What To Do On A Tuesday

Sometimes you just can't keep away LOL. Here's an image of a beautiful country church too, worth a visit.

Roadside

One of the things I dislike about modern cars is the lack of a spare tyre, even a so-called Space Saver. 

Obviously without the Spare there's also no need to supply a jack and tools either. Manufacturers often claim this is to improve fuel efficiency but I suspect it is more that they have realised they can save a few quid. Plus they can invoice the customer a small fortune to supply this "Optional Extra" from new.

Instead cars come with liquid tyre repair compound in an aerosol container. This is great if you're really stuck but if you've picked up a nail or screw, using the compound means repair shops are unable to patch what might have been an otherwise perfectly good tyre. This then turns a £25 (AU$50, US$35) repair into a replacement tyre in excess of £100. 

All this is to say, after a recent experience, I've found a supplier of OEM Space Saver tyres, together with scissor jack etc all for the bargain price of £140 (AU$280, US$190). Given my previous runs of poor (tyre) fortune, this will pay for itself in no time. 

Maybe I can rest easy now LOL.

Puffin

Cos he's old enough to buy his old man booze LOL.

Crumble

Just look what has arrived, yum!

In my humble opinion, this Aussie delight is superior to the Cadbury Crunchie.

Aldworth

St Mary's church, absolutely gorgeous.

Mother And Baby Home

Just watched the Long Lost Family special about the UK Mother and Baby Homes, that operated in Britain until the early 1970's.

Here's a link to some information about the one I was born in.
