Went for a quote to get new carpet fitted. If I'd known what a fuss it is to fit a new carpet, I would never have ordered one! No quote yet, Boss was on a break..
Air and pollen filters arriving later today. Hmmm...fitting a pollen filter is probably at the limit of my diy skills, even with the excellent "how to" available here. Garages just love folk like me!
Tomorrow - off to get my alloys refurbished. No wonder I'm so poor! At least the bus fare home is free, thank you Scottish Government!
My new Worx Hydroshot arrived yesterday - might get to play with it later today if the rain ever stops...cherry turtle wax foam awaits!

Btw, the garage informed me that all those people with the 'free' extra 6 months MOT only get a further 6 months when they pass their test. Can't have garages missing out because of Coronavirus...
The MOT is currently extended by 6 months from it's expiry, you don't get an 18 month MOT test if tested.

Just get the car tested as normal John
