      I refuse to wear anything with a hood, with the exception of the waterproof. They tried to persuade me to wear a hooded sweatshirt at work. "I am not a bloody monk!"

      Thanks for tip coach I'll go and check my 1940s Rover just to be sure

      My Peugeot doesn't like sensing rain when on what passes for 'intermittent' wiping. It's really called 'auto wiping', except that the driver has no control over the frequency of the wiping, and the car generally ignores light rain...

    3. coachmann

      In general I like the idea but I must admit i have ruined a few wiper blades on ice over the years.

  18. This mornings order to Hornby's website has prompted an email thanking for order, giving order number and the rest of it. I think one can presume mail order department is now operating 'normal' practice. :)
