Another day another problem, fan died, car overheated, went to garage Tuesday, still not back, friday i was helping a mate out and going for a much needed night out, Saturday i was seing a lass im getting close to, and Sunday was the blackpool run.

Its a great feeling - until the wife discovers you used the hoover to pick up the bits and dust off the garage floor! (I posted about that one last week! She is speaking to me again now)
