Yeah... I'm getting it out of the way now before the holiday! Very Happy

Proper man-flu mind... the near-fatal one.

I think I have the BLAHCANT-BE-ARSED6 strain

There was a study into why men suffer worse with colds than women. And the results that this woman found were that we were lazy no good for nothing bar stewards.

Dunno... You take the risk that you'll break down 5 miles from home then (depending on how you do it)

I'm not saying anything. After last year I just hope we all make it there and back again. Couldn't go through that again!

Took it out for a test drive last night... went well!

Few funny noises and stuff... probably things settling down (and the wheel rubs the bumper which isn't fitted proper).

More bloomin' coolant leaking! From the one pipe I didn't tighten with the force of King Kong!

Sorting that later... why oh why is it the one under the alternator Confused

Well now I'm totally miffed.

Put a hose clamp on the other day... nice and tight (don't want it leaking there!)

Today... it's GONE Shocked Where the hell can it go? Even if it broke under some pressure (and I don't see how) then surely it would still dangle there??? That really must be his ghost eh?

Never known anything like that...

Bob

Weird Bob?

I've had a totally shit day........ordered some HT leads and went to collect them..........wrong!

Went to get the exhaust done and the back box they sent was for a 8v........wrong! The guy tried to tell me that he could weld it on and the difference in performance would be negligable. Probably true but I aint 'avin' it Evil or Very Mad

Now ordered one off the net to fit myself..........let's hope it's the correct one. Time is of the essence Rolling Eyes

Those stories sound familiar...

The worst thing in the world is the Halfords catalogues (the ones on the shelves)... if there's on part in them that's for the correct car, I'll drink my beer.
