Got to the cat park and the car battery is flat. Opened a door with the key inside the fob to lift bonnet. So i want to use my engine starter and of course the battery is in the boot under the floor and the boot lid is locked. The board over the battery cannot be lifted unless the boot is open so completely useless mission. Lucky the car park crew have men who start cars and knowledge how to do it.
He connected a large battery into the fuse box under the bonnet and fired it up. The engine starter does not work that way as it puts charge into the battery so just will not work.
I intend to fit two jump leads to the battery now and have the ends inside the car above the boot board.
There were 5 Toyota hybrids with flat batteries within 15 metres of mine. The starter man says this affects every hybrid Toyota in the car park so it cannot be left 35 days.
What a crap design. Then, at home is a recall that the ECU controlling some of the skid control is faulty and needs replacing as the brakes may not work if used when cornering. Thats a few thousand of them being recalled and mine is one. Next week it gates booked in for the job
Great time again with 2 helicopter extractions and 5 taken off by ambulance.
Super ship powered by Natural gas so no engine noise of vibration. 220,000 tons and 22 knots but will go faster. No smoke and no smell.
This cabin was 6400 pounds for 35 days but the lower end cabins were 4200 and thats for 2 people. Cheaper than a UK hotel but also unlimited food and shows going on day and night. So many oldies finding it cheaper to go away for Winter than staying home in a cold house. This was IONA which is 5 year old and ultra modern and i would use it again . This year the price was nearly half the price of last years trip.
