To update the last posting, we left Stonesfield, north of Oxford, on Saturday afternoon and spent the night in Putney with friends. On Sunday morning we joined the event and got to Brighton at 14.00. We left at 16.00 and arrived home at 21.00.
The round trip was 290 miles and the engine ran faultlessly. The last part Brighton to Stonesfield was through Pulborough, Petersfield, Basingstoke, Aldermarston, Tadley, Streatley, Oxford and home along some really nice roads, the late spring evening sunshine and the early blossom and brilliant green of the first blush on the trees made it a picture, 123 miles in 5 hours less a fuel and comfort stop and one to help a chummy in distress.

Thanks to all concerned on the fix and those on the journey.

Result!!!

Excellent news Jack, by the time I was ready to reply, half the forum had diagnosed the fault and posted replies, which just goes to show how much knowledge is available through the Friends web site!
