That explains the news headline "Freak plague of moths hits UK".  :laugh:

Is that why hundreds of the little bugggers stick themselves on my night time dew covered black bonnet and roof?
Early start this morning all done now..  :whistle:




Im bloody knackered now  :cry:  :cry: looks brand new  :cool:

So good, I'll quote it again. Top job hepton.  Better than new.  Now go get an ice cold beer and lie down, and rest your DA arm....apart from raising bottle to mouth of course.  :wink:

No, can't be me, I haven't opened my wallet yet. Do the shops still take the white five pound notes? :laugh:

Anyways, I'm away on holiday right now so can't be buying any shed fillers.....

I managed to give it a good seeing to over the weekend.







Look no fogs!



This is one for the people in the know/Rebecca. What on earth is this? It looks to me like mineral deposits from standing water after a wash, but it is completely smooth to the touch and didn't budge when I tried a bit of SRP on it. I hope it's not something that I have inflicted!

Seriously, that looks perfect but in today's weather, you're properly hard core. Me, I'd be dead if I done half that in half the temperature today.

Wow!  Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!  That tailpipe.  :cool:

They don't look like normal mineral deposits to me, though that is where the water would pool  Try a bit of white vinegar on them and see if they budge.  Also try claying them. 

Great pics.
