and it was a metallic red Tomahawk I learned to ride on. I had a boxer, with my sister having a Budgie. But the Tomahawk belonged to a neighbour friend, who was determined to teach me lol.

Spent far too long on changing the oil on my Daughter's Citroen Despatch Horsebox.

What should have been a straightforward job took ages thanks to Mr whoever did it last time round overtightening the fuel filter housing, and mistaking the torque value on the sump plug for that on one of the driveshafts.

On top of that some of the undertray fixings were seized, two were missing and one seized half undone - I assume they just pivoted the tray around that one.

When she bought it I thought it was a bonus that it came with a complete Citroen main dealer service history. How wrong I was - what a bunch of cowboys.

All sorted now with new fixings, and everything torqued up as it should be.

Looking on the bright side it will be a doddle next time round.

Code? As I read Bolin's post, he seems to be saying you just need 2 pieces of string! Now that's my kind of fix!

Been busy unblocking drains. Not sunroof drains but shower and bathroom sink. I never realised I was so gunky!

Wait for it .......................

I thought I would upgrade the pathetic horn on the Daytona.

Can you even hear that?

So, I got myself a Denali Soundbomb.

A more substantial unit than the OEM one.

That's better
