It does what its meant to do though and that's all that matters

Mike's not driving.  Wonder if it's my turn to put it on its side this time.

Been preparing this for the Driving Day on Sunday, which should be messy.

The brakes have been complaining a lot for the past few drives, so I stripped down the front brakes last night.  There were stones trapped behind one of the splash guards which was the source of a lot of the complaints.  The splash guards have now been modified to stop this happening - slotted to allow the stones to fall out:



I also found that one of the sliders on the carriers on each side had seized VERY tightly.  Carriers came off and had a drill run down the sliders, then emery paper over the pins, nice big gob of grease put in and re-assembled.

Now stops much better!

Going by the state of the roads on the island and the colour of my car then we should just drive round town on Sunday
