Title: A successful day - sort of.
Post by: Kevin Wood on 31 August 2008, 00:14:21
Been getting the Westfield ready to go to Scotland next weekend.

Following an embarassing display of displeasure last weekend a new battery was sourced. Quite a bit of cash saved on the Halfrauds trade card. :y

Decided that the fuel pump with its' hammer-assisted starting had to go. Sadly, due to bad planning, I had 3/4 of a tank of fuel which had to come out. Some of it came in handy when the mower ran out later though.

Just got to find out where I left the fuel filler cap now. >:( Ran into the house with a mouthful of 98RON shortly after removing it when a syphon attempt went a bit wrong and I'm temporarily unaware of its' location. Don't really fancy 1500 miles with a bit of rag stuffed in the hole. :-/

My day started with nothing going to plan, and it was doing jobs I bloody hate - car radios.

Then, once I'd had a good fry up Brunch, everything started going almost to plan.  Job nearly finished, just one more bit to finish off - probably after Newent now.

There's my mistake. I knew that muesli sh!t was going to do me no good at all. ::)
