I cleverly reset both mine last time I filled up.

I'll get used to them around the time the car goes for scrap.

I do have the odourometer and made a note of the mileage last month - somewhere :roll:
Don't have the car though.

So for the Micra, I have selected from a catalogue number 67753 a commemorative envelope of the 700th Anniversary of Caerphilly Castle in 1971.

No photo - lost the little notebook camera, phone is hopeless and too idle to dig the SLR out.

+ none by any other motorised method and very few on foot. Probably 50~60 miles.

Backwards and forwards to the farm with the dustbins four times - about a mile.

I take it that is a very early entry for October Peter, or you have had a very inactive September! :-D

Not bad, Jim, and I wonder if you will be doing as many miles as this guy when you are as old as he is?

He is just awesome 8-)

I'd like to think I'm still cycling (and running) at that age but my mileages will always be limited by having other things to do in my life that consumes time that could otherwise be devoted to cycling and running...

I have a few friends that are constantly running and/or cycling but that's their entire life and have SWMBOs to look after their domestic affairs :) Lucky them!

And besides, little AX project cars don't restore themselves ;) :lol:

Re: How many miles in the month?

Month end coming up for those of us who use this thread as a public convenience to call in at each month to deposit our monthly milages. I like the number noticing randomness of the mileometer ticking over to a unique set of numbers which are the product of a series of random journeys in the month.

There is the occasional temptation to "engineer" a particular number with the odd pointless nudge like if today your milometer reads 44,441 the engineering of a pointless 3 mile journey today may prove irresistable. :-D

Anyway join in if you can with what your mileometers on your fleet have ticked over to at close of play today :-D

All I know is I've run and cycled far more than I've driven this month ;)
