One clause - I need a bed to lay my little weary head down on after a few beers

I'll be out of your hair early Saturday as I'll be getting a lunchtime train back to Norfolk to join the family for the BH weekend.

Any takers

Thomas - I can meet you in town and bring you to 'Surby Towers' - I have a spare room too.....it'll cost you a pint of Coke tho

I plan to get there for about 18:00 to meet and greet so I would leave central London about 17:00

sulphuric acid, crispy copper strands & some brittle plastic & electical tape not really an appetising menu is it.

Looks like a CIS wire chaffed and shorted against an intake runner, took the whole cis wiring out in the engine bay and I've removed everything including the relay board and it appears to have stopped there fortunately, all the other wires are ok, any further or hotter and it could have been very unpleasant

So my next project will be putting a new engine wiring loom into production
