Yesterday was a muddled day. The car went to the garage for some attention to its braking system and was expected home again for tea. A morning stocking up at the supermarket was followed by an afternoon awaiting a call to collect the car. The call eventually came to say the car was having a stop-over and would not be coming home until lunch time today. We got up and despite having porridge for breakfast we went for a run. It was quite hard work as the off road bits were quite gluey underfoot. Some parts of the fields are still under water. The farmers have managed to plough some of the land but it looks very wet and will be a while before they are planting seed. We finished the run on the road, up hill for the last half mile. It always seems to be up hill coming home. The run was just over five miles which exceeded our twenty five mile target for the week. The car came home just after lunch. A gleaming new brake calliper and pads but none the worse for its night on the tiles. If anyone tells you brake callipers are cheap they are lying.
