• Robin hoods bay and Boggle hole YHA

    24 Haziran, İngiltere ⋅ 🌬 19 °C

    We left Humber bridge view hotel in cloudy weather and within half an hour Blubelle had her first break down.
    At the bottom of a hill the engine missed a beat then about half way up the engine cut out completely. I manage to coast across the road and just managed to roll into a layby.
    Using a spare spark plug I checked for a spark and the was none. It has electronic ignition so no points to check. I unscrewed the lead from the coil to the distributor and found heavy oxidation on both ends. I cleaned everything and all was good we were back on the road. Just as I was finishing a car pulled up. The driver said he saw we had a problem so he turned around to offer help. I took a photo and thanked him as he offered to follow us from a while.
    Just after that it started raining. It wasn't heavy but it was persistent. So the hood went up in the car and rain jackets on us as rain comes in the sides when it rains.
    We continued to Robin Hood's Bay intending to stop for an hour then continue but Mandy liked it so much we decided to look for somewhere nearby to stay the night and found this amazing place which was along a single track road of over 25% incline up and down. Then you must park the car and walk for ten minutes down a steep hill to the remote hostel on the tiny cove. It is beautiful.
