In the woods today, with dog and wife, we came across one of the lengths of nylon (or whatever) blue rope that kids sling over trees to swing on. But this was different, much thicker than usual and almost brand new. I'll have that, said I. Why, said wife. It will come in handy, said I. She sighed and walked off. I followed, without the rope 
so she was quite happy for you to "have enough rope to hang yourself with"
that's not a good sign

I'm trying to reduce the amount of sh1te in my garage ... not increase it!

I was looking for something earlier and among various bits & pieces, I found an idle air control valve from my Senator and steering wheel controls from an Astra G I had years back .... to name but 2

I've got enough astra G and carlton parts to open a parts dealership

I really should find someone ,for the carlton parts at least ,astra G parts are two a penny right now ,though my mum still has a nice 52 plate 1.4 with sub 60k
ive got about 5 genuine oem cats that i hear are worth taking to "WARR" or similar recycler ,once restrictions allow
