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


Thanks Derek, so far, so good!


Theres allways one nut or bolt that does not want to play ball.

Okay...

So a game of spot the difference. For a single packet of Jordan's Country Crisp cereal, spot the difference between Alison and a VW Golf Mk5.

What pray is the reason for this game?

Well I was at a petrol station having bought some supplies when a woman opened Alison's passenger door to get in and asked me "What the duck is this" gesturing towards my collection of CD's and waterproof jacket.

I then went to say "Actually, you've got the wrong car" however she realised and was quite embarrassed!

Her mate was parked up in the carpark in a Golf. Both cars and drivers look quite different in Alison's opinion...

Strange.

Good evening Derek, a group of 5 Americano women arrived to sit in front of where I am sitting at the departure gate, queer and hillbilly looking, pegged teeth, something genetically gone wrong with them or they have been passing the ugly tablets round. Bless their hearts
