Dickymint - you plonker...........

Fixed the brakes yesterday - Bled the rear using a Gunson eezibleed kit which is a great bit of kit
Also fitted Steve Heaths brake nipple extension pipe, another great bit of kit

So excited to be able to drive hard and safe so went for a blast around town to annoy the OAPs. Started to splutter and felt like She was firing on 4 cylinders - managed to limp home and take a look. Dived straight in with the meter checking all the obvious and found nothing. Got the EFI manual out this morning to go deeper. Had a mate come round to help (he knows feck all about cars). After about 30 minutes he chirps up and asks "any petrol in it". Me thinks shut up you fool 10 minutes later She wouldn't even start let alone splutter. Glanced at the petrol gauge and then calmly said to mate "let's call it a day I need to go somewhere, meet you in the pub later". So now i'm off to the garage to get a can full of petrol and hope he doesn't see me. DOH...........

OMFG the chow was fecking awsome! I nearly organismed. Some good hooning roads to get to the place as well. Drove through USofK a couple of times as well just 'cos of the noise

Was gonna call in Minty but it was getting on a bit by the time we finished scoffing and I know you go to bed early..

Ended the night by hoooooning through the Brynglas tunnels at MACH3......unfortunately in me Grief, which will have to do for now...still sounded good though.
