Seven at last

I do feel I've been avoiding the Caterham this month. Too cold or just the faff with the cover.

Worked on the Alpine first thing then - the replacement light was rusted onto the screws so needed a lot of drilling etc. In the end I had to cut one plastic part out and try to re-create it in the German Super-Glue-plus-filler compound. Well see how I get on.

Then pm SAAB a run to the boat and a swift 2h shakedown sail.

Then the sun was still out so Mk7 to the garage for petrol for the boat and then Caterham down to the marina in the dying sunset.

Fine drive there, but on the way back the road was closed and the diversion took me through the small back roads across the peninsula. If that was not bad enough they had been resurfaced recently - I mean spray and pray and covered the roads with grit.

The April winner was the Alpine at almost 300 miles - if you don't count the Mk7 at almost 800.
