    Ah just unnecessary delays and costs, having to buy things twice pi$$es me off.

    One step forward two steps back at present.

    Yeah in the grand scheme of things, its no biggy.

    Just alot of time, effort, money, cold nights in the sheds, with not alot of results lately.

    So it turns over now, just need the igniters for first fire.

    A bit of luck on my side for once, igniters are on their way, alternator on the way.

    I had set next weekend (being my grandmothers 90th bday party) as a "if its not done by then, there is something very wrong" kind of target months ago.

    Car will be home tonight and if the Aust Post gods are aligned, first fire tomorrow night

    I've set a few of these targets.





    I gave up after the 25th attempt at making a date to finish though

    I dont set unrealistic targets or goals but relying on others is ALWAYS the delay.

    Why for the last 2 nights I have been in the shed until 2am doing it myself and will continue to do so until I am either dead or it is going
