Yeah Les, what have you done? Nothing to do with the weekends over time job was it?

Ash, I know what you mean about the boredom thing. The other day I sat there wondering why soup spoons are round. How bad is that.

Kind regards

John

Looking good and yes you are shaming me in to getting some work done. I started the car when I was getting paid bonuses and now I'm not so stalled for a month or two. Still got a job which is a major plus. Enough of my crying

Question, what width of arches and what size of wheel/tyre are you using. I've seen a few cars recently where the wheels just don't fill the arches and it my opinion look naff.

That sounds a real bummer Les.

There was me thinking I was the only one that did things like that

You take it easy & try to enjoy thr rest ......... You know the buggers will have you back at the grindstone soon enough.

Thats the trouble with a " propper " sport, tends to take it's toll on your body over the years
