It's almost 12 hours since he was last on line. Where do you think he is? He can't still be driving around can he?  :o

Got back home about 4:30 after a horrendous drive round the north circular and first 100 miles of M1. Roads cleared a bit after that so I could let rip.

I was a bit concerned after driving about 70 or 80 miles. Hmmmmm......this is not a proper alfa I thought. Then my doubts were dispelled, the emissions light came on ;D. That's more like it, I thought, but still not convinced. Thought I'd give the windscreen a bit of a wash. The wipers have got a mind of their own, and park where ever they feel like when stopped. DEFINATELY an alfa ;D ;D

Complete lowdown later. A bit knackered now.

PS. No one told me about the STR button.........WOW!!!!!!!!!!!! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

He's found a nice tunnel, and is going back and forth through it with the windows down!  8-)
