Back to sanity after a weekend spent in the kingdom of the damned (London).  Still, London was sunny and warm and Horton this morning is wet and windy so maybe the damned have more luck. 

Talking of luck we had a good share yesterday which is pretty unusual for me.  Heading west along the M62 aiming for Halifax to drop off my brother in law and his wife there was a quiet bang and the Nissan lost power.  "Oh tsk"we thought (or words to that effect but stronger) "the tank seems to have a problem".  A drift along the hard shoulder brought us to a slip road and a handy business park where we called the AA.  I had visions of having to fork out for a new turbo charger and broke out in a cold sweat.  Just half an hour later (honestly that quick!) we were on the move again with the tank running sweeter that a nut.  It seems that the air pipe on the turbo had shaken lose and blown off thus rendering the turbo ineffective.  Mrs F does not recommend trying to drive a few tons of 4 litre Japanese 4x4 without the assistance of a turbo.

As above it's wet and very windy this morning so though the river is in very good water, fishing on both it and the Tarn will be challenging today.  The forecast for tomorrow looks much more promising.
