Spent the afternoon under and around the Pluriel trying to get to the bottom of the funny noise coming from under the cam belt cover. Struggled to get the blasted thing off without doing all the stuff you are supposed to do. Had a really good look around, used my stethoscope on everything and couldn't find or hear anything. Part of one of the tiny, stupid fixing screws fell out when I took it off. Totally cannot understand how it could have got inside it as they fit from the outside and are designed to not fall out when you undo them, sort of captive jobbies. Cannot see how it would lead to a sort of small "woosh, woosh" noise. 
Anyway, it seems to be quiet, i.e. normal, now. But then it always does go quiet when it warms up, not that I warmed it up, careful to avoid it.
Tomorrow morning will tell me.
Hate this sort of stoopid problem.
Oh and the all-singing, all-dancing head light that dottir gave me for Xmas, (chosen by me off tinternet) has turned out to be pants. Not bright enough and won't shine where I want it. It's one with coloured strip LEDs and a little, ornery, bulb shaped light that shines from the left hand side of my head.
I have two others that I only rarely use because they are cumbersome and get banged a lot! I just seem to manage with a smallish but very bright hand LED torch.
If anyone has any suggestions for a really good one I am all ears!!

He was OK. Shame he died of lung cancer never having smoked in his life. Too much passive smoking, playing the trumpet in smoky night clubs.
Can't think who his friend is!
I have both a Time machine and a Tiny. Haven't even wound either up for years. W hates that I haven't got rid of them.Still got the Beeb-B in my loft, along with a dual disk-drive unit and a load of games. Saddo I am.
