David, I work the system the other way. 3 years ago after my two major
operations I was given the all clear 'as good as new' so I bought a motor
bike. Triumph Bonneville. No going out in the wind and rain etc. Had enough
of that when I was a lot younger. What has happened over the last three
years? Wind, Rain, more rain, wind, cold, more rain. 85 miles on the clock
in 3 years and there were 7 of them when I picked the bike up . More layers
of polish than miles on the clock almost ;-)

So three weeks ago I sold it.

Since then? Sun, lovely days. No wind, more sun.

I have been banned from buying another motor bike and even told off when I
looked at an open top car.

Mike

No, no. Just wash the car. No need to buy all that barbecue stuff!

Well the car was washed this morning for the first time in well over a
year, It was OK whilst the dust and pollen etc was spread evenly over
it, but the slight shower over night was just enough to streak it and
make it look dirty, so we will see, so far it's just getting hotter and
the few clouds are getting smaller and fewer, though the rain radar
shows showers moving up the coast of Cornwall and Devon and heading for us..
