Was talking about this just a couple of hours ago, 140 days! So in this time I need to

1) Hard wire and hide the radar detector somewhere really sneaky to avoid the French BIB
2) Send the 993 to DMS to have a little open brain surgery for a few extra nags under the hood
3) Get the body work sorted out from last year
4) Remove last years parking ticker which is stuck like sh1t to a blanket at present
5) Fill the glove box with dough ready to pay for the French BIB’s next Christmas party once the detector has been confiscated and destroyed

Can’t wait, can almost smell the mix of Castrol R, burning tents and stale beer, fantastic! Number 17 here we come

My jobs to do include:

1) Renew my passport, probably a priority as without it nothing else matters
2) Get my car's electrics sorted so I have working wipers and heated rear screen
3) Get my speakers replaced and head unit unstalled, tuneful as the V8 is I would like something else for the 642 miles from mine to Le Mans
4) Rig up laser detector as previously mentioned
5) Get the cambelt changed, probably prudent
6) Change the rubber, another set of Eagle F1s methinks.
