Blog ≫ 2026 ≫ Have driven the new car

Went to Ashford to test drive the car that we're getting, and loved it, so we're still getting it. Just went for a drive round the industrial estate and some local streets in Ashford. Generally not a pleasant experience, but in the electric car it was a treat. We drove the higher spec version of the car we're getting, still waiting for our one to come in, can't wait.

Went to Keppel's bar in Folkestone after to play pool. Such a lovely spot, though the room the pool table is in is very cold. I left them too it and sat by the fire in the main bar after one game of pool and a bit of table tennis. Now we're home with our ready meal curries for tea, then we're going to watch The Avengers after that. All round a lovely day.

I haven't quite warmed up all day, even when I was sat near the fire in the bar, but the heating is on now.

A clear sky + a gentle breeze, 5 - 12℃.
