<p style="font-size:16px">I enjoy driving the Porsche more than any sports car I've ever owned however the in car media system (or infotainment as the car pundits call it) was hopeless. It did have a 6 CD changer but who uses CDs any more. I carry all of my music on my phone.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>I decided to replace the 14 year old system with something newer and better. The Kenwood has Android Auto so I can run everything from my smartphone - music, phone calls, sat nav and messages.</p>

<p>It blends into the car as if it was the original system.</p>

<p>The Bank Holiday was the annual Steam Punk event in Lincoln. Helene was staying with me so we went along when it was just starting on Friday afternoon. There weren't the usual, jam packed crowds but it have us space to breath and reduced the risk of Covid transmission.</p>

<p style="font-size:16px">The revamped garden bench has been placed, with Helene's help in the corner of the veg plot. I cannot recall ever sitting on it because there's always something to be done in the garden but who knows, I might make the time to sit and admire the veg plot from time to time.</p>

<p style="font-size:16px">I have a reputation for always having curry on Friday night and it's usually a ready meal from Tesco. Last Friday was a real treat because we went to the <a href="https://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Restaurant_Review-g1096411-d2667995-Reviews-The_Gate_of_India-Market_Rasen_Lincolnshire_England.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Gate of India</a> with the neighbours.</p>

<p>I confess to eating and drinking far too much. It will take me at least a week to lose the weight I put on from this one meal.</p>
