I took the girls to the Oxford Museum where the author, Philip Pullman was opening an exhibition about Literary Oxford.
The event was organised by the StoryMuseum and took place at the Oxford Museum. Philip Pullman signed and dedicated 3 of the books from our library - The Amber Spyglass, Northern Lights, and The Tin Princess.

Not so expensive as I thought.
It wasn’t the gearbox but the ‘controller’ - some electronic device that determines when the gears will change on an automatic car. This still cost a lot to replace but took a long time to track down.
During my discussions with the mechanics, I was reminded of the process for finding a bug in software. Still, at least we made it home, unlike the VW that you see in this photo!

During a rebuild of the kitchen, I let go a piece of the demolished kitchen counter.
The result is a very sore toe. I still am continuing with the rebuild because we are without running water in the kitchen. More work to be done, but limping badly!
