kiwicanfly What sort of "establishments" were you guys frequenting on that trip and should you be publishing it  These TV types can get a bit boisterous - look at Jeremy Clarkson.(Better yet, don't!)

These TV types can get a bit boisterous .....whoa, hang on! "TV types" has several connotations! Is this the real reason why the duck tape was being applied to Bob's hairy leg? (.....I'm still slightly mystified why Bob appears only to have one hairy leg....  ). Martin |

A man can stand only so much pain (ask any woman), so I reckon the other leg was done the day before, allowing for recovery of strength and the imbibing of strong liquor.

I think the final tally was 12 breakdowns but all minor So once you've built a kit car even an engine swap can be done in an evening and be classed as "minor" Love it! |

We had a bit of luck with finding a engine local and my wife was very understanding until we started it up after 9pm and annoyed my neighborhood

When I was selling last house the deal had gone unconditional and the buyers visited one afternoon about a week before they moved in. My neighbor picked that moment to start the engine on his sons new junior dragster "Not normally this noisy" I said  |
