Nope, sorry, all out of good cheer at the moment.
Just remember it's green stuff slippy, black stuff grippy.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

It gets slightly worse, looks like the welder (second one) didn't disconnect the battery so the ecu and ignition module are buggered too.
Sigh.

Ady, give me a call in morning when setting off.

I'm just getting to bed after a long day, started on the champagne at 11am, and about 24 bottles later between 16 of us, im not feeling too bad.

Set my alarm for 8am, will drive back home from hotel by 9, any luck be in the dales for 10.
