with TR Hobbs in Nottingham, finally going to get the awful patch weld sorted that was done for a previous MoT on the drivers side.

Any suggestions of what to do when up there? We are travelling up the day before.

TIA

Wooloton park is a natural history museum set in a deer park with a lovely walk around the lake- if weather permits,- also tea rooms and food.

That's what I would have liked to done, but when I asked Tom he said he preferred to work without eyes upon him all the time, so respected his decision and walked down to Kimberly and had a cuppa and cake in Sainsbury's before going in to Ilkeston on the bus. Wandered around there till about 12 then had a leisurely lunch and a pint in the pub, got back to Tom's about 3pm'ish and it was all done.

All booked in with Tom to have both sills sorted on the 25th but as I'm leaving the car with him until the 28th , I'm going to ride the trains with a return ticket to come back and collect when done.
