Andrew (Demlot) & Bharat (buttwipe)

Bharat (buttwipe) came round mine on friday and helped me remove the head from my car (recent cam belt failure)

took a little while as we were going at it blind
took a good half day.

then saturday Andrew (Demlot) & Bharat (buttwipe) came round
and helped me (or should i say i helped them)
take the head from another engine and fit it to mine
and was there until about half twelve at night helping me get things sorted.

got up early this morning changed the oil & filter
and the car is great so thanks very much boys
its very much appreciated any time i can return the favour just gimme a shout

got some pics while at work

The spare engine

LOL. Looks like the 'buttwipes' have done their job.

Didn't get back home until about 1:30, as Andrew's dumb Satnav took us right through the City.

Well, not too bad actually, as loads of people were out pubbing/partying, so there was plenty to 'admire' in the mega-slow traffic winkeye

Glad to hear everything is running fine mate. Will see you tomorrow at some stage....
