After yesterday's spin around west cork with the Austin 7,s, I decided to go for another drive this evening, again over the hill to ballylickey and home again,
I folded the windscreen down for a bit more of the wind in the hair/flies in the teeth experience and I had a nice lively drive over. Borlin, until it stopped!
The bumps had broken the electric fuel pump clamp and the pump dropped, breaking the wires, of course this will always happen where there is no phone signal, but a temporary wire from the battery to the pump got me going in about 5 minutes,
So a little job for tomorrow to fix that, but it certainly didn't spoil my drive this evening.

A very enjoyable day out today in around Bantry and Gouganebarra with some friends,
Nothing nicer than exploring little roads in some prewar cars,
In the absence of any pre 1955 or prewar runs here in Munster, it was nice to be in the company of similar vehicles and like minded people, and we certainly got plenty of attention from people as we passed by
Thanks to everyone who made it happen this weekend, hopefully we can do it again
