5 years ago! Back in the day when I didn't have a plan or really a clue what I was doing. Still, the engine still running after the diy rebuild/porting.... touch wood.

Well the pipes have been RE-coated (see what I did) lol

While I'm here I'd like to apologise. I've had the support from many on here over the last 5 years. During this build and since it's been finished I've kinda gone to ground.

Lots going on in personal life. Despite my physical and mental health having a bit of a dip ... I've quit my job as Operations Director through fear of ending up in jail. I'm working from home on the Rusky Rotary earning some £.
Applied for many jobs, had first and second interviews, lost opportunities, been offered jobs. I'd love to go self employed but that needs to be more established. Been offered a business partnership, however I'm not sure. But I don't know which way to turn at mo. I'm not planning on going back to "work" till mid September. But let's see what happens.

I'm still a strong advocate for rotary's, just not been very active on here. So sorry for the lack of posts, lack of responses to people's questions, lack of comments to pics or vids.... Just generally lacking.

Hey, absolutely no need to apologise, Jamie!

You have posted some original, fascinating, inspiring stuff on here over many years now. I always hugely look forward to updates on your projects and other stuff, but there is never any pressure or expectation for you to post.

Sorry your job search is having issues, but with your skills and attributes, I'm certain you will eventually find a job you will feel is right for you.

Good luck on the job front. You will be an asset to have so hope you find someone/something you're happier with soon.

On the posting front .... don't worry your fine beard about it! We all have our own personal challenges which mean other things have to take priority.  Look after yourself and Emma first and foremost, rotarys second

So finally got round to fixing my saggy headlining. This one is easy to fit, it's cheap, makes your car lighter and looks just like GRP

In other news I'm employed again. Accepted a job this morning after salary negotiations. Now working as manufacturing engineering manager. It's spitting distance from home, got perks of sheet steel, machinery, powder coating etc also with an added benefit of not facing a jail sentence.

The prospect of being self employed will have to remain as a working hobby ....

Looks very TVR'ish and there's nothing wrong with that  :great:
