Misfit

I was 18 and at that time had the use of a A30 Van, I parked it in The Main Street in Paignton. I parked on yellow lines and popped into a shop, it had just had a MOT and I wanted breakfast before going to work. When I came out I didn’t see the van just a large crowd at the bottom of the street with a policeman standing in the middle, I knew it was a policeman as his helmet stuck well above the the crowd.

Then on to Newton Abbot and home, car went well cold but dry.

The beauty of the TR breakdown cover obtained alongside the TRR classic, it include Breakdown cover while in Europe for £45 not just UK.

I was with RAC, had been with them 30years +. I included at home covered for the whole family, any car although limited to so many call out in any year. They covered any vehicles we were in up to 3.5 ton except my long wheel base van. Green Flag covered the long wheel base Citroen Relay. I paid in total close on £400.

So now people will say, Paul Hogan and David Soloman parked here in Davids TR4a the one seen at Silverstone on the drivers Parade lap. They’ll be impressive. I did note the Pot holes and crakes in road, it seems there are parts of Europe that have roads that suffer as much as ours here.

Scenery looks great Paul, love Italy countryside, car looking good too, what a good idea.

Star Cross with the tide out, looks like boats are sitting on grass.

Charlie D Like Made me smile, on google maps, I could work out the whole trip along the roads right through France to Pau, even pick a restaurant by looking at a menu on a wall. No longer, and that progress.
