Sounds like working on the aircraft system there.
Have too say working on aircraft does intrigue me.

Not sure what I'll be doing the next, well tonight its drink some more, weekend nothing planned yet but I'll find something too do.

Sounds like a cracking start too the bank holiday mate.
If the weather holds up a BBQ could be on the cards for us as well.

Just welsh weather has the tendency too change with a click of a finger.

Default i NEED A DRINK AFTER THIS.

Sorting everything out today sorting bits too keep and things too scrap.

I knew I had plenty of bits I couldn't believe how much I've got altogether in terms of mechanical parts, electrical sensors, interior and exterior trim.

Too be honest I'm glad I've over stocked as getting bits for these becoming pricey and rare, on the probe clubs I'm on everyone is fighting for parts, I do get a lot of heat due too my collection of bits, I've had few members asking too buy stuff and I always reply sorry mate need too keep them.

Let's just say I've quite a few rude response which I won't take.

A lot of the bits freebies after owners move on and I've been lucky too see the thread and arrange collection straight away.

I'll never need any more parts again for a very long time.

Bit annoyed tho, one engine I've got off low milage probe I had its full of water. the shed roof started too break apart a bit and water has been dripping on it for some time, even tho I put water cover over it, the rats have been having a nibble at it.

I don't think I can use it anymore now.
Unless I Rebuild it and hand crank the engine while putting oil in and let it pump around the engine, I think its too late now.

DAMN DAMN DAMN DAMN DAMN with lots of swearing.

Wow mate Doris the Devon certainly looks the part.
Very nice example, saw on of these at the Rimmer Brothers meet a few years back, but it nowhere near as the condition as yours.

Give yourself a pat on the back you deserve it and a cold one on the house.
