Have you considered Halfords spray cans

That's the new lights fitted in the boot, won't get the full effect til later.

Much to my surprise I got the 75 started after charging the booster pack for about 48 hours. Didn't have time to let it run and see what happened with the battery, alternator is certainly pumping out 14 volts but whether the battery itself will hold a charge after getting so low.....

Well despite taking Lemsips every 4 hours for the last few days and cough medicine and sore throat lozenges, I woke up this morning feeling even worse!

So just got back from the quacks and apparently what I've got is viral and could last up to 2 weeks!

So I'll be off back to bed shortly, as still feeling like poo!

Sorry to hear it Mark, I'm on the mend apart from the cough hanging on, still wakes me up a couple of times a night. More annoying than anything else.

Thanks Steve, must admit that as I've now had it on and off for a week, I'm getting fed up with it!

Sleep wise, I've taken a couple of Nytols the last couple of nights and they've helped, but you're only allowed to take them for 3 days in one week, so after tonight, I'm a bit stuffed!
