Bananarama! happens, Simon. My Daughter got made redundant twice and wrote two cars off in a month.
It must be hard, but you need to dig deep and be very resilient at the moment.....She has had to lower her aspirations considerably given the current climate.

Well i'm lucky enough to have a paid break from work so.. drinking, building my motor top end with new cam etc (but not same time as drinking!), playing Midnight Club LA on the PS3 and Dodge Challengers will not go round corners like Rice, damit

What Christmas break? I was back in at 6am yesterday, and I'll be back in Friday too. I have been freezing my nadgers off in the workshop after work as per usual, making slow progress but progress none the less...

Even with a small heater I could not be bothered. Until today. I dragged myself in there and did a couple of little jobs on the Chally to get me in the swing of things.
Polished the 4 stainless rings that hold the headlights in. But found I have now somehow got two odd high beam lights?

Don't know (or remember) how that happened.
I finished restoring the two front turn signals and started on the two front marker lights.
Mounted the MAP sensor to the engine and sorted out a bit of hose to connect it. Have to wire it up and fit the 5v regulator for it somewhere yet.
But it is a start.

I need to make a start and rub down the interior of the Sox and paint it, but cannot find the enthusiasm for it..........
