Burnt Orange/Bronzy colour in the Ability DIY shop car park in Sunderland around 10am this morning.
I hope you weren’t there for a set of ladders!

You can get collapsible ladders that will fit in the boot.

It must be catching! Only 10 days to go before it comes off SORN and will get its first run in a few months. As an over 70 I may have no where to go but who cares. :driving:

Followed a white E89 YK60 ??? With red leather all the way through the Blackwall tunnel, along the A12 and onto the A406. Roof down. Good lad. Unfortunately, I was in the other half’s Audi Q as I had to take equipment back to the office. She had my E89.
Coming back home, a black E89 (Roof up) was coming out of the tunnel as I went in.

Yes! This can only be a good thing though, surely? :)
I'm working out of Bridgwater at the moment because of this Covid cack, otherwise you'd see me all the time in mine going through Clevedon to HQ!

Oops!? I meant E85 with the top up on a sunny day. Probably not working :P
