Replaced the nearside Track rod end.

Problem diagnosed on Tuesday afternoon, part ordered from PA Blanchard Tuesday evening, shipped Weds, arrived here in Scotland with Royal Mail at lunchtime, fitted and vehicle "task-worthy" again. Well done PA Blanchard, great service as usual.

Hopefully the tracking will be OK, the TRE was basically screwed almost fully in, so I've just replicated that !  I'll check to see if there is any sign of scrubbing after its done a few miles...

Removed the offside fuel tank and re-soldered the filler tube as it had cracked.

I thought I was the only one who did that on here.

I did go into the garage last night and patted the Landy as I passed.

Used my IIA to drag my next restoration project out the hedge and into the workshop.

Played musical chairs in shifting the 1960 S2 and the 63 Aussie 2a in preparation for the arrival of "Mr Scabby" a 1982 109" ex army General Service on Wednesday. Both started easily after sitting for a couple of weeks. This afternoon went to collect a set of hood sticks for Mr Scabby which turned up on Facebook, and bought a 5mb engine from the seller.

I took YOD on a round trip of 50 miles  today to go to Chris Gregson's wake, only 2 years after he died.  It was good to meet his family.

Well, she's off to Abergavenny Steam and Vintage on Friday with Helga (Eriba Puck) in tow. And it's over a year for both since their last scrub up!
