The good morning thread

[Felonious Crud]

That’s better... X-pipe on and noise liberated!

On the down side I have play in one tie rod, I thought as much driving it last week it was kicking about on the gear changes a bit!

Haha, the throaty roar of evil is thine! Well done, Newton.

Good morning all, a bit of gardening for me too, got to take another look at Alex’s exhaust as the bracket joining the two has not held.

Have fun all...

Desperately trying to fill my day so I don’t end up sat outside the pub in the sun.
Got messy on Friday,

Well, that was a kind of non weekend. Crappy weather and not much done. The pinnacle of my weekend achievement was to take a load of old shite to the dump. And getting rained on while I was there. Hmph.

Morning all giving the Jaguar a service today for this weeks road trip.
Have a good Monday all.

Morning, all. Train, cussin', London, meetings, cussin', train, home. Tomorrow to Madrid, so that'll give me something different to cuss about.

Today I am spending the morning being reminded yet again of the bureaucratic purgatory of engaging in litigation in Costa Rica against a large Chinese company. The bloody paperwork! Oh, and the bloody process! Hence the cussin'.

Have a good Monday, everyone.

Morning all, first day of the schools Easter break... the utilisation bonus has been revoked and I have one day booked over the two weeks... I wonder how much work I will find for the company!!!
Here's a hint, it will be about the same number of days I'll take as leave!
The two weeks will be marked as lost and I just don't care!

Hello everyone!
Well that was a good afternoon putting some miles on the Spyder and tuning her up for a trip to Europe. Classic moment pulling up in the Spyder at the local BMW showroom and reverse parking right by the door... the ladies on reception were totally melting and gawping over the car and I could see it all in my mirrors. Then, when I get out of the car and walk in they rearranged themselves and pretended nothing had happened but two of the three were too overcome to be able to greet me or make eye contact.
I also watched the clock tick over the 30k miles so now she's at 30,004 - so any of you with lower mileage GS Spyders have just seen your values go up! For me, that means the only sensible thing to do with her is to drive her more, make more noise and have more fun!
Today I'm meeting with the CEO to work out the constraints (as far as he's concerned) for my megalomaniacal new role. Should be good.
Any of you lot who live over Essex way fancy a visit on Thursday evening? Looks like I need to be in Southend for the late afternoon and I'd like to avoid the M25 during rush hours.
HapPea Monday!

Morning all. In the office today catching up from 3 days out last week including a trip to Bonnie Scotland.

My day will involve a catch up from last week, follow ups from last weeks meetings, followed by arranging another 21 surveys to be done by the end of next week.
Which I'm reliably informed is Easter to I'll lose a day.
Even more miles on the Jag! 7,500 in 3 months is pretty good going!

Have a good Monday, everyone.

Good luck with any kind of litigation against a Chinese company, have been involved in two such instances in the past.
Both involved th said Chinese company denying everything and anything and then a complete refusal to respond to anything further.

Top tip. Get someone else to do it! If only for your sanity.
