Starting the journey home from the Dolomites

There isn’t a section for returning users, so thought Startline was probably the best place to put this. For those of you who don’t know/remember me, I’m Mat and was a member here 3-4 years ago - used to have a green 1.8 Zetec before Covid job loss forced me to sell. For those of you I have met up with previously - hello again, can’t wait to see you all. My partner will confirm I’ve been a right miserable and grumpy sod since selling up, and so delighted to report that I’ve finally managed to rectify the situation. Introducing the Jaffa Cake. A 2.0 Duratec SEiW Deal agreed today and will be collected this coming week at some point. I’m based South Lincs, towards Peterborough. Looking forward to one of your run outs to some cake at some point @Julie Hall - WSCC AO Representative and @AndrewBClarke. Will be in touch with you too@Martin Bell - (Bellyboy) East Anglia AO as I think you’re my closest AO? Thanks Mat

I was familiar with the gastronorm range but they were all the wrong sizes to fit in the Xi sills , this size is sold specifically for scoop ice cream . I wanted a metal one to restore the stiffness in the sill as it involves cutting a large hole in the sill .

Took a bit of finding in the right size after spotting them in an ice cream parlour, I was not that confident of making my own , aluminium never folds where I want it too. I probably wont fit them until post IVA and door refit just to make sure the covers open without problems .

Could be a bargain for someone. https://ebay.us/m/8PvhNT

Previous Alps trips have been 4 cars- this number works well with train & ferry cabins being for 4 people. We were joined by an Italian WSCC member @mTT97 for the day on Friday. Hence it’s just @Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman & @Stu Faulkner and I this time

Will be in Norway so not this time, despite Westie taxed and ready to go! 😝

They look the danglers young sir

None of this fancy European stuff for me unfortunately, just a mundane visit to B&Q. Any excuse to get out!

130 miles last night. That cleared the cobwebs

MOT day today, needless to say zero advisories 😎 Not the best photo 🫣

Prom ready!

LiFePO4 battery 20Ah and charger (charger more expensive than Battery! but seems reputable company, IP65, thick cables, solid connetor, and few modes and app for more experienced users . Battery with peak discharge current 50A. Not sure, but hope it wil be sufficient for reverse elecric motor.

Time for bed

Either are good, but make sure you're not buying cheap copies. No problem buying from Mouser.

A box of Amphenol AT/ATM connectors from Mouser for my ongoing re-wiring
