A beautiful morning, I thought that perhaps spring was at last arriving but it clouded over by mid-morning and was really cold. I spent most of the day helping David change the rear brake shoes on his car. I’m hoping that the hassle of doing all this work on his car will encourage him to refrain from the ‘boy racer’ driving technique that eats his tyres, brakes and clutch at an alarming rate, we’ve bought more tyres for David this last year than both our BMWs and Passat combined!
