Showing my ignorance

I have the quick connectos also, it makes life just a little bit easier.. I put it on a reconditioning charge last night. Until I'm free of Covid which has been dogging me for over a week now, i am house bound anyway

My overnight top ups have been more like weekly and now I've put the car back together, i did wonder whether i should have just replaced the thing? Summer hasnt arrived here yet of course, so the car sits a lot, I'll see what transpires in the coming weeks.

Sorry to read you have the lurgy! It’s one I’ve managed to escape so far - no idea how - however both of our cars are showing signs of aging batteries. Carly flagged the X6 one as only 94% capacity now and it’s used almost every day. The E46 needs a charge every couple of weeks.
:ant: Never anthropomorphise computers. They hate that.

Lurgy struck me the w/e of 4/5th although the penny didn't drop until the 8th when i first tested. I had shivers and a cough but still hadn't twigged. When i first tested on the 8th the scale reading roared up double quick to a significant positive. Tested yesterday and still bloody positive, though i feel OK again now.

Like you i had avoided it during the pandemic and never thought I'd be immune, but nor did i think about catching it now either. Its a local version and i think i must have acquired it here shortly after i arrived and went grocery shopping.
