Dursley was our first destination yesterday after departing from our really fab digs in Saint Mellons, near Cardiff.
It was great to meet Rod who had got in touch to see if we could come over work on his TF 160 (in HFF) that he’s owned for the past 10 years and enjoyed many trips around the UK and abroad in.
We replaced the head gasket, and carried out the cambelt service for him. Really nice car to work on with no issues. Plus we were so pleased to find when we arrived that he had a garage as we weren’t looking forward to another soaking!
From there we went on to Gloucester where it was lovely to meet Jack who was needing the hydragas pumping up on his fab 1.3 Metro, that he had learnt to drive in and had kept hold of. Now the car is back to the correct ride height, he will be getting out in her once more.
On to our next digs a few miles along the road, another great spot that we last stayed in during lockdown when we got back on the road again.
I had a cracking walk first thing to our call this morning, but unfortunately when we got there the chap wasn’t in as there had been a bit of confusion over dates. Not to worry these things happen, at least it we had an earlier than planned trip home, which was good to get back and see our very chatty cat! We’ll see Brian later in the year when we venture down that way again. A good few days on the road to kick-start the year.
Looking forward to seeing a few people tomorrow for drop-off day at the workshop. – https://ift.tt/SXkKLfp
