Got the day off work today

So I shall be refitting my alternator after the bracket broke...then...

Clearing out my garage so I can get project rotbox on the spit and get the welding finished. I've had the offer of an interesting engine for peanuts which I'm looking at tomorrow....

HMM can't beat days off work to spend tinkering in the garage. Going to have to dream of one of those now....

you could order some veg and have a stakeout and catch him

i've got loads of time but nothing to tinker with

Phew. I'm having my first break since I got going this morning. The Anglia is now on the spit and I've rolled it onto its side. It really is light. I had to make up new mounts as the spit is for an Escort.

I've not been down to the tip yet, but I've got a whole load of shite to take down there. But I won't be doing that today. I've got Amelia to pick up at 3.15 so I've just got time to grab something to eat and tidy away all the stuff that's on the drive.

Oh and I fitted the Alternator back onto the van. And when the wife gets back from her little jaunt to the big smoke with work, she's say 'Well you could have tidied up...'

That's MAD!

Who puts engines in peanuts?

And talking of nuts, Toby enters the room...

Pretty big hey!!

Here are some pictures. The garage had become a dumping ground. A lot of stuff was in the shed which we've had to clear out so the rabbit can go in there over winter.

I managed to make up some brackets for the spit using angle iron

Luckily, my calculations for the centre of the car were spot on. I can turn it right the way over! The stuff underneath the car was stuff that was in it when I started turning it over!

Now, tomorrow I should have time to actually go to the tip to get rid of a load of stuff.

Your garage looks like the sort of thing where you have to throw the last thing in it and shut the door quickly.

On the spit subect (No Burns) you could offer a cleaning service for people with cabriolets.

Something like that. I'm going to be harsh tomorrow. If I've not used it in a while, I don't need it, so it's getting binned....

That's the Anglia gone then

There's an idea...
