I've just turned down the offer of one.  Now you've got me thinking ;D

You did what!  :o

It was bigger than I would likely need, so if I did ever get one, I'd go for a small tabletop toy one.

A few years ago, mum was getting rid of dads old lathe, I really, really was tempted by that, due to all the add-ons, but it was enormous.  Plus, had I put it in the garage, I wouldn't have it now ;D

Have the interior of the Alabama Mumsybus a thorough clean. Was going to wash and polish the outside, but too cold to be throwing water everywhere  :D

Just got home from a weekend in Dublin, dropped the Jag off for a new AC condenser to be fitted in my local butchers... Er Garage.

Loaded the Subaru with various items for our local auction rooms, there's money to be made simply by clearing the loft out..👍
Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level & beat you with their experience.

It's very good if you know where to go and the Arlington was full of Welsh🤣 we thought we would be the only five there! It was full to the rafters and quite a big place, only fault was the result which England very well deserved, more power,  better under the ball, faster to the breakdown, and why the FK Wales kept kicking the ball was beyond belief after only 15 minutes the air was blue around our table, but it is what it is and we enjoyed a massive piss up anyway😎😂 It hurts but,well done England.

The only good thing about Dublin is the Guinness brewery (if you like Guinness) otherwise its one huge toilet.  :)

I love Guinness and I love the people👍 that's more than enough for me. Not to mention the beautiful Irish women I've frequently bumped into🟥

Poured more piss in the tank.

To me, it seems to be getting through loads, but looking back at when I last did it, she's covered some miles since ;D.  Last lot seemed to be around 400 miles per litre, though there is no way of knowing how empty it was.  I'll have to do a calculation from when we first got it for better accuracy :)

Omega engine all ready for gearbox to go on, just need a slave, woops, secondary clutch cylinder. Not trusting the one thats been sat 20 years as it will be box out to change it.

Finally got around to plumbing in the heated washer bottle on the Alabama Mumsybus and had intended to change the coolant whilst the system was open.

Not quite to plan though, as had bought the correct blue coolant, only to find that it has been changed at some point and is now the orange stuff. Fortunately I still had some from summat else, so syphoned the expansion tank and made a concerted effort not to spill too much.

All back together and run up to temp, just need to recheck it when it's cooled down a bit and fill the washer bottle.

Funny how there's always one screw under the wheel arch that doesn't want to go back where you found it ::)
