Paint stripper

Back from a trip to the garage where the nearside mirror was finally re-attached (although the paint was stripped when the tape came off – my fault for leaving it on for 10 months of course..). Battery output & voltmeter also checked due to some odd readings whilst driving but all seems in order. I am still paranoid about the car after the farce of a paint job last summer. I shouldn’t be letting it get to me still, but it does. However, Le Mans 24 Hour is about five weeks away so let the excitement begin! My chum Caz is still having electrical/ECU problems with his supercharged LM500, but he normally fixes these things in time! We have decided to get the ferry from Hull to Zeebrugge & travel down through Belgium (& even Paris if we are feeling brave!). Two, no three selling points for this course of actions; firstly, less poorly maintained, over-populated speed camera infected UK roads, secondly, the journey there & back is broken up with a bit of sleep, & finally Caz managed to get one of the cars booked for £1! Very impressive, & more beer money of course! It should be great fun & will make a pleasant change from traipsing down to Folkestone for the Chunnel crossing. I shall, of course, report back at a later date…
