Plus gas...my friend
« on: 31 October 2015, 12:56:38 »

Can't believe it. After soaking the cat to centre section rusty bolts for five days...I've only unscrewed all four bolts with minimum resistance :y :y :y :y
A good thump with Sammy, then the unscrew/ screw up method, its all parted brilliantly. Only problem, its buggered my back, and swmbo is adding to the pain :(
Thanks to those who suggested Plus Gas....it will have a permanent place here in future :y
Right, what's good for back pain........... :(

Lie down on your front on a comfortable mattress and get a naked Japanese girl to walk up and down on your spine.
It may not cure your back but it will take at least a week to shift the silly grin from your face!

I got mine from Amazon...sold by ECP...£4.99. Click and collect at ECP was £4.29. Could not have fetched it from my local ECP for 70p. Oh, btw, it came next day (free p&p) by UPS, as Nick W would confirm. :y

Available in Boyes stores, about £4.99. If that's not peculiar to the North...

Not familiar with that name around here.
Anyway, to cap it off, another £78 exhaust fitted like a dream. Old one off, new one on, tried and tested. And five days to get here from Poland. Which, although having to do it myself, was a damn site cheaper than the £550 quoted by National tyres !!!!!!! :y
One on the Estate is still ok after two years. :y
Oh....and mine came from Premium-Car, not ETS, although I don't think there is much difference. :y
