Well yesterday it was thanks to my neighbour. I've not tried it today.
I had to keep the car running while I tipped everything in various bays and then took it on some faster roads for a while to be safe. :-D

Well, it's been quite pleasant here. At least out my back where it is sheltered and south facing. I had thought of going out for a drive somewhere while we still have the weather, but the jungle had to take precedence :-(

It's very chilly this evening.

Yes, Belle, but they are not nesting there at present, so I'm giving it the thrashing it deserves lol ;-) :-D :-D

I don't use the car much. I went shopping Friday?.

It has an electrical fault. The lights go on and off and people think I'm flashing at them, so I put them on. I had left them on, but usually they go off automatically when the engine is off. The neighbours wife noticed the side lights were on when the lights were switched off

What you been up to today?

LondonBelle

LondonBelle Report 22 Sep 2025 19:33

That made me larf about people thinking you flashing them :-D :-D That would account for your flat battery then you will just have to check and make sure that all the lights are off :-)

There was a time when Joe and GS1 went for a spin late one evening. But when they parked up, the lights refused to go out. He called the RAC, but eventual they went off by themselves :-0

It was lovely Belle. I was so choked up! Then I when they played Daydream Believer I was away! Then the photos were shown, and then up came the one of me and Ann!!!
What a really lovely thought. I have been in contact with V and thanked her. She is heartbroken <3

It's old Belle. About 18 years. We've had it about 14 of those.
I'm hoping it will give me another year, before my cataracts take hold :-0 :-D

LondonBelle Report 22 Sep 2025 19:43

Yes, the photos set me off big time....I didn't know there was a picture of you :-0

I was wondering whether to send a email but didn't know whether I would be intruding <3
