Also got to the bottom of the dangerous handling issue..................turned out to be tyres

Working on your own car eh?, bet you didn't get up at 6.45 am to get started

Mmm, my neighbours love me even more after driving the Dreary Primertallic beast onto the ramps with no exhaust at 8 am

Aye, but that's not a cold draughty driveway though, you've got a heater and everything

Me, I had to wear a thicker tee shirt, even the Prof commented on my (fool)hardiness in such inappropriate workwear when I was frabbling about taking his EWS out.

He suggested that two tee shirts would be advisable, given the wind chill factor

Still the heating is on indoors, I'm sitting with a nice cuppa, and Chris is cooking something that smells lursh for tea

Been there, done that, used the Tee shirt to soak the oil up

Steak.......... nah Angry Burb has eaten that, and the fridge

See what happens when you have a wild creature guarding Stirling towers without feeding him properly.

Jeff has left the instructions for the care of these creatures often enough

Mmmmmm apart from them orange oval things & the black pud

Finally fitted my new lower rear engine mount polybush, not the slightest bit of vibration inside the car

the old bush was TOTALLY cream crackered.

Also fitted my new belt for the air con. Old one was in the boot broken. Left in there was than being replaced

Did an oil changed too. Don't know the age of the oil. Anyone know the way to reset the service indicator?

Now I can enjoy her for a bit. Well MOT is due on 25th

I know one front tyre is getting low but that's it I think for MOT.
