Happy 37th Birthday
Happy 37th birthday to the Beast! My new belle is the same age! However, the Beast is currently under covers looking sad and tired with no MOT, holes in the hood, dodgy paint repairs and a crap gearbox. And nothing can be done for the time being. Shame. Hopefully by April ...

Dead Gearbox Official
Took the car in to finally have the oil and Molyslip installed in the gearbox. Phil says the box is knackered. Drive it home, second to third assists to be better and there is no problem in fourth or fifth. In third, the axle is whining, he also reckons that that is knackered too. Third to second is still awful.
However, as it is knackered and this can't get any worse, bugger it, I'm going to try to get to the Pershore show on BH Monday...

New Carb Bar Thingy
Well, not a new bar, just the plastic end things. Cost a poxy tenner! Took some adjusting as the carbs were tuned using the old taped up knackered one.
