Salvage from the Wreckage

Don’t judge a book by its cover

Or an album. These are two recent LPs. Both excellent. Both with terrible covers.

On Monday, I dropped the dodgy tyre from C’s mini off at the tyre place. They said that they don’t get many loose wheels from Minis. When they saw my van, they said ‘Ah it’s from a classic Mini?’. Nope.
Then picked Mum up for an outing to Stafford to pick up two new front wings - much cheaper collected than sent by carrier! Lunch at a proper transport caff (‘the Kabin’).

Lots of 50mph speed limits on the M6. I didn’t mind! And the van averaged 52mpg! Despite have the streamlining of a typewriter.

Picked up the tyre - just needed sealing against the rim - so not fitted well by the other, more expensive, tyre place!
