I told the butcher I'd give him £10 if he got the meat down off the top shelf. He said he couldn't.....the steaks were too high. :roll:

Spent today 1,5 hour to find the regulator on a 1937 MG and found out it had an alternator......

I just need to rewire the car, and fit that 65 amp alternator I have kicking around :D

When I phoned a local Evinrude (outboard motor) specialist and said I need a clutch dog and forward gear sprocket for a 1979 40hp gearbox he laughed and said that mine must be the only one still in use.

So today I was all ready for a day of fettling, tools sorted last night ready to get outside and crack on with the steering rack change.
I wake up, my knees, ankles, shoulders and neck are absolutely killing me

Before you insult a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, when you insult him, you'll be a mile away, and have his shoes. :twisted:

I've been thinking about fish a lot this evening. I'm not really sure why. Big swimming type fish, not the battered and deep fried variety.

Just been offered as much space as we need (within reason of course) in an old stables complex which includes power, welding kit, and a 2 post lift, all available for use. And all for the same price per month as our 20 foot storage container.

When's moving day? :lol: :lol: :lol:

BOB the boats maiden voyage lasted about 15 minutes before the gearbox problem reavealed itself, oh that was after a pitstop to refit the steering cables so it steered the way you pointed it!
