I think I must have crapped myself or something! I've not been out of bed before 12 in about a week and seeing that I didn't go to bed till 0230 this morning I'm fecking amazed to be awake now!

So Who's about and what are you doing?

Back out?????????

Are ye mad man? What time do you get up in the morning?

I take it the weather is as shite there as it is here. I'm not looking forward to playing with the brakes and the front hub in the rain but there quite easy jobs so I should be able to finish quickly, hub don't turn up till 12 mind.

get up about 7 ish, get dropped here around 7:40 ish, then get to work!

Its not bad at the moment, its overscast and its drying up now. It looks like its gonna rain again though. It was brief showers yesterday which only lasted a few minutes and was light drizzle really.

I want to get the handbrake sorted so its out the way and I can take it off the axle stands.

I wish I had a lift!

It was patchy here yesterday aswell, every time I got the motivation to go and do the brakes it started to rain. So I left it till 10pm as you do.

I've got a lift at work, I hardly ever get the chance to use it but there damn handy! What I need to get is an engine crane, those things pay for themselves after the first box or clutch.

mine is blowing at the cat too. I can't be arsed with undoing it as the bolts will no doubt break or just not come off. I'ii just get the garage to fit the De-cat pipe when I get one.

It's coming along well Chris, the kink don't seem too bad and TBH I'd have never noticed if you hadnt have pointed it out.

Was it a registered rite off when it had the prang or is it unrecorded?
