Just need some biscuits.

Took my car to local garden centre for good clean, inside and out.  Just hand the keys over and go for a look round the centre or have a drink in the cafe.  Car ready after 20 minutes.
I chose the former but only bought a birthday card!  These cheeses looked tempting but still have too many left overs.  Strangely there was also a selection of garden items for sale too!
I am sure the car is lighter without the caked mud on the outside and dead leaves on the inside.
On return home booked the car in for annual service and MOT next Wednesday.  Perhaps being clean will let it sail through the MOT, but doubt is as there is an ominous rattle which needs to be investigated.
