    Morning denizens

    Grey and very, very gloomy out

    There's much crashing and banging out the back as the scaffolding on the doctor's place is slowly disassembled and carted piece by piece down the fire escape.

          Morning all

          Gloriously sunny here today but it's mindnumbingly cold at -3. All frost no snow.

            Bugger.

            Looks like the flywheel on my car is dying. Apparently it's a common problem as it's some sort of complicated dual mass jobbie. Just hope it lasts long enough to get me home and into the garage

                  Nah, gave up on it as it was costing a fortune and I couldn't claim back the costs other than mileage as putting it through the business would have put it into company car territory. Once I went over the 10,000 mile limit for the year it was costing me more than I was getting back in expenses.

                  Even if this fix is expensive it's only the equivalent of a couple of months rental costs.

                      I may have to if they can't get it fixed before next week

                      O the plus side I'm only down here two days next week.
