The missus looks like Vera Lynn she's dressed in 1940's gear along with a 40's hairstyle. She's off to the Lytham wartime festival weekend with her girlfriends. https://www.visitengland.com/experie...rtime-festival

Typhoon arrived earlier, I was out but my neighbour took it. I was up at Hobbycraft getting some odds and sods, primarily a small sheet of very thin wood to make the steps and wheel chocks along with some suitable coloured tapestry thread for the rope on the chocks.

Afternoon all. Bit cloudy here but, warm and dry so it's ok I guess!

Look forward to seeing the Typhoon when it's completed Steve. Sound like you're going to make a top job of it.

I'm now off to try and remove the exhaust down pipe from the MGF, it's the original from '97 so.............good luck with that!

Got three of the four off so far Freddie Been soaked in PlusGas every day since Wednesday but still very tight, squeaky tight
The last one is feeling tighter than the others as it undoes, really don't want shear the stud. Slow job but, I'll keep giving it a tiny amount of undo then tighten a little, add more PlusGas and go a little more.
Patience is a virtue, you know
