'Well I Never' x 3

OK so I bit the bullet and looked at the Alpine - research pointed to timing if not fuel flow so I started there. Everything was tight and in place though.

So I started it up (reluctantly it started) and let it warm. It ran fine so we went for a tentative run. It was great - in fact it went better than it had done for weeks... 

'Well I never' I thought and went around the block. Perhaps the fuel outlet was getting blocked and I cleared it by letting it flow out.

Then I was just parking it up when a woman got out if her car and walked up the drive. I assumed she had come to see Jana as they were talking but she apologised, walked past Jana and came over to see the Alpine. She told me she had followed me all the way from Ipswich into the village and was so excited to see it !

All a bit odd until we recognised each other. It was Talitha the owner of Mildred the Commer - the grand daughter of Lord Rootes. 'Well I never' I thought.

Then PM I had both the Aston tags re-set with new batteries.

Finally worked on the Goodwood photos and came up with this after using Lightroom.


That's more like it I thought and quite easy. 'Well I never'.
