    What to do

    Went away for a weeks holiday and left the Discovery, 2002 D2a td5 auto, outside in the airport parking for a week, got back yesterday.

    Remote worked from a distance and all the doors and tailgate unlocked as they should, cases went into the boot.

    Key turned easily in the ignition and the car started instantly, ran smoothly all the way home, quietly and with no warning lights or random chimes from the dash.

    My question, as per the title, what do people do on Sunday afternoons when there is nothing wrong with the disco?

    I fear you may both be right, but hopefully someone got a smile out of it before it happens

    Just like some youtubers(such as LR Time!) ... make coffee!... just like Toyota owners.

    Yep.. boring, I get that... but I like coffee.

    One possible solution is to get yourself another two Discos(don't matter which type) and hence reduce the odds that you don't get much time to 'make coffee'.

    Thank you for your 'supportive' comment, had me laughing out loud!

    I suspect you might be right!
