One year ago today we left our house with all our things in it and got on a plane and flew away. I thought I'd be back in a few months. I have not returned.

I'd forgotten about this though until Ian brought it up. Like him, I'd advise just not using Booking for a while until they sort their shit out.

yeah the stock ECU settings for an S660 makes it do a huge amount of boost until 4000RPM, then does a progressive ramp-down of the throttle position down to i think 40% open by the time it hits redline. reflashing the ECU to remove that ramp-down nets around 80HP, but needs >100 RON fuel [...]

I was vicar of Felixstowe when Evergiven finally limped in about 6 months late
Most of her cargo was sold for a pittance as it was ‘out of season’
OTOH the townspeople rallied round and gave all the crew a rucksack of goodies (beanies, socks, shampoo) as well as oodles of nuttie & a £25 Sim Card 💝

Caterham Project V “working prototye” as seen at Tokyo Auto Salon. A lot of changes from the Italdesign-built concept shown previously (and currently, at CES). Purportedly a tubular space frame underneath, although the production car may have different construction.

If you’re looking to start the year of the horse with more horses in your home, may I recommend some of these prints from my shop? (but don’t let me stop you stuffing real horses into your house, of course, if you have the means.)

#WeirdCarBS Unicorn spotted today in Thetford Forest.
Looks like a bog-standard Tesla Model S, apart from the stern quarters! I think it's this QWest conversion www.evo.co.uk/tesla/model-...
We may also have seen the owners walking their dog.
