Shot!

It was dark when I got home last night. And I parked facing forward to approached GPMINI from the back this morning. So I only noticed this at lunchtime today … While we were in Florida, someone decided it would be hilarious to B.B. GPMINI – there’s still a B.B. trapped in the headlight surround, proving it’s not stone chips! At least 3 or 4 hits on the hood, and two big smacks on the windshield … GPMINI will be visiting Sublime Restorations now, for a new windshield and probably a repainted hood 😦

I suppose I should be glad that GPMINI is still mine, and not stolen and torched as happened to someone else recently!

I drove home in GBMINI#5 last night … on route 22 in Essex grip was very poor, due to ice under the snow; but back in Gloucester I had no problems driving up quite steep slopes to get home, including passing a stranded pick-up truck. Apparently GBMINI#5s all-season tires are good enough 🙂
Meanwhile, GPMINI stayed at work, part buried in the snow!

And spare a thought for Josh who left the office about 3pm yesterday – and didn’t get home till 10pm! A 1 hour drive turned in to 6 hours (plus stops!) …
