bugger me. i spent ages last night typing up a long blog post and the computer chose to shit itself just as i went to post it. i had forgotten why i like linux so much, sure i still managed to break that but it took a long time to do so, not one evening.

i won't bother with the full story but the basics are as follows.

gave a friend a hand changing a handbrake cable. haven't worked on a complete, living car for years. absolutely loved it. reminded me why this is my hobby.

got given a set of 54/5 cylinderhead tinware, rather pleased. i'm a bit of a geek.

various rambles about a friend, my hate of ilitracy, what is happening on the work front etc.

the end... except it was about 10 or 15 long paragraphs and obviously rather verbose.
