I think we are all having problems. I have leaks, had to rip up all of sound proof up, made fresh painted floors little rusty due to the leak, pulled paint off while pulling up sound stuff and I have scratch on wing and don't know how it got there!

Grrr! 10 minutes after sorting my insurance out I get a new quote from my existing insurer for about £60 less. Saying that though if I were to go back to them I'd loose £29 due to cancelling a policy in the cooling off period and my excess with my old insurer is about £250 more.

Good weather tomorrow so definitely a mini day, either working on or driving

Yeah definitely but I find walking locally is more interesting than a treadmill and completely free.

Cut out/down the stodgy carbs is a good one (bread, pasta, potatoes,) and eat lots of Turkey, fish and coloured veg. Cous Cous is a good one to fill you up too if you don't mind people calling you names :P

One of our dogs barks when you sneeze. Sneeze twice, she'll bark twice. :/ It's beyond me!

We charge time so I have to sit here to make sure we get to the total billable hours. The joys of being in the business of charging time.

I seam to be coming across this more and more often. I find someone breaking a car on ebay that has the parts I want. I contact them only for them to reply that they don't want the parts removed or they will not be able to move the car. A pallet with 4 caster wheels so you can put the bare shell on is not that complicated.
