Lunch at my sisters, lazy afternoon, left at 5.45 - Cornish lanes, come up their (long hill), down a 'straight' with a lake, S-bend, then another (deeper) lake before the junction, 300 yards up the road, on goes the red lub light, immediate pull in this time.
Phone the sis to get my mater back down to her house, then the AA. Sis arrives, takes her off, phones back to say there's a thin spray all the way back to the puddle.
AA turns up after 1hr 15 (text messages) and there's a wedding finger hole in the new sump - didn't even feel anything as the offending rock was under water, not even a bump......
Get the car up on the ramps, mother back, to the garage and then back here at 8.30, - simple Caesar salad as I didn't want more and the red wine, and that I do want more!
Pissed off. The good news is that the AA man said the engine will be okay as there was plenty of lub when he dipsticked the beast.
