Went out last night for beer and a chat
And the morning after was taken care of courtesy of Mrs MB Then an IPK was virginised and coded to Andy's ZT, followed up after the farewells had been said, a little task which took about an hour an a half to complete........ I have to say, that suspension arm was fairly comprehensively clapped Brian |

it was being used as recently as yesterday, when the car developed a strange squeaking noise that turned out to be the sidewall of the tyre just touching the inner wheelarch cable duct cover fixings, under cornering conditions.
To be fair, the arm didn't look anywhere near as bad as that, until I knocked an undersized socket onto the outboard fixing bolt, whereupon the "Emperor's new clothes" were revealed Splendid stuff, especially as this car was MOT'd 59 day ago Brian |

Did a 325 mile round trip to Wales to deliver some xmas goodies to my dear ole Mum who is recovering from a broken pelvis, fractured ribs and large bump on head after falling down the stairs. Car went like a dream and on refuelling back to the brim at home had managed 42mpg even with some spritely driving. Well chuffed but now needs a good wash and polish again; the fun never ends.
