    Spotted at Goodwood just now.

    Turns out she’s not actually going to Pilates, she’s been spotted at a Bistro with a man known locally to have a huge phallus.

    Today has been busy. I did a half day this morning due to lack of supervisors. 04:00 - 09:00. Then did 800m in the swimming pool.
    At the weekend @Scrap’s Saab 9-3 (ex @CaptainBoom) managed to hoover up some water in the air intake, thankfully no damage caused and a new air filter sorted out the rough running. Old one was drenched. I also showed Scrap how to do an oil change. Couldn’t be bothered to get all the undershields off, so I popped my vac-pump cherry.


    Glorious* carpet. The Saab now sounds a lot better with clean liquid dinosaurs running around its internals, and it’s a lot easier to get to the filter than the poxy Fiat lump in mine.
    After this I cleared out the remaining old shite in the garage that is either destined for the shed or tip, assembled to table saw I won on eBay for £30, and parked the Citroën under cover.

    Still some shed stuff in the garage, but once I put some hangers and hooks in the shed I can clear the deck. Yes, the wiring is terrible, but it’s one of my next projects.
    Yes, I have installed a garage door opener. Does this make me a tosser?

    The “Isn’t an MoT a service?”.
    Normally a newer car, but sometimes something pushing 25 years or older. Invariably has missing bits of trim, a bit of dangling exhaust and a number of failed lamps/lights. Unaware that the remedial work to get their car roadworthy* for another year doesn’t  include an oil or filters change, despite this normally being quite a few hundred pounds.

    On my way back home from Canterbury and the Saab keeps losing power. Hopefully it’s just the wastegate vacuum actuator pipe again as it’s intermittent.
