Didn’t see the Grinder picked up the solder station (number one son has mysteriously teleported both my good solder station and rework station to his house in Leeds..
and a battery soldering iron, which I used last night to resolder the number plate PCb for my Contemporary Se.. judge and jury out on that one as it cools down to quickly for the way it operates.

Default Window Wipers (Michelin )

While I was get a few essentials today in our local Aldi at the counter was these wipers below.

£4.98 each

Michelin all sizes never used them before so am hoping they are going to be good, I purchased a 22" & 21" so the one wiper will not catch the windscreen outer seal.
