Swapped the battered gold wing for a straight gold one and now it looks slightly better...

Filled the Battlebus up with Tesco's finest, with 10ppl off, then popped in to see how that reprobate Terbs was settling into his new home in Brakkers.

Karcher K4 with correct car bit, whole bonnet suffers a bit, even more so at the front.

It’s been going for a long time, just the bonnet that has it.

Replaced the leaking rear caliper on my sister's Hyundai: 35minutes including putting the tools away. It makes all the difference being able to adjust the handbrake cable with a spanner inside the car through the centre console.
