In just 9 days time I can get the mini out of the garage, and drive it for the first time in 57days...I've been counting.

    Hi, I'm in Didcot. I believe the Abingdon Mini club is still running but I'm not a member myself. Worth a Google. As for garages there are a few about again I think there is a list on here somewhere.

    School work sucks but do the best you can as later on in life you will find it a struggle. Been there done that.

how can I add an extra interior light to work along side the original, but having already run out of feeds at the starter solenoid and fuse box?

    yeah, that's right, not sure why that line fuse is 10amps as I can't imagine the interior light and indicator warning light ever getting close to 10A, but then some of the fuse ratings in the mini don't make any sense to me so meh, :D

    I don't get the fuse ratings on minis used over the years. After having a look at the mini and not the Haynes book of lies. Because mine is the earlier ones to inline fuses, the interior light and hazards shared fuse is actually 15amps, not 10amps like the later ones. Still the extra interior light is all wired up and working now.

Just moved a flower pot that was upside down in the garden and there's a ball of about 6 frogs underneath it. All seem to be asleep. How funny. Left them alone.

    I like frogs. I have the tiniest little pebble pool solar ornament in the garden - only about the size of a dinner plate, and I had a frog just sat in that most of the summer. Like it was in a Jacuzzi. He/she was ace.

    I wish I worked somewhere where they had an office dwarf. Is it a job? Is it a bit like Dobby the House Elf?

Gone through a traffic light on green and about 4-5 car lengths over the stop line and a corsa infront stalled so I couldn't go anywhere, does this mean I've been caught by a red light camera

    Would it have triggered the camera if you were already over the stop line on green? I don't think it would've ..

    If you crossed the printed line when it was green then you're okay, providing it wasn't a box junction.
