  • Today I started taking this once truly lovely Rover 75 to bits. With only 2 owners and 55k on the clock and such a rare colour it's going to be worthwhile the effort.

    Burton is my favourite presenter. I enjoy his upbeat delivery and almost relentless optimism. I don’t know why but seeing all those Rovers together made me wonder if any of them had met before in another place and it reminded me of someone I used to live hear who appeared to love the Nissan Qasqai. How do I know? They had three of them in their drive. But that could be a coincidence? It could, but explain this, they had consecutive registration numbers. So they had gone to their Nissan dealer and bought three Squashcows at the same time. I think you have to quite like a car to make the fairly significant investment to buy just one, let alone three. Anyway, to the point. These Cashflows had consecutive number plates, but for them to truly be siblings they would have to have consecutive chassis numbers. Then they would have been born at the same time and followed each other through the uterus of Nissan’s factory. I don’t know if they did have consecutive chassis numbers though and I don’t live there any more to ask, and they probably have a new set of Mashedkoi now anyway. Todays ads were an interesting selection, moisturiser and chocolate. It’s too late for today but one day I might only use/consume the items suggested to me in a Project Nigel video. Like Ant and Dec do on their show. I had a pasty earlier. I know it’s a bit early for pasties but I’ve been up for hours today. Not had one for ages so went for a cheese and onion one for a treat. Not as nice as I recall which might turn out to be for the best.

    In due course, you will have to regas the air conditioning system; summers are getting warmer, air conditioning is becoming essential.
    I will also add it looks like Christmas in January with all that 🌨️. Why don't I say that four letter word 🌨️? Because I don't want any where I reside in upstate New York!

    PN-FP? Taking account of the weather I'm thinking the F could well be 'frozen': Frozen Parts; Frozen Pasture; Frozen Paradise; Frozen Panorama; Frozen Parsnip?
