:ten: :ten: :ten: Today has been a really good day, the sun was shining so:- Changed the oil and filter on the Majestic grey Changed the front brake fluid Cleaned and adjusted the chain Fitted the new rear indicator bulbs that enhance the clear lens (you'll see what I mean at the Ace) Stoveexed the exhaust And then to top it all took her for a 50 mile spin. ;D Yep, today has been really good Yesterday however, was spent sorting out my brothers car ready for his MOT, it was running a bit rough and smoking a little, so I drained about 2 1/2 lts of oil out of the engine that was surplus to requirements. (I have never seen oil so far above the max line before he is very lucky he did not trash the engine) Changed his brake fluid for the first time in 8 years and removed the two lumps of metal from the front brakes and replaced them with pads. Then took him to my local tyre fitter for two new tyres, got the puncture repaired he got last year and had the tracking sorted out. Not very mechanically minded is my brother.

Forgot to mention earlier also made my niece a lot happier now that she can hear the radio again without having to be blasted out due to a screeching fan belt.

Yup me too. It's looking a little shabby at the moment. Hopefully this cold spell will have cleared up for next weekend and hopefully it won't rain either. We've been lucky the last couple of years.
