Hope the dark blue wedge on the M40 hard shoulder made it home.

Would have stopped to help but had no tools on me, and was chasing a bemmer in the outside lane at speed. He thought he owned the road, when we all know wedgers do !!

Also big up to the Aston at High Wycombe for chasing me up the road ( with wifey on board !)

Great time had by myself and Michelle and hopefully she will arrive back soon !!!

Does not sound good ? Even worse than my broken piston / head last year.
Could not have done much if I had stopped then.

What engine is it ? As I have a 4.0 l crankshaft in my garage - using to hold dirty rags at present !

thats a major thing to go.
Hope the repair is done soon Stephen - I think you said the wedge had just spent time having work done recently. (We saw you at J4 at start of convoy). What things had just been fixed?
