Hello, Friends!
I have been incommunicado since Monday. When Papa tried to start me after stopping off at the Co-Op my battery failed completely. It did not even have enough power to work my central locking. This surprised us both, even if Papa did initially think my starter had jammed and was shorting so started belting me with his walking stick! Then he tried my sidelights and....... nothing. So he called Green Flag.
At least the nice chap who came out was able to get me going again which saved me the shame of being brought home on the back of a wrecker. So embarrassing!! Been a while since I was on one of those, before my current Papa adopted me in fact! Papa was very careful not to stall my powerful engine because he would not have been able to start me again if he had!
The nice man from Yodel came earlier, struggling under the weight of a large box which had my new battery inside. 5 minutes for Papa to fit the thing and another few minutes for me to realise it was my key he was using! Still, all sorted now and I can chat again.
The firm who supplied my battery are based in Abergele and are called Tayna Batteries and their website is:

Try them, Papa says they are good! And they re on the Bay of Evil. That's where he got mine from for a mere £50 delivered next day.
