As you may have read in an earlier thread I am recovering from a heart attack which happened 4 weeks ago. Complete surprise as I am a fit and healthy chap. Anyway, making great recovery and started back in the workshop over the weekend fettling the Griff. Fitted my refurbished badges (what a superb job Leven did) and the silicon breather pipes and replacement induction hoses from ACT (have all the coolant hoses to do at some point). As it was such a nice day today, and as I am driving again, thought it a great idea to go for a run in the Griff (have not been out in her since January). So put the hood down, and went for a good blast including taking in some of the countryside back lanes - great stuff, just right for recuperation!!!biggrinbiggrinbiggrinbiggrin
