washing the gear box again?

Shussssssh, I usually put it in the dishwasher when she’s out

The clips most modern sinks use are a joke, if it's a mm out they slip out

On further inspection no clips, purely by the grace of silicone I’m surprised it lasted two years. That sink is massive so heavy when filled

Strangely enough I saw a lovely two door MK1 1600 Mexico in Berkhamsted this morning.

Same as my first motor. Same colour 1300 XL. The gear stick used to come off in my hand. Used PTFE tape to keep it attached.

Ha! Race bike cases always went through the dishwasher then into the oven before new inserting bearings.

First decent run out in the Porsche this afternoon visiting a town with a fair bit of history especially what was experienced during World War 2.
Roof down there with the bum warmers on but back up for coming home.
Had it 3 years come March and still rate it highly.

I even had a Richard Grant front spoiler on it….Remember Richard Grant accessories back in the 80’s Phil. The front spoiler used to ground out everyone I pressed the brake . Happy days.

That’s correct buddy…I remember going to an event with my Dad who was a mechanic … Sort of a trade show and saw Richard Grant stuff there. How things change buddy. I can see Dad now handing over cash for the spoiler looking so young. He is 87 now….

After they burnt the town what did they do to the hostages on the steps? My French isn’t good enough.

The 60 people were marched up those steep steps to the top expecting to be executed.
The Priest and some one from the Prefecture negotiated with the soldiers and they were spared.
The town was on fire for 2 days until the Americans arrived and they were liberated.

 

[fphil]

Yes but beforehand Segré was given by Richard Coeur de Lion to his wife
