Nothing much past couple of days bar pick up a brake pedal switch form south queensferry and today drove to manxcat to get 8 spoke wheels chrome which needs repaired so that's it .

Sitting warm indoors hating the bloody rain stopping me finishing putting winch plate on landy and cursing having a big garage but full and other project in but at a stand still as parts havnt arrived yet so I'm bored !!!!
And no this isn't the perfect time to tidy up I'm too peed off 

Looked at it while putting a new blade on the log-saw.

 MOTs up on the 21st so I better sort a couple of niggles tomorrow - washer pipe is blocked, wiring to one rear light is playing up and one rear shocker needs the bottom bushes renewed, so I'll do both sides.

( Dunno what brand of bush the PO used but they were rubbish. I doubt its done 3k miles since the shockers were replaced. )

I got a few bushes from britpart not needed as new shocks have come with bushes fitted so if you need a couple give me a pm of address and will post up what you need bar that did go out to garage and did some more welding till rain stopped then back to fitting winch plate and winch but took trip to baq for two long bolts and have the winch fitted bar wiring and secondary to fit getting there :-)

Thanks for the offer John, I've got new bushes already tho.

Cheers.

well near finnshed welding up outrigger at the bulk head and cut new parts for top hinge plate to be welded in and have obtained some more parts all waiting to be fitted or replaced on the s2a which is getting there bit by bit

  I have 4 wheel drive lol yes anyways joined you guys just outside forth on the green road run my first ever event driving and really enjoyed the experience of it a good group of about 20 vehicles turned up and the groups of 3 - 4 at a time was good ,  now home and jet washed her down and have have the mud track in road but I did jet wash it to gutter but had the busy body neighbour stick his ugly head to say why didn't I wash it somewhere else ie move the 3 cars I had in drive out of the way ? Rather than right outside house where water and electricity easy to get to mmmmm yep I go move the cars NOT . Anyways need to order up a new drivers mirror arm as mine broke of its mount but have to see fellow S2c manxcat for hinge so sorted anyways away to get myself washed up now laters folks . 

     Got my fixed P38 absolutely mocquet on the GRR and have a huge grin as I didn't need to wash ... the local car wash done it for 4 quid so well chuffed !!     Happy as a pig in s*&% ( soft muck )       Duncan

  John it wasn't a machine it was at Soapy Bubbles at the Stane in Shotts and it is a handwash well a powerjet , soap a brush then another powerjet and I was expecting to pay at least 6-8 quid just due to the overall mud flecks . they actually cleaned it quite well..  Maybe I should ask for a discount for the club !!       Duncan
