I'm not gonna make this one now either. I will make one of these one day.

 

Upcoming work trip means I need to do stuff at home this weekend, and possibly collect another car.

I too am also out... got a Scania requiring a new face so I have to be present in the workshop on Saturday. Also there is apparantly an open day at the bus museum on Sunday so The Gaffer has volunteered me to take a bus through.

Might be back in but it'll involve a special reappearance of minicab sinulator 2002.

I have broken my Visa tonight trying get the boot to lock, I have lost the large retaining clip. I will have another look in the morning.

 

I also have a 5.5 allan key.

Couple of choices there, in among the dozens of curry houses!  The new Thai place is apparently very good.

I'll do a proper update tomorrow as I am just about to head off for the in laws, but you could have bought a Citroen Xsara Forte (1360cc) for just £50 with MOT till October
