I collected Jackie from MCR airport today. The MCR was a river populated by lunatics doing 90 in walls of spray. We had to use the ShatNav as you couldn’t see the junction signs for the spray from the truckers doing warp factor 9.

No time for retirement, too many things to enjoy!
The trip South was worth it for Settle alone. I’ll be doing it again next year

And that mate, is pure gold. Many of us are more than a wee bit envious.
I’m in. We have an airfield when it’s my turn to use it.
I had a similar experience. Idiots tailgating at 80+ whilst on the brink of aquaplaning. There’s an overpass at Haydock where the water absolutely doesn’t drain, and my car went a bit floaty at about 60, but you could see some cars fishtailling whilst being right up the arse of the car in front, and with another prick right up there arse in turn. A daisychain of nobheads.

Be careful what you wish for.
It’s an absolutely huge lifestyle change and not for everyone. Although I love every second I spend here, a lot of people think it’s what they want but leave after one winter.
I’ve just walked back in from the workshop (aka the garage). It was raining and some of it fell on me. And it was dark. Very dark. So dark I trod on a snail. I am grossed out. And exhausted of course.

Why? The crunch-squish is exquisite. The only regret is that there’s one less gastropod to be roasted with garlic and herb butter.
