Drove it to Caernarfon on Saturday, drove it back today.

EML came on. CBA to get Tech2 on it, though suppose I ought to before its trip tomorrow..

TBE? You've been driving too gently :-X ::)
Not checked the codes, due to a combo of CBA and time constraints. But probably. As I am Miss Daisy, as you know...

Drove it to Ipswich, via Sereks to get the chilly machine working better, then to Newmarket, then to Ely, then to Addenbookes A&E, then back to Newmarket.

Will probably need yet more gas tomorrow, but at least I found Morrisons at Ipswich is 49.7p :)

Ipswich Morrisons is always cheapest in the area. Beware though, they don't open until 7 am ::)

Today I will be checking and preparing it for a trip to the Lakes... I suspect we will push 1000 miles or so in 4 days. Then tomorrow I'm racing a train :-X ::)

All that in between callouts today! Oh... That reminds me, I must ring Ford up and tell them what else is needed when my van goes in for service tomorrow!

Fitted new Eternal exhaust for 2.0 on the 2.2, last one fitted in 2011, so 5 years service  :)

Bit fiddly, normally a fatty little admin is about as second pair of hands. But it all went on well, apart from Ive disturbed the heat shield around the cat, it's loose now  :(

Drove TBE back from Ipswich on Friday.

Drove the Battlebus up to Nottingham yesterday to get some electricity in it. Admired Project-E whist there :)

Fitted Hirschmann bumper antenna to the project to run the carphone. Might be able to make a call now at some of the places I have to work.  ;D
