Winter weather

'Tour de Yorkshire'

Can't quite get my head around that phrase siting there watching the bikes on telly, you would expect exotic locations when you say tour de.....

So is Yorkshire exotic?

or if you ask would you get an Ecky thump 

Ha ha. Watch today's Whitby, Robin Hood's Bay and Scarborough beautiful coastline

Yorkshire (the word) definitely doesnt go with  Tour de.

Tour de Yorks?

Hope everyone is doing well. Can't believe it's nearly the end of October. Guess there will be a limit to how many days we can be topless now.

Snow forecast here tonight wrap up warm

Snow came but all gone now, hopefully that's winter done lol need a blanket in the KA the seats are cold. The windscreen doesn't clear as quick as the Wind either.

Drove my car with the top down and the heated seats on to a Durham garage this morning and came away with a new car. Don't disown me yet. I have traded my black 2010 Dynamique S model Wind with 44,000 miles on the clock for a lovely white 2011 GT Line Wind with 10,000 miles on the clock. Picking it up on Tuesday afternoon.
And Barbs before you say anything I honestly don't like the blue colour. My choice would be White, Red, Black and Blue in that order. The thought of keeping the white car clean instead of the black is wonderful.

White is ok   glad to see you are still one of us.

Well I was considering a Mini Roadster but sense prevailed. Have to say the Wind looks lovely in white. The only thing that lets the car down is the alloys which have all been kerbed, obviously one careless owner although the rest of the car is in almost brand new condition.

I like the white Wind but prefer BLUE. In France there were quite a lot of white and they did look good.

Took the Wind out yesterday first time in 3 weeks. It ws great to drive it again and those heated seats came in useful.

-1c today and managed to get the roof down.  With appropriate gear and the heating cranked, it was fine.
