation tonite, half day tomorrow and then it's serious bike packing time before setting off to Wales Friday morning. Excited and worried at the same time if that is possible!
