Today's little mission was to change the HBV(because some clumsy bastard broke the vacuum fitting off it), and replace the broken cambelt cover and cable tray. I've had the new cover for over a year, and found it recently when clearing out the cellar
HBV went well, as I'd fitted jubilee clips when I changed it last year.
Belt cover came out in 3 pieces, as it was in worse condition than I'd thought. But it turns out that the replacement won't fit as it's a different shape in the lower LH corner. Cue lots of swearing.
So I'm cycling to work tomorrow. And it looks like I'll be fitting the replacement in the dark when it arrives in the week.
