That is good news Bob.

Sorry to hear about your friend, glad you made it to the funeral.

Cool Back to the Smoke

Taking my brother in law home to North London tomorrow. Early(ish!) start, I want to leave by 7am, cannot go any earlier as Michael is not an early bird.

Will be taking Banana up the A38-M5-M4-M25 and A1. It’s the old route I used to travel there and back. So should you see us don’t forget to wave, toot or flash.

Cool

Done the trip in 5 hours and 15 minutes, stopped for 45 minutes at the services on the M4. So the journey time was Four and a half hours and we covered 250 miles and Banana never missed a beat. Warp Factor 3 and a bit was achieved a few times.

Cool

Finally back home, again. Left Michael’s at 04.30 this morning and was home, kettle on, by 08.55. One bladder stop on the M4. The only hold up was at the Tamar bridge. I wound the elastic band up, and Warp Factor 3 and a bit was achieved quite a few times.

Over the last fortnight Banana has covered 1339 miles virtually trouble free.
And all thanks to Dave and Matt.
