Jim, no, that's Steve the bricklayer... not me.

Red dwarfer - not sure what it is exactly, but trust me, I am not able to keep up with maintaining it, and, like I said, if I get a major problem with it, then it's out of action for long periods of time - getting spares, learning how to install/repair etc. The big oil loss was a real mess with oil everywhere - very dispiriting.

Lest said the better really.

I think they get some peverse pleasure slashing the seats, kicking all the panels in and urinating over everything...
Are these lads really so feral and stupid? :? Amazing! At some point this year, I'll be probably having to deal with such types for basic Activa underpinnings - unless I delegate to someone like Handyman.

I found this interesting blog on engine removal. I expect it's already known about on FCF.
