Went for a test drive just before tea today as work tomorrow and diving Thursday. Did 10 miles town driving and suddenly felt the heat shift felt off so turned for home. Stripped threadsin back of gearbox and linkage fell onto propshaft. It was on 1st hear so 5000+revs for a mile and then the fan belt went.

Oh NO! Hard luck Mick. Really sorry I can't offer you a seat or I would do. Engine is out of mine and I have 'hitched a lift' with Glen. Get there somehow?

If you can run 20 miles, you're in much better condition than you think you are bounce
