So paul,

you are right, i am a nutter.......... having been up since 4.30 making parts, ive literally just walked in.

I cant resist a bargain. Finished work at 5pm and just got back from Melton Mowbray, detour at Loughborough.

Keeping my options open for the future.

Going abroad in less than 7 days, but got my priorities right, R3 Diff and he threw in the drive shafts "because they differ in length by 2mm!" WTF?

but for £375 all in, I wasnt letting that one go.

Another productive evening!

Fitted the new bumper that I made.

Its only for show, has no structural integrity. Save the car getting scratched but thats it, weighs as much as a bag of paperclips.

Last of the primer on the pattern, big race to get a mould off it before the weekend is over.

Shame it wasnt productive enough to mow the lawn.

Not strictly my fault, bought one of these Makita Li-Ion 18V strimmers..... Thought ah go on, ill get with the modern times........

Got it home and found out it doesnt come with a battery or charger....... so gotta wait for that to be delivered.

Mr Flopsy mate (lion-head, lop earred rabbit)

Passed away last year after 8 years. Loved him to bits. Buried under the apple tree.

Had free roam of the back garden, lived in the garage and looked after the lotus before I tore it apart.

He was a grubby bugger, best way to describe him was relate him to "pig pen" from snoopy, the character that was constantly surrounded by a cloud of dust.

Mr Flopsy was quite often covered in his own poo, straw, matted furr, engine oil, under seal . He was grim, wouldn't change him for the world, and will never replace him.

If we had a drink down the bottom of the garden where that pic was taken, as you got up, he use to run rings around your feet so you couldn't  leave.
