On the ferry with a pint and a packet of crisps.

Only just made it though after my compulsory breakdown on every spa/ring trip...



Had the battery warning light come on half way down to Newcastle, just lucky I was near Knockhill and they had a friendly mechanic in to help put a new connection on the alternator before the car died and ruined my holiday!

Time for a few beers and chill out! biggrin

About an inch of snow on the ground at the track, closed at te moment but the track officials are confident it will be clear and open by lunch time, back at the hotel for a second breakfast.
