Yes, I did get off my arse and did the oil on TBE, need to double check the level though.

Changed its steering idler whilst there, though not convinced the Lemforder one has any less play than the 10yr old GM one. Suppose a drive will tell.

Got the Kwaka started, so to ensure all the condensation was blown out, and minimise all those nasty acids, I thought I'd take it for a trundle. Its actually colder out there than it looks .  That said, within 6 or 7 miles of here, there are still 18" deep drifts at the side of the road...  ...and the melidioter crossing the road is enough to cause a minor butt clench.

Swapped the AR25 in my TD for the AR35 that has been gazing at me accusingly from the corner of the garage for the last 3 years. Many thanks to JamesV6CDX for doing all the donkey work. It was a pleasure to pass spanners to you James. Fitting the V5 chip next

Fitted a new aerial base gasket to replace the ugly silicone mess that I used when a pressure washer destroyed the original.
I'm not allowed excitement.
