All in good time dear boy! brake servo next, then starter motor, once all the bits on top are done then i will get it jacked up and start the mucky bits underneath. You have to remember, i now have 2 small children, and a full time job. Oh, and dont forget the wife!

I sold a 1275 head recently for £28, I think £150 is a little ambitious. Im coming up too bath in the next couple of weeks, If I bring my cone compressor can I get 2 doughnuts off you?

£28 flippin heck, thought I would get more than that. Like I said I am open to offers, but for £28 I would rather keep it as a spare.

The rain has stopped and all my daddy chores and house chores are done so i have finally fitted the rear arches, and lowered the car........again.
