Steve, surely you've honed the........ "you have no idea how much money I'm saving by doing this myself?" (at which point you get out the dealer service price list)

You wouldn't believe how many tools I've bought under that pretence....... :D

I've taken to Excel spreadhseets. To be honest the numbers are made up, but I find women do like a good spreadsheet.

Oh, and there's always the secret bank account. We all have secret bank accounts....... don't we?............

they do like spreadsheets, but i prefer the secret credit card and separate bank accounts. That remind me better sort out a week away, before i spend money on more upgrades / track days etc.

Good man.... you know it makes sense.

I assume by "week away" you're talking about joining the guys for Le Mans?...........

Steve, When the doctor tells you can remove the splints and it's okay to type again, you be sure to let us know how you get on with that.......... :D

i didn't go out till midnight, so 45 mins to grind two pads and refit wasn't too bad.
