Just been trying to run the engine in from new. But it's blood*** hard not to press the pedal. She's not at full chat at the moment. I've already been on to Grant!

It's been a sadistic kick in the balls to get this on the road. And did not mean it to stand out. Just to do as I (I mean't the misses!) intended along the way!(she done the dash. Go on say it. A womans touch on the dash.)

She's not performing well though!. Lots of noise but not as expected. Problems somehwere. Oh here goes winter!
