For those few people over on my Patreon, you already know what the new thing that's incoming is.
Everyone else, you'll have to wait and see. It's simultaneously very weird and very mundane. It has already broken down and did so many, many miles from home so is on an unattended recovery and will be with me within five working days. I would have done a normal recovery but frankly with the way my health still is, there's no way I could have stood out in the cold for X time. This is all part of whatever the illness actually is that I have, when I get too cold I begin to seize up until I get to the point that I can't physically move. When I warm up again I then tend to have all over body tremors, which is just great, and a bone deep pain in every single joint. So an unattended recovery seemed more wise. A friend took me home, and I'm very grateful for that.
Unfortunately, the break down was not one I could fix where I was, it needed more involved tools than even I carry. It is an easy fix when I get it home at least, so that's good. There's also some jobs I wasn't expecting to have to do and a lot of jobs I was expecting that aren't needed at all, so it's a bit of a mixed bag.
Not a keeper this one, it will be moving on when I've done what I need to do with it. Should make for some interesting content all the same, and a handful of videos too no doubt.
The Princess was not a fan of being left alone for five days in the rain and only let me have three cylinders today until she'd warmed up. Condensation on ignition components is the cause there, an issue that is resolved by driving the car as often as possible so that things stay nice and dry. A few miles and things had dried out and normal service was resumed, happily.
