Woke up to about 3 inches of snow.
Just glad James completed all the tasks on Peachy yesterday.

Its fairly coming down here......... And I am half way thro replacing the flexi section on my exhaust. :'( :'( :'(
I wanted to trim down the new section, but it was 10:30pm, and the neighbours don't like angle grinders at that time, and there was a band playing over at the local, so I thought I'd go for a pint and leave it until today. Ce la Vie. ;D

Same tractor isn't running - with all the extra torque from the chip, no traction control, its brilliant fun in this weather ::)
-
that tractor looks strangely familiar ::)
-
Yep - I recall a day under such a car... :y
Nice to see it's being sorted - I really like the car, and recall it was good to drive :y
-
Its fun in most snow situations, but its also embarassing sometimes. Like when your sitting at a level crossing, the barriers go up and everything f/w/d in front pulls away easily and your left sitting there spinning the wheels, snow mode on or off, hardly any throttle, nothing makes a difference.

It was a good drive. Mrs TB and I loved that car (once it was sorted), and gave us 18 months good service. Sorry to see it go, but know it went to a good home :)

Yes, when I had to take it to Reading this time last year in appalling weather conditions, I put a (TD) engine block in the boot. That helped ;D

Was raining early on around 6am, now the sun is out and I may even get my shorts on :D :D

Its bl@@dy lovely to drive, when its going ::). Cant wait to get the head back on, if it isn't u/s that is, not too sure at the moment.
Problem will be, it still needs an MOT (£35), Tax (£104) and a front screen (£65 excess) so even when the heads done it will still be a few weeks before its on the road.
Can't be long though, I cant handle having to drive the wifes Audi, which I may have mentioned before is slower than a glacier (got beat off the lights by a 40 footer the other day)

I have found 6, 15kg sacks of dog food keeps me from going sideways along the road or sliding back down the hills :o :o :o :o But the dogs are getting hungry so my ballast is about to drop ;D ;D ;D
