Tis, that's all the external stainless except the gutter trim and the strip along the back of the roof and C pillars, because they're already on the car.

Still got a full set of stainless door sill plates and the bumpers to do...

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

Do let us know if there's much covid bollocks at any borders etc please. I want to get a trip in this year but can't be dealing with endless shit over the common cold.
Last September I rode from Spain to Czechia, via France and Germany. I was only asked to show my covid vaccination certificate by two restaurants over the whole week. The beauty of having no hard border.

My mate came over here last week, landing at Santander. He has a UK certificate showing his two vaccinations and booster, but only had to show it at Plymouth dock when leaving the UK.

The only thing in Spain now is that masks must be worn in hospitals, pharmacies and old peoples homes. A fair % of older people still wear them, but thats their choice, not the governments.

I think you are forbidden from entering France unless you've had all 6? COVID injections?
I know that was the case earlier in the year.

How about 3 for people with normal immune systems?
First, second and a booster.

It started up OK, not moved or started since Feb.
Semaphore indicators not working, washers not working. It needs a bit of fettling. If the house move comes off there will be a garage at home for it.

Assuming that the garage door that hasn't been used for 30 years can be opened. And the vendors remove the rear axle-less A35

Look forward to seeing a two-wheeled barn find baby Austin in the Ebay thread shortly, then. Other than that, hope things progress as planned.....

House move back on again then? I thought you had changed your mind.
