The beetle has run out of road tax so it had to be moved. It hasn’t moved for quite some time now. Saturday I tried to start the beast only to find the battery was flat. Stuck the battery on charge overnight. Sunday I try again and realise that the battery is truly dead. Nowhere is open to buy a new battery so I had to get the battery from my broken clio. That was flat too. So stuck that on charge overnight. Monday evening after work and I HAVE to get the think moved. I was worried that even with a now fully charged fully working battery there were so many more things that could go wrong and whatever it was I was gonna have to fix it in the dark. Even putting the battery in was a challenge in the dark. But once that battery was in and the keys in the ignition two turns was all it took to bring the car roaring to life. A quick limp to the garage to pump air into the tyres and I was off the drop it round a friends warehouse until I have time to get it MOTed and taxed.
I made a complete and utter mess of our kitchen but I cooked for everyone in the flat. We had Breton Galettes as pictured above with ham, cheese, mushrooms and egg. Everyone was suitably impressed. Followed a little while later by the classic lemon & sugar sweet crepes. I was very tempted by beurresucre but I’ve eaten far to much butter lately so I resisted.
