Up early-ish to get going and head down to near Rye after being offered a “complete but needing a bit of work” rear bumper after the other guy offering a broken one turned into what seems to be a bit of a w@nker.
Looked like a great day to tint windows.
But priorities.
SatNav took me down some real narrow lanes and back roads, but makes for an interesting drive again.
Also scored some large apples from Justin’s trees, and most importantly,,a VW centre cap he had found by the roadside presented me with the ring I was looking for to keep a centre cap in place.
One of the toys that go into his camper van……
Loads of clever touches.
Like these old denim jeans, recycled to form door upholstery, and also have pockets to keep various items in.
While there, we also looked at his Baywindow bus with a home grown Subaru conversion.
Filmed for @grenade specifically.
Apparently a real pleasure out on the motorway.

After two hours chatting about everything from Solar to fireworks and making gunpowder, I headed out home.
Saw a small shunting loco, trainspotters will correct me.
And pulled over to get a pic of a rainbow during a break in the rain.
Back home via my local village to pick up meds and some random foodstuffs.
Unloaded back home.
Chuffed.
And laid to rest.
This made me grin again.
Got to be better than this one.
If I can remove it successfully and reinstall the new one, and then clean it up and fill the dent, or soften and push the plastic out, followed by paint and colour matching.
After a coffee and sandwich it was 3.00pm and I decided that sometimes sitting doing nothing beats going out to tint glass or do something constructive, so weekend on.
Netflix and another coffee next.
