She's a Freelander. She's supposed to be mud coloured .
We're not allowed to wash our cars here. Not that I ever do anyway.....

yes - but it was in blotches - not nice at all And only half of her was affected !
Her muck was down to the uprooted trees and the awful winds and rain etc and one particular small lake / puddle on one road I could not avoid - it was deep enough that many cars would have got stuck in
Anyway she's now all nice and clean again
She doesn't get taken to be washed all that often [ last done for the Scottish Meet ] but she really looked messy and unloved .

You can, but there's not a lot of point here. You will inevitably get stuck behind a tractor, lorry, or plain dawdling normal within short order who'll throw all sorts of muck up from the road!

Well, I've done it. Listed a few unwanted bits and pieces for sale in the classified section with a view to boosting reserves for that 70-200mm f2.8.

Not bad in the end, the sun shone this afternoon.
I managed to avoid decorating by doing an essentials shop.
We needed English beers to take to France as a present for some friends.

I can see some blue sky
Since Freda got very dirty when she was out during the week I think I'll go and get her washed so she'll dry before I have to go out again this afternoon [ when weather is not looking as good ]
Why am I washing her this am ? - well half of her, from front to back and all down her nearside is brown mud splashes instead of her nice dark sparkly blue - I'm not driving round in something that looks like that - all mud - yes , all blue - oh yesssssss. Half and half - naaaaah not on your life . Poor Freda , like this she looks uncared for
