Chucking it down. And cold.
In the morning we are off to Albi and I need some timber so needed to collapse the wide half? of the back seat. I got in the back, sat on the narrow half, you know what I mean, and tumbled the back seat to make a wide flat bed. Because it was torrential I had closed the rear door not realising the childproof locks were on so could not get out. I sat for for ages until Noelle from across the road came out and she released me.
What a silly old fart I am.

Haha. Sorry Anglais but that did make me laugh. Could you not climb into the front?

Haha. Sorry Anglais but that did make me laugh. Could you not climb into the front? Its okay Su. I am glad to have brightened your day. I tried to clamber into the front but the Megane has a tall centre console / bin thingy and I would also have needed to take off the handbrake and the road outside our house is a tad on the steep side. I tried to slide one front seat back and the other forward but couldn't reach the levers. I need to check the handbook to see how to switch the locks off. We also have cruise control and speed limiter switches but I dont have a clue how they work either. And when I have to change the time on the clock its a nightmare. We have only had the car for 9 years. My excuse is it's Chrissies car not mine.

That has given me a right good chuckle 😁
Weather here started cool but dry, and I managed to get the whole* of the slummer house repainted before the rain came. Even then it was only light so I got one of the hinges off, along with the door handle and cabin hook to paint them. I've now replaced those and removed the other two hinges but they're not dry yet and it's belting down now, so they can wait.
*"Whole" in this case meaning three sides. I've never painted the side that's against the hedge as I can't see it. It's well protected by old orangey shed stain so I'm not worried about it.

The weather here has been cold and damp.
