Advice please. My car is a 2015 Hyundai i30. It's a very good car, I really like it. I know some of you have far more interest in cars than me.

The question is this. The headlights have always been poor, not very bright. I'm finding it harder to drive at night. If I replace the bulbs with something more modern LEDs perhaps? Will this give me better and brighter lighting or is it more complicated than this?

Worth a search online. Is there a forum for owners of that make and/or model. I have a Renault Capture which had very poor headlights, changed the bulbs to Philips, as advised on owner forum, much improved. I would be cautious of switching to LEDs, I think there may be an MOT issue, with after market LED headlights.

I see the New York Marathon is on Eurosport at 1.30. I might watch it.

It would be on our short list if we were to go electric.

That and the small Volvo.

Nice small portion roast beef at the Railway Inn and the Exeter Ales 'Ferryman' was absolutely superb.
Walked into Watchet, got the train to Williton, had lunch and walked back home.

Safely home from the peak district. Finally,I've found somewhere Mrs D will be happy to move to when she joins me in retirement.

You’ll be bored stiff there, nothing to do

Okay to visit for a walk although parking always seems to be difficult unless you are up at silly'o'clock.

Don't see it as a great place to live though.
