Hot and sunny. Mike organized the ladders and plank under the car to lift the fuel tank back into position, I helped by lifting it while he replaced the bolts. He fitted the brake cables and I assisted with the adjusting, listening for the clicking to finish. I made lunch while he finished putting the car back together. After lunch we went out in the car to test it. We hadn’t gone far before we decided that the banging was still there. We drove north to Cahors, paused to drink a cold coke under the trees by the river Lot and watched a trip boat go by, then carried on towards Figeac with the intention of going to Aurillac, but the traffic along the Lot valley was heavy so we turned left into the hills on narrow roads at Lamagdeleine, up to Mels, Valroufié and Francoulès; then headed west through St Denis-Catus, Catus and St Mèdard along the valley of le Vert stream. Then up and over the hill to Luzech, where we crossed the Lot and headed southwest down the valley of the Seoule to Castelsagrat and back into Valence. Sweltering hot and very sticky - had a ventilator fan blowing into the bedroom all night.
