hi guys

after a week long conference in brighton and a ridiculous amount of money spent on alcohol i thought i would give the car a bit of love today with a clean.

my head wasn't up to a full 2 bucket wash, followed by a wax session so a quick jetwash and then dried with some microfibre and then out to enjoy the sun.

the bugger is the battery on my camera died after one pic - what an arse!

anyway - will get some more next week once i am on hols in devon.

so, one nice pic at least......

yeah i know bud. been concentrating on sorting all the mechanical stuff first. done the cambelt and tensioner now, full exhaust, uprated springs, handbrake and only a couple of little jobs to come and then the wheels will be addressed along with a new front wing or two!!

i'm going to clay the wheels this weekend to see if that makes a difference...
