Dammit! There are too many other threads on this web site.
How am I supposed to get a good morning's drivelling done?Drivelling in TPD is not a mental health issue. We're just community blogging, that's all.

Yeah the aux drive belt. Car still runs. Was only 2 miles from my place so decided to get the car there.....the fecking water pump runs off that belt doesn't it!!!Originally posted by zeitghost View PostWhich drive belt?
I thought you said they'd changed the cambelt, so I assume it's the power steering belt or the "fan belt"...
Nearly fried the fecking engine. Hope I haven't done something daft like cooked the head that would be a tulipter - note to self. Check to see if water pump is electric or belt driven...gah.
The real pita in the they replaced everything under the engine on that side cam belt, cam belt tensioner, drive belt but not the drive belt tensioner. Going to play dumb and see if I can get them fix it for a discount etc.Comment

Had a cracking idea for plan E over the w/end
It won't make loads of money - especially at first, but once I build up a nice database it should start to.
Trouble is - there just isn't enough time in the day to work on this and client co work and buy the house and progress plans B, C and D!!!
And play with Baby BearSi posse, recte, si non, quocumque modo remComment

Airport time is dead time - so I can drop in here! Although the paper is suggesting that I should read that instead. Work is too busy to allow me to post much in the week.
Weekend was good - lovely weather. Spent time with the girls, had to buy a new laptop and install software on it for MrsF, went for a walk and a play in the park yesterday afternoon in the sunshine.
