The flying sea rats also bombarded the gold one today, thankfully it was confined to the window!

That isn’t to bad. The best type of doodl oo is when they have been feeding on blackberries. Now that is something to see and remove.

I feel for you!
Way back when I took my Aircraft Sheet Metal Mechanics course I drove a white MGB-GT. One hot sunny day I happened to park under a power line outside the college. Unfortunately it was blueberry season and the birds were hungry.
When I got out at the end of the day the entire car was covered with baked on purple spots, each one loaded with seeds. Lesson learned!

I'm loathed to remove this, it adds a certain splash of colour to what has to be one of the worst "colours" ever.

Oh and after I ordered the last SLC000090PMA on the shelf from Rimmers, I took the drivers door off the silver shatmobile, fitted a bit of wiring, refitted the door then after putting the door card back on , I clagged in the switch.......



I'm sure that will bring a few more wails of "I would have bought those" when I crush the car when it's MOT expires at the end of the year.

Along with the line free message centre, Harmon Kardon, rear sun blind, cruise control and all of the other useless trinkets

It's now a fairly nicely specced car, but it has to go, and go it will, and baled complete will be the order of the day

One positive note is that the gulls have left the Great Yarmouth market area as nobody is buying and littering chips and ice cream there at the moment. The trouble is that the bu$$ers are swooping over my car now!😣

I clayed and polished the Avensis, and it too is now full of poop. Very grateful Blue has the garage these days. Although collecting dust in there! Stuck to do anything as awaiting stuff from Royal Mail!

Ooh...and nice to see Marmite! Love that car sooo bad! ☺

Just taken a trip in the ZT to my Click & Collect slot. Saving a fortune in fuel, only done 89 miles since lockdown - less than half a week's ordinary motoring, but I would rather be using more fuel!!!
