Not much: trying to make room for a new bike bounce

Never thought I'd see the day I'd pay more for a bike than a car... yikes

Have obtained a planning permission for a garage, so at the moment everything is ongoing outside it... Mostly driving the wedge, 'to do's are for 2007.

Alan, hope your engine will look 'as new' when you open it up.

Getting ready to have my garage outfitted with all new wall cabinets and flooring for maximum efficiency. Then, the wedge will have some fiberglass work done to get ready for a fresh coat of white paint, interior woodwork will be renewed and then it'll be ready for spring and TVRs 60th birthday.

If you must know I've been polishing wheels.

Did you know each pigging wheel has 30 bolts to replace?

I'm on my 9th (and, thankfully, my last one)
262 bolts replaced, 8 to go.

It is one seriously boring job. sleep

I am taking up bank robbery next as I have no finger prints left. bandit

Who the hell invented winter & made us think such jobs would be fun & rewarding?
I would like a word with them!

I feel your pain (and blisters) from when I replaced all 120 bolts on my wheels curse

It was a right pain in the ass job but when finished, you can stand back and admire your handywork cloud9 while you rub some soothing lotion into your blistered hands...
