Finally got karen in the car!

[Chris Brading]

She didn’t mind the cold, just the rain, hail and snow she objected to!

Nothing like a country pub incentive on a warm sunny lunchtime Chris  

Remember with a westie in the rain, you need extra wipers on the inside of the screen too.

[Alan Cutler (Adge) - Dorset AO]

Well done, I find a warm pub and Proseco is a good incentive. Stay over 40 and rain goes over the top! Just the inside of the screen to keep clear! Hail is a different story though, gets a bit painful! Enjoy your outings.

[Chris Brading]

Karen likes Prosecco, but unfortunately she doesn’t like duel carriageways when it gets stressful, so off the fast flowing A34 to crawl around Abingdon getting soaked, yes hail is very painful, fortunately it only hit one eye at a time so maintaining 50% vision mostly.

 I was worried about electrical load as was going into unchartered load with everything on full speed, wipers,heated screen, heater,lights but it was fine.

currently the passenger seat  is occupied  by a dehumidifier

Wendy wasn't at all keen on drives out in Westie....

This much improved after she'd driven it herself on track at Curborough.

[Chris Brading]

Thanks Dave,

She a dreadful passenger since getting hit in the side doing one of her rat runs to work 15 yeas ago.   She's a dreadful driver as well always has been, but you are right and I will not give up trying to get her behind the wheel.

[Onliest Smeg David]

Curborough is great for the nervous as there's only one car on track at any one time.

Wendy has since driven at WSCC track day Blyton three times, and sometimes when we're out on our own on quiet country roads.
