Just The Two of US

Saturday 4 October 2008




It's been a while since I last posted and i've been busy.

My eye has now healed nicely although it did look like i'd had an argument with a door for about a week. I'm just waiting for a follow up appointment with the consultant to see if the injection did any good.

Our trip to cornwall was great. We had the best weather and spent all of our time in shorts. We stopped off on our way down at Jamaica Inn for a drink and got to the campsite at lunchtime. Penhale was a really nice site and you could see the sea from the field. Our new tent was superb, lots of space and we could actually stand upright in it. We cycled to the Eden Project which was fantastic. I went the year it opened and it has changed so much. We went to the Lost gardens of Heligan which were also fantastic, it helped being warm and sunny. Visits to Meveagissy, Padstow (with an unfortunate incident), we cycled along the Camel Trail and went to the Lobster Hatchery. We went to Charlestown of an evening for a drink on the harbour and cooked each evening (except one) on our little red bucket bbq at the campsite. It was lovely.

Our next trip away is in December to Wales (mad, I know) to the WRC Wales Rally.

Work is still really buy at the moment but we're taking on as much as we can in this climate. I'm sure Classic Cars will eventually feel the pinch, just as they did in the late 80's. So, while people want us to work on their cars, we will!

Michael is still very busy with freelance work, I have to send off his tax return this weekend- I prepared it weeks ago.

We are looking after Michael's Nephew's Jake and Sam luckily, we bought a Wii last weekend, so that should keep them occupied as it's supposed to be a crappy weekend weatherwise.
