hattymender Posted January 2, 2009 Posted January 2, 2009 It's Friday already! Holiday almost over and I'm up early waiting for daylight so I can cram 1 week's planned work into 1 day! The V8 is still scattered around a barn rather than rumbling me around (or rather from fuel station to fuel station). Excesses include: It's cold. Needed to fix Freealnder (head gasket). Day's too short. Stuff on telly (bit lame, but true). Ate too much. etc. All feeble. But I promised the lads at work I'd have it done. So I need a really good justification. Suggestions? Quote
bishbosh Posted January 2, 2009 Posted January 2, 2009 What you need is: A pair of steel toe capped boots A sledge hammer A visit from our very own Nigel - Hybrid from Hell. The result will be a legitimate excuse for not completing your tasks. Oh, did I mention it might hurt a bit lot? Quote
roybatty666 Posted January 2, 2009 Posted January 2, 2009 Waxoiling the cat might be another fair excuse I live opposite the south coast so I get a sea breeze straight into my garage, I found that after the first 10 minutes I couldn't feel anything, as a rsult I got my clutch and gearbox change completed. The only problem was coming back in and warming up where the pain of all the missing btis of knuckle and bruises from dropping a transfer box on my legs started to be come very apparant Although I have to confess that I did want to do my rusty footwell at the same time along with fitting my breather kit and doing my front output flange seal so ther was some procrastinating going on. Oh and tidying up the garage after all the work kind of died a death half way through (I hate that bit and lack the disapline to return and clean my tools as I go along). Quote
