some hot water from your kettle would have done the job, but it would have meant no coffee.

I'm up for that!, now where can I find a suitable bowser from? HMM !.
The last time I attempted a run of that distance was in my trusty steed UYA 631M, a poorly appointed T.C. Jubilee, in Citron Zit Yellow, which if memory serves me right, cost just over the Ã‚Â£100 quid mark, Graeme "Scurrah of the 'Boro" fared marginally better at Ã‚Â£90 in Justin Whatsisfaces old T.C. OVT 957M, and best of all was Russ"Timberwolf" Beckett at Ã‚Â£60 in NELL powered by Ginsters pasties, Mars bars, & Vimto !!

Now for the date of this excursion - Mid 1990, Four Star @ 38 pence per litre, I'm sorry to sound harsh but a todays fuel prices, it'd be cheaper to fly by chartered jet, than drive a T.C. on a 900 mile round trip!!.
Who fancies towing the I.O.W. upto Whitley Bay?
Offers

I guess this was the Jubilee you mention

I understand that Richard Young still has it!
Not so much of the Zit description please! That is worse than calling it a lemon :roll: It is a colour that makes the car stand out from the crowd, if you are going to vomit, just make sure it is not on my paint work after it has been all done!!
