Might be in the Ford yet - went to take Edward II to the gararge for a MOT, no fire, no siree no way.
Battery not up to much, so put a spare one on which turned out to flat also. Took both to the shed, charged Edward's. Battery back on after work and he fired up no problem. bloody prima donnas. Up to the garage but no chance of a test til next week, too much else on. They might have time for a look-over to see what needs doing. But that doesn't leave long to fix the inevitable faults, then get him tested.
Mind, I could probably shave about 2 hours off the journey in the Ford, but it's not so good for sleeping in, so I'd have to bring the tent... 's also not really what you'd call an off-roader, although suprisingly capable on smooth slippery stuff.
