It will take me longer to move the cavalier out the way and get the cossie out the garage than it will take to drive there!

Had every good intension of polishing it today, but simply cant be bothered at the moment
I put some gel on the front rubber splitter and came back inside

i was going to wash mine, but i think i'll opt for the quick jetblast at a petrol station before i get to the show to remove the major roadkill and then a spruce up once parked - just packed my cleaning bag

You are in luck mate, there is a very good jet wash at tesco's which is literally 2 mins drive from the park
Come off the A14 at the Odeon cinema turn off and head towards town, straight over the small roundabout and then turn left at the next one (next to burger king and pizza hut) and you are there

Its really sunny here at the moment, quite windy though.

Well as far as i know i am going... meant to be on the PF stand... BUT... my 2i has been off road for about 2 months now... been starting it up and all is fine... insurance started on it again yesterday so thought i would take it out for a drive to get re-aquainted... and now its developed a MAJOR knock...

Gunna see if it can be sorted today, but if not then

Fingers crossed guys!!!
