Munday’s Musings

I am writing this in the midst of the third heatwave of the year, having just returned from a fun trip to the coast that I really didn’t mean to do. The opportunity to drive my cars just for the fun of it doesn’t arise very often these days and, sometimes, I find myself having to, rather than wanting to, drive the cars just to keep them running and working. I had decided that an early Elise S1 that I have owned for a few years now would benefit from a run and I coincided it with a need to visit the Post Office. Now, my local Post Office is also on the route to the beautiful Suffolk seaside town of Southwold and the roads there are generally fairly empty midweek plus, also, they could not be more perfect for a Lotus Elise. So rather than spending thirty minutes driving to the Post Office and back, I found myself taking four hours heading to Southwold, with time for a quick stroll around the town included. It was really nice to be able to reconnect with the Elise with a fun ‘recreational’ drive that I really must do more often.
