Cant recall if it stopped when the car was locked, but from memory if kept going for hours if I left the car unlocked. I ditched the relays after that

Yes,I would expect that from our spannerman,and he would tell you how well he fixed it.Normally when he is finished telling us how good he fixed something it fails again.We say,"I thought you said you fixed that".GOLD!!!!!

We got a little bit a couple of days ago - just enough to water the lawns. There has been a bit of heavier rainfall to the north of us - up around Leonora & Menzies - but we didn't see any of that.
Has been great weather here for working outside or in the shed lately - I've been getting a bit done around the place. Just about to order some roofing iron and re-sheet the back half of the main section of the house. [bigwhistle]
