It's been lovely and warm in Carmarthenshire today John. You're visiting a lovely coastline, hope the weather holds for you.

Blimey six and a half quid now to get over the water,but it's free to come back.

We are off to Perran Sands Cornwall in the morning. Bucket and spade packed to make sandcastles with my grandson. Mike.

Quality always costs John, you should know that being a Lexus owner !

At least it's free for you to go home.

As expected,801.7 miles of faultless motoring from my £500 'shed'. There are only three makes of older car that I would trust to take me on a journey such as that,Lexus Mercedes and Saab. She returned about 30 mpg,as did my late MK3 when driven to Somerset four years ago. The last time we went to the same place,we took my wife's Mercedes E320,and the Lexus beat the Merc hands down on comfort,though of course not on economy as the Merc would have done roughly 36 mpg. The 311 mile 'door to door' trips were done with two breaks each way of about 45 minutes each,and not once did I feel even slightly uncomfortable. The Merc would have had me shifting about in the seat after a couple of hours.

Left Haverfordwest at 08.35 and arrived home at 16.17.,but lost about 30 minutes on the M25 due to a series of 'incidents' (nothing new there then).including a young lady whose little Peugeot had expired in lane two and was stranded there.

Hurrah for Lexus.
