Took the Jag to the 'Car Hospital' for them to quote for doing the back door (alloy corrosion in three small spots) and was quoted £400 (plus the dreaded) and I am so far out of touch I have no idea if that is a good price or not! Whatever it's booked in for the end of June to be done, it's driving me crazy(er) so just get it sorted out.

While there, Bella jumped out of the half-open back window the mad sod. Took her to the vets (before this event, she dint hurt herself, or, more importantly, the car!) as it's her 5 month birthday and I wanted to know her weight.She is now 19.5 kgs, she's pretty bloody big already and stands well above Chester already.

Going for a walk around the town (which is stunning) and a couple of beers. Off to stay in Alcaniz tomorrow (only a short ride) as Aragon circuit is there in Motorland

I am told most of Europe is good but the French are still fucking about wanting covid tests 24 hours before travel. That was what a customer who is taking a bus back to Poland yesterday told me. He was well pissed off spending 40 quid on a test just to do 30km in France on his way home.

I won't be near Spain if avoiding froggyland.

Utterly sick of the bullshit though.
