It's been a while since I've updated this and indeed, seriously looking at the forum in any great depth. I've been reading topics I'm subscribed to as an when I've had a moment to try and at least keep up to date a little...
Moments have been very scarce recently due to things in my other life taking over and reaching a crescendo on Sunday... Even poor old Bluebell has not moved out of her garage for weeks.
That's all set to change this coming week as I'm taking a short break from my parkrun, running and bike racing activities and concentrating on some automotive and home-based recreation...

My experience of doing a bit of work on Polly will be documented here in due course... Another learning curve I expect!
