Where were you at 05.00hrs yesterday Sam? Sleeping? Only Jamesa and I were posting on a thread! To misquote the title of a great film: "This CGTI is a Country for Old Men" Kelly Macdonald would warm any man's heart, let alone my 'old' knackered one. This CGTI because the other, Facebook CGTI, is where all the kids seem to be playing these days. Mind you. I am usually abed by 22.00hrs!
Feck. Here I am and someone posts that a 60 years old guy has died. (I Googled him!) Turns out to be a TV celeb. who has contributed zero to the real world. Paid millions to just fart about! I am 8 years older then he and contemplate death every day so I don't need to be reminded of mortality! It's 19.44 and I have drunk 2 x Sharp's Sea Fury and 1 x Fuller's London Pride and I am half way through a Dutch Gold. I am thinking of going to bed, without food, ( not eaten since 11.00 hrs) and taking extra anti-depression meds.. I am uber lonely as Lainey is in Bahrain looking after Ruth. She has been there since mid October and won't be back 'till Jan. 19. If then? So. What would be nice is if someone else slagged off the nasty cars that VAG are making these days. Golf R and Polo GTR. I ask you what relationship do either of those have to competition cars. Sad world we live in where marketing rules the roost at the expense of real performance Engineering! Mr Eyre once said I am a curmudgeonly pedantic old fart. I am not curmudgeonly. As I said to the company psychiatrist: "I am not a perfectionist I just get it right all of the time," Lots of love. Dave.
Its been a cold cold day my feet havent warmed up yet and Im not looking forward to another day in the cold tomorrow! But Im still alive yehhhh
I am not going out either Sam. Last week outside was enough for me when I had to sort the cam chain sprockets, re-wire the Hall sensor and free up a sticking rear caliper. Mind you this old unfinished barn refurbishment is not very warm! 12.7 deg. inside and -1.4 deg. outside!
Stayed in all day yesterday - hate wet more than cold. Luckily it will be a balmy zero degrees today here in Surrey so I can get a new radiator on the mk1 and remove the Mocal oil cooler/refit the factory item (outdoors of course)
