Had a piddling injector. Number bloody four...
Watched a couple of vids about resealing it and decided....errr not to.
So I've managed to order one, sorry @Mukiwa, for Tuesday so we can do the 5.5hr journey to break stuff on my bus this coming weekend I do have another injector from a vauxhall omega of the same year. It will go in and after some cross reference via the inter-wibble, I decided errr no.. if I remember correctly, when the omega was on the road the injector symbol would flash up.. so, although it never leaked we decided to dig into our savings... (Unfamiliar word) and get a new Bosch unit with the brown plug. Damn. But for love of landrover, I'm going broke. and we are going to break stuff this weekend...watch this space.

I was tempted to use the omega unit If I hadn't had the sensor issues, but I wanted it to never return or have to pißß about with again... Ever....

We took the pool down last year because no bugger used it and now it's in demand ... It's gone to the tip I'm afraid....View attachment 179789

Topped 30C today, that's why I'm on the computer, too hot for manual work and it cools down next week.
That was a long way to go for a day out when you have good places virtually on your doorstep.

I'd of rather kept the fuel money... But our Sharon wanted to go and investigate for future camping prospects. There are massive amounts of places here for camping.. it we never traveled by not being curious.

How did you guess??
Île d'Oléron has some beautiful places for the camping kind, I imagine there are umptine more places local and not so.

Love northern Spain, if you are into adventure and walking, try the Carres Gorge I have no head for heights, but I made it, it's spectacular. B&B places used to be so cheap that it wasn't worth camping, but I think there are plenty of good sites if you like that sort of thing.

Noirmoutier is my wife's favourite island retreat in the caravan, wonderful safe sandy beach.

Time for a cup of tea and some biscuits

Sables d'Olonne. Not been to Ile d'Axe, seen it from a boat though.
We like La Rochelle for a day out and Chavigny to watch the eagles and other birds fly from the Chateau is good, going to try the Velo Rail this year if we have time.
The kids would love Futuroscope, I don't like theme parks but even I enjoyed it.
