nah, day off today and tomorrow. have a shitload to do but can't be arsed. Got GTA vice city today after buying it on ebay.
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=11050&item=8191935026
Just under £9 inc postage so might have a play of that. looks pretty good.
I'm having to supress my need for another 19 at the moment. The stable has consisted of
1992 19 ph2 1.4e (fuel injected not carb)
1991 19 Ph1 19 16v
1994 19 ph2 RT TD
I got rid of the TD in Jan 2003, so it been over two years.
I want to buy a 16v with a decent engine and sound chasis, don't care about the rest. Then a replacement clutch, gearbox, all interior removed, rollcage with chassis welds. sports suspension. Might also weld some alu sheeting in the back to make it look neater. Then will rag it round knockhill and might do the scottish hillclimb series if it's still around. It used to be sponsored by Guyson and was held at doune, fintry and about 4 others courses. |

dunno if we'll make that mate!
Alan is in the cop shop the now (why I have no idea, something dodgy like stolen jelly babies or something or an incident thing about his old 5) but we have to be at Marks to pick up the 19 around 7:30.
I was wantign to head out before 4 to get there for 5 ish so we didn't have to wait in traffic all night.
I am phoning alan back in 10 mins anyway to see whats happeneing then I'll post back up. |

just one of those marzipan things would be more than my requirement for a lifetime, even if you slipped it into my food in miniscule quantities over a period of 50 years.
Cant stand the stuff. |
