Way down the road

Last week i was talking to a friend who is away at the moment about driving. The conversation got to the favourite places to drive and in my opinion it has to be the tree lined roads in France. My friend told me of there favourite places to drive 

We both are alike with our love of driving when i heard the email tell me i had an email arrive. The picture below is stunning it looks better than and tree lined avenue i had driven down. 

Well that's my dream road to drive down but then it's the love of driving for me.

Who wants a van

During the years i have been driving i have had a number of vans. I can't explain but i just love owning a van. At one point i had a new car but nothing gives the feeling to me that a van does.

A time has come when i must consider my present van has to go. Recently my van has cost 857€ due to urgent repairs to the engine. The injector pump cost 700€ and then the belt that drives the power steering pump and alternator.

The final nail in the coffin was the timing belt snapped causing a possible need for major work to the cylinder head.

The search is on for another van, the reason i need a van is to carry my spices but also the tables.
