| Took Mabel to Yate today for her MOT and major service from those nice chaps at Danbury. A good excuse to sneak a peek at the few remaining T2s they have there. Apparently there are 25 left and they will be specced up in anticipation rather than staying as shells. Nice last edition on display, too!

| Been busy with the silcone edging once again, this time for the poptop. I was for ever trying to keep the black edging clean and free from muck collecting in it, that plus the metal beading inside was rusting. So decided to give the same edging I tried, only bigger, on the guttering a go. Not sure how long it will last, but at least it should stay cleaner   Whilst I was at it I used some of the leftover guttering bit to do the edge of my newly powder coated rear bumper to give it some extra protection from stuff being thrown up by the rear wheels  ________________________________________________________________________________  Ginger man without a ginger van  | |

| Excellent job and it certainly gives a fresh look to those edges. What did you use to stick it into place? | |

| For the third weekend running we went out for an adventure with Scooby - this time down to Bournemouth for the day (see else where on the Forum) - today we treated Scooby to a Meguiars wash this morning (the third in as many weeks). He doo like a clean coat  ________________________________________________________________________________ Proud winners of Spike's Trophy 2017

Same here, original chrome one was replaced with white plastic which has gone all pitted, plus it looks like I need to get the tub off anyway as the bottom edge of the grill is going discoloured where the water lies. (Time to order a spray can instead of a touch up pen..   ) | |
