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

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?
