The ups and downs of Elise ownership. Decided to take the car out so checked the battery which was flat so got it on charge, but not before I discovered the front hatch is only just still hanging on – looks like a clam off job to fix too. Then open the boot to discover it was full of water as the drain hole had blocked, so boot bag emptied and hung up to dry. Not the best start.

Roll on a few hours and the children are finally in bed so burble out of Sale and up to Alderly Edge to start an interrupted run out to Macc then up the cat and fiddle then over axe edge to Longner, then Hartington, then back to Buxton. Back up the C&F as far as the A54 then all the way till the lights, quick u-turn then back up the A54 and down the Cat and Fiddle and home. 100 miles all told. The last hour after Buxton was the best hardly another car in sight and once beyond the cameras the A54 is as good as it has ever been. Finished the evening up by charging through the Manchester Airport tunnels with a V8 sunbeam.
