I had work related stuff to do this week in Leicester and Corby and as we
like(d) driving we decided to do the trip from Stranraer down the A75 A74
M6 A66 M1 ON Sunday an uneventful and pleasant trip. Did my work related
stuff on Monday and Tuesday and headed back on Tuesday afternoon. The A66
was closed and we had to drive A616 across to the M61 which as we like(d)
driving was ok until we got to Bolton when we felt a strange stirring in Fat
Tony's (the car) loins severe drop in the revs and then a jump back to
