Tonight, get in, shower, meet my mate Markie. Decide if we're going to the pub, or getting some in. Either way, it will involve a couple of beers! List the Discovery on fleabay, so it gets a good airing over the weekend.

Saturday AM, get up early, go to VX to collect some components. Then set to work on getting the 2.0 running - ideally want it done by the evening, weather permitting. I can then check the ATF level, check for thrust washer, and decide if the box is knackered or not.

Sunday, tinker with car in morning, and in afternoon, f all is well with the car, I'd like to chill out and take the doggies to the beach, possibly involving a cold drink outside a nice pub afterwards!

Monday - day off - may or may not be looking to change gearboxes!

Tuesday, working.

Wednesday, working.

Thursday - day off - big interview at 11am

Friday - Sat - Sun - Mon Camping with maria, my boss, and his family

Tuesday - Another big interview - with the boss I'll have been camping with all weekend ;D ;D

(Me thinks, get him drunk and dig for interview questions ;D )

I'm going to be playing with radios with these guys: http://www.madjacks.org.uk/

And yes, that tower has been known to arrive behind an MV6.  :o

Not this time, thankfully, so I can look forward to more than 17 MPG.
