Good Morning everyone.
A good frost here this morning first in awhile so coffee in front of the fire.
Lifting the engine out of the Renault 16 this morning.
Omicron causing chaos here which is a pain.
Stay Safe all.

Morning all, a chilly one out there looking at the frost.

Mrs Z broke Andy's BMW again, this time lost one of the front grill pieces but apparently easily replaceable so not time to recycle it yet

Morning, you 'orrible lot. I was outside for five minutes to get some morning sun (it's good for the heart and soul, getting some morning light in your face first thing) and confirm that it is indeed cold. Which is good. As it should be. Another thing which is as it should be is my diary, which is mercifully quite clear today. Stuff to do and I'm happy to crack on with it uninterrupted.

Have a good, um, Wednesday, is it?

Good morning everyone, I can confirm that it is Wednesday.
Doing the Crud thing of getting some sunshine, I can confirm that it's cold here too but do not fret, my daffodils in the front Garden are peeking through the soil....spring is coming....

Morning all. Bit frosty this morning, but that gave me time to work out the perfect seating position in the Merc whilst the windows defrosted. I think there are 7 different ways the seat moves!
Massive improvement on the Jag. Which is up for sale is anyone wants one?

Have they still got the infra red key? If you’re wondering what it does point it at the receiver on the handle and hold the open button and the top will come down.

XF-S diesel?

I thought it'd sold anyway?

Yep it's an XF-S.
Even though I told the bloke that it needed £500 of paint on bonnet, wing and bumper because of lacquer peel, before he looked at it, he turned up and then said "it's a bit too much work".
FFS!
If it's got peel the size of a 5p or the size of a football, you still need to paint the whole panel! Bell end!

Only wanted 3.5k for it. Might just paint it and put it up for 5.5kwhich is right in the middle of the going rate. Probably still a little cheap.
It's just hassle I can't be bothered with.

That would be very cheap as a hack.

Morning, rabble!
What glorious night skies we've had for the last two nights! I went out for a walk last night up the hill and lay on my back on a fallen oak trunk to gaze up. Lush as!
Well, I suppose I'll do a bit of work today no meetings and my business partner is off for the afternoon so I can get some bits and bobs done in peace.
The Christmas tree will come down and go to the village hall for collection, and then off to South Londonshire for dinner.
HapPea Thursday! xXx
