Sunday 10th October

Rather casually leapt into car ready to leave straight away this morning, when, oops! It didn't start. Luckily Toby was just revving his engine ready to go so he was quickly called into action. The solenoid appeared to be damaged so he hot wired it and showed Suzy how to do it. Off we set on our free drive to Silivri. No controls today. We were cruising along the motorway when we ran out of fuel in the main tank so Rachel had to hop out to switch the tanks over. However the car didn't start again after. Suzy's moment had come. She hot-wired it there on the motorway and off we zoomed. At the hotel we rather alarmed porter with our exclamations over our sea view so he thought there was something wrong. Had terrace lunch but no wine because we were to meet Ian and Andy for a bit of work on the car. Craig very kindly gave us his spare solenoid and we did a few other odd jobs tightening, greasing, etc. Then it was time to go to Ahmet and Erdol's drinks in the hotel.
