Car Service Collected my car after a major service and cambelts /water pump replaced - cost £600. Worst thing is, it's a Skoda
I've had a few conference calls today. First one this morning was to Australia. Just before lunch was to Turkey. And this afternoon to the US. I've also been to the docs for a B12 injection. This evening I have cooked pasta and watched shit TV. I'm now watching "Vera" which I recorded yesterday evening.
Kero bath for these: Cleaned this: So the engine is made up of an early bottom end, ie barrels and pistons and early heads, should work okay. Yorkie
Thanks Pete. I can only do this if I reveal my real identity (FFS, I am not Batman, and it is for a good cause!!!!). I raise £'s for a charity called Walk The Walk, which gives cash to help fund research and treatment of breast cancer. We actually walk, not run. I still came 39,000th out of 56,000 on Sunday!!!!!! Completed the course in 3hrs 17mins. When we (predominantly women plus a few blokes) take part in WTW events, we all wear decorated bras!!! So far this year I have completed : Half Marathons : Silverstone, London Sunwalk, Dublin Rock n Roll Half, Great North Run Full Marathons : Moonwalks (overnight) in each of London, Edinburgh and Iceland over a five week period. Known as the Three Land Challenge 3LC). I still have the Cardiff Half and the Fright Hike (a 30k walk overnight in Epping Forest) to complete this year. The latter is training for the London to Brighton 100k I am doing next May. I am also doing the London Moonwalk and London Marathon (ballot permitting) next May as training walks for L2B.

Spent a day at work without painkillers. This is good. Also flogged the fucking Ducati. As it turns out this is also good. After months of worrying about a lack of work, suddenly I need to find two extra air con engineers, one pro, one trainee. If you know of anyone, let me know...
Was supposed to be on holiday today -made it to 4 before my boss called But son and daughter in law to be turned up at work with a Chinese and my belated birthday cake So that was cool
Happy Bday Char. Me.. i spent the evening pointing some if the brickwork on the front if our hse. Bought it 2yrs ago,its 45yrs old and we live close to the mountains. Then 1hr on the blackberry answering emails for wk. All good.
Happy birthday Char! Today has been a bit mixed, early start despite being on leave (5.30 aargh), spent some time clearing the loft of crap to take to the dump, and then the funeral of an old work mate. He was 91, a very quiet, deeply religious, but not a force it down your throat type, he'd been married for 70 years, served during WW2 as a Lancaster pilot earning the DFC over Peenemunde, although he despised war and what it did to the world. He was a great friend of my late father who, until the day before his passing had been in pretty good health for his age. Listening to his daughter talk of their life and the love the family have for each other has left me feeling a bit low. RIP Derek
Got my Jura coffee machine back - it had broken so I called their customer services team - wow fantastic service , they sent me an empty box via courier , I packed it up and they collected , mended it and sent it back - again next day courier - no charge for anything as under 25 month guarantee Makes a change in this day and age - no quibbles or anything
Of course - bloody expensive and surprised it went wrong but can't fault the service - think I didn't de scale in time rubbish hard water even with a filter
