Thx for joining us. Need picture?

My daughter was more interested in the dogs than the cars, but I'll declare it a success none the less!

Went to start the car when leaving and nothing

Messed around with it little bit and I think the starter solenoid wiring got too close the the exhaust and shorted. Bump start got us going and no issues the rest of the way home. Till the next time...

Another fantastic morning, I am humbled again by the friendly welcome of the SoCal gang... and of course the loan of another car by Oscar!

Thanks for the photo Lawrence, that's a corker.
I'll ping you details of some events in Europe for you to think about.

The drive back along the freeway was a serious buzz. Still smiling this morning
