    Ta Daaaaa.... Im here ! One thermostat, one exhaust and a full trim of a fitted DG back door complete ! (And 2 pints in the beer garden of el'local)

    Been the scrappy too... Had to because the !!!!!! who had the car before me decided not to replace the thermo, simply to remove it !! Thus no fitting clips. Ahhh... So I saw 4 new wheels with good tyres (I need new tyres) and new front a nd rear seats ... all for £50 (Next week) Drivers seat is iffy !!

    Vry looking forward to Manchester Tomorrow....

    "Tip of the day"

    When you're doing a dirty finger nail job, stick your fingernails into a bar or soap before you start. The offending dirt is absorbed by the soap and when you've finished a nail brush gets shut of the soap and the dirt. One's fingernails are left all bright and sparkly clean; especially if you get hold of the wire brush by mistake :D

    The soap gets behind your nails, like filling cracks with Polyfilla when you're decorating; doesn't make your finger ends slippery.
