So many people DIW.

Did you get a receipt?

I haven’t even paid anything but it’s arriving the day I get back from honeymoon. The old one is going the same day. Perfect.

Have you seen this leak yet?

I did wonder about Nick's hair in the first part. Glad it was an intentional set up.

The little hose connector which mounts on the bulkhead for the coolant pipes is a thing of beauty. I wonder if they make more from their videos than they do from their engineering business now, though?

most Ferraris are fitted with paddles in large part not because they are " built for pure speed" but because it makes them more docile pottering around town posing and/or more acceptable to the NCG middle aged men that make up a significant portion of their clientele. You're not wrong - t...

Something I've always thought looked amazing, and still does now: the Bertone Ramarro. Based on a Corvette C4, I know there was at least one running car but I think it was just a concept and not released to the public. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/37/Bertone_Ramarro_%282495...

No, I once went to a Warhammer shop when I was young with some Space Crusader models I’d painted.

Pulling the choke out and pushing it back at the right time, mixture adjustment levers: both skills to be gained and utterly irrelevant now.

Gears themselves are only a product of small operating bands of engines.

How does that help my bald spot?

Getting married (or at least, picking up cake, suits, dress etc).

Richard, I suspect from your hairy Facebook picture you're not suffering from a bald spot, but that's another thing to beware of. A baseball cap may be unseemly on someone of my advancing years but it's a necessity

Coming up to 21k miles in my Audi. I still really like it. I'll do an end of term report when it goes next month but in the meantime, it has an annoyance: the driver's side sunvisor won't quite stay put in its extended position now. The passenger one works fine.

I might well be available that weekend.

Choosing a route is much harder these days, traffic is so much worse. But let’s aim for somewhere like Wantage/Newbury to meet up and heading a bit west towards Avebury.

Oh, I must try out the Audi's launch control before it goes back.
