i've finally got pc up and running so can get back on here
on saturday we pulled bumper back out, and beat it with a big hammer so it kinda straight...., took angle grinder to front grill after sally ingested 2 screw drivers we were attempting to release bonnet catch with, replaced the cable that hadn't snapped had just pulled out, so now we've got a spare, and fitted new front grill ( andy at al told me £15, dean went down and only paid £10, so i'm not asking how he paid the remainder
)
although, now i think about it, i gave him £30, and got £10 back....cheeky sod must have pocketed £10 for going!) sally now has black rather than a grey sun bleached front end,so no longer looks like mine. used the air line to blow half a field full of mud and grass out of rad (making the most of not having grill)
then sunday went on a club playday at Canford Bottom, in dean's. got stuck a couple of times, ended up sat on FIL's bonnet as ballast, fell over while laughing at dean and got so dirty i ended up hosing myself down then stripping to undies before entering the house.
