Just advertised the TR FOR SALE.....

Lovely day for a drive......but they've salted the roads already..

Now that the snow's gone and the salt washed away, took the 250 out for a 40mile run....I would like to say 'blast', but with all the traffic about, I had difficulty getting out of third gear...and this is in 'rural' Norfolk..... eventually managed to find a quick bit to clear the tubes though......

Spent the afternoon replacing a broken spring......... on the sofa........

Spent a great day climbing over the F-15 at RAF Lakenheath....and with petrol at 76p/litre....where do I sign?

Trying to get the front stub axles out....... they have obviously been in for 40 years and will not budge.

Tackling the Stelvio Pass (and others) again tomorrow....hoping for better luck than last year....

Wait a minute..... It's stopped hailing..... Guys are swimming....Guys are sailing.....Playig baseball.....Gee that's better......

Testing my rebuilt gearbox and overdrive with a quick sprint down to the Italian Lakes..... It's pi***ng down....but the box works well

It works!! all seven gears..... :}

O/D + Box all installed and ready for testing......

Just got the old gearbox out of the car....i'm sure it would be quicker to lift the body off than undo all those bolts holding seats, tunnel, etc ! not to mention bashing my head on the numerous protruberences...... hope the new O/D+box goes in a bit easier.

Just finished rebuilding gearbox and overdrive....it will be easier next time! Now rigging a 2HP electric motor for the testing.

Hi Les,

I note that you too have a hawk on your profile pic....... another hobby?

Swamped with work but down with the soldering iron and starting reassembly of gearbox and overdrive......

This is awesome. Press play them immediately press pause and let it load for a while as it's High Definition. http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=18150336

Evian water 9 oz £1.49..£21.19 per gallon! £21.19 for WATER and the buyers don't even know the source (Evian spelled backwards is Naive.)

I've laid it on the line to you time and time again..... right that's it.....im giving you a damn good thrashing.....So i did....... it was great....3degrees with the top down.

Recovering from a loud band and too much beer..... i recognised a couple of the tunes so not too bad.....must get out more.....

I've got a bench full of cogs..... where do they all belong I'm wondering??

those bleeping flashers are back......

"You know, somebody actually complimented me on my driving today. They left a little note on the windscreen. It said, 'Parking Fine.'

You're never too old to learn something stupid

If I agreed with you, we'd both be wrong....

Thought for the day.....I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you
