He's somewhere the other side of the river in the bit that's still trying for independence. Kernow I believe they refer to it as.

Not P38 related but I had a problem with the alternator on my Chrysler people carrier the other week...
The charge light would come on with the engine running. At first I suspected a slipping belt but as the time between starting the engine and the light coming on seemed to be getting shorter and it turning out that the belt wasn't slipping, I came to suspect the brushes (an easy enough and cheap fix, just have to order the brushes from a local alternator specialist). I didn't want to wait for the alternator specialist and as I have a spare (for scrap) same model vehicle I thought I'd just swap that one's alternator in for the time being. I went as far as removing the alternator from the spare car before I realised that with the engine running I could see the alternator internals spinning slower than the alternator drive hub - It has one of those clutch/freewheel drive hubs and it turned out that was slipping. To prevent the same thing happening again I simply removed the air filter to access the front of the alternator and mig-welded the alternator drive without even removing it, so it's not the clutch type anymore! Took care to first tack the mig's earth wire to the pulley itself so as (hopefully) not to damage the regulator and kept the hub cool with water between brief welding so as not to damage the bearings. Better than new in my opinion, less to go wrong and can't tell any difference for lack of the clutch.

I'm in Kernow at the moment, not seen much to hint at the call for independence yet but I expect to see the black Kernow flag and something about independence still painted on a bridge over the Northbound A30 on my way home, been there since about 1989.

That was the problem with the Scottish indyref, we were thinking too small. We should have redrawn the border around the outside of the M25 first... ;-) And maybe put the Houses of Parliament somewhere nice and central, like Hexham.

You can have the Houses of Parliament, the outer Hebrides seems a good place for it..

I'm in St Austell, I have sorted the srs light using autodiagnos at my old work place ( they owed me a favour)

I'm back home now. Passed through St Austell loads of times while in Cornwall... with the SRS light glowing in my ML all the while!
The last time I passed through St Austell was enroute to Mevagissey from Padstow. Went to Padstow from Newquay but couldn't find a parking slot around Padstow due mostly to all those kids that were around for Boardmasters...

Definitely on my patches there & Meva is one of my favourite places if you can stand the crowds in the summer. Padstow is again always heaving ( like St Ives) & parking normally has to be the top field up be Tesco. Board masters is always fun around Newquay & I had a contract there this time taking 18 Vip guests in & out so had no choice but to go, still i was getting paid ;-)

I know my way around Cornwall pretty well really, been most years. I did get into Padstow this year before Boardmasters, St Ives too although got caught out by the sunny weather instantly changing to torrential rain... caught the bus back up the hill to the car park (lol) and went on to LandsEnd. Been thinking about taking the boat to Gorran Haven. Bought my first GrandVoyager from a guy near Padstow, brought it back on a trailer pulled by my 4L GrandCherokee with homemade baked beans can mixer.
