Tonbridge Wells…
Day 1 of 6 – Latest Tour South.
Yesterday morning found us at the workshop to pack the van ahead of our latest tour to the south of the country.
Plus we were so pleased to meet Mik and Sarah, finally, when they came over from York to collect their MGF ‘Tess’ that had been in with us for a few things. Great to see Andrew again, who dropped off his TF with us.
This morning we headed to Tonbridge Wells, where we’re staying this evening, which proved a perfect spot to get some things looked at on ‘Pearl’, Adrian’s very well travelled TF.
The seals that Adrian had recently fitted were still leaking the drivers side window needed adjusting, it was also noticed that the cable tensioner in the soft-top had snapped, this would account for the amount of play in the soft-too edge and the inevitable and annoying ingress of rainwater!
The exhaust flexi was blowing slightly at the joint, so this was taken to pieces and resealed, being an early Mike Satur 4-2-1, it didn’t have a tubular insert, so next time at the workshop Jon will make one to fit it.
Good to see him and have a cuppa and a catch-up in the car park. Hope his journey back through the Dartford crossing isn’t as hideous as it looked when we came over the bridge, miles and miles of queues!
What fantastic weather, made the most of it with a lovely walk through the local woodland this evening. ☀️ – https://ift.tt/ir1ITX3
