30th August 2019 - Back from Bolton - Limping

Thought for the day:"If Russians pronounce B’s as V’s then Soviet."

a daily Boris...


And so a trip to Bolton (West Houghton) was a little more traumatic than expected..  5 Miles from the Hall a slight grinding started on the front wheels.. one of those annoying sounds that you cannot quite work out where it is coming from .. was it the back - was it the front left ?
Seems that applying the brakes stopped it so thinking that maybe a brake shoe was rubbing...

However - after the meeting - rather than hang around and come back the next day - I decide that if I am to wait in a lay-by somewhere waiting for the RAC then it is better to set off early ...


So.. clue the one time that the satnav decides to play up and send me through Llandrindod Wells and then Builth Wells extending the journey by another 15 miles!!  as the sounds get worse and worse...

As we come into Felinfoel - we are really limping and the teddies are doing their best to keep the old girl running - I can feel their empathy !!!

And we get home - and park up for the night - well for the fortnight really - Not sure how much damage has been done - but we will find out on my return ..

For now it is a day to pack and think about getting to the airport tomorrow - will be an early start - but at least it is Bristol rather than Luton or Gatwick...

and talking of exotic places...



So - a couple of memories of Mythodea 2019 which popped up on my feed today ...



and a vollsanger for good luck ...

Cheers
