Last 2 days been driving down to Dover and then through France. Visited a couple of Great War memorials.

Also had fun doing 70kmh through a 9km tunnel underneith Paris? Needless to say with a res delete the car was in Cupra mode for a good few Km going from 50 to 70kmh through 2nd and 3rd gear :D Only to lift off and slow down again for the pops and bangs hehe. I’m such a child.

We would all do the same.

Drove to Glasgow in the pouring rain, ran over some plant debris on the motorway, arrived at Hotel to find water dripping under car (think it may be condensate from AC). Haven’t seen another CUPRA since leaving home at all. Had food, now time for Beer. Then Foo Fighters , Saturday, Hard Rock Cafe for Sons Birthday Sunday and off to Malta Monday.

This is my (MrsMaypack and Master Maypacks) 5th time of seeing them. MK Bowl twice, Sunderland (just before Dave Grohl went stage diving ) and Etihad Stadium. Enjoyed every single time we’ve seen them.

Well I figured you were not driving there
Just wondered if Valetta, Gozo, St. Julians, St. Paul's Bay etc.
But I also respect your privacy

Sorry. I misread... Going to Mellieha Bay. North of the island. Planning to visit Valletta but mostly MrsMaypack will be horizontal in the sun all day so not much movement away from the pool. Relaxing time to be had.

Possibly discovered my car has a coolant leak:banghead2 And the nearest VW garage is 45 minutes away. So popped over today to get some spare coolant to top it up and got stuck in a diversion due to a cycle race.
So still no coolant and half a day wasted sat in traffic. :banghead:

Been to Mellieha Bay twice. First time hotel in town, second time 'all inclusive' resort just other side of the town. Had a hire car the second time...traffic is a nightmare. People parking in Valetta town nudge the cars so they can park in the gap created! My dad was stationed there during the war. Got 4 x cases in the boot of a Kia Ceed.
 
Mixed sense of enjoyment today.

Completed a 350 mile round trip to view a potential new car.

Took the scenic route on the way home past the glenshee ski centre. Excellent roads and scenery.
Twas a good drive but will probably be my last proper drive in the Leon.

Quick sponge bath few days ago as it had bird poo on it and it’s dried looking like it’s just been waxed.

I used a cheap and not so nasty ceramic coating from wish (was 3 quid a bottle with a cloth and application sponge thing) and that was about 3 months ago, still repels water and washes beautiful.

Can’t recommend it enough.
