Nothing too exciting today (yet!). Topped up my washer fluid, checked oil and pumped the tyres back up a bit to 33/30. Good time to check the tyres as it's cold and the car hasn't been used for a couple of days. They were all down a couple of psi. :)

Yeah, I know. Cleaned and hoovered it the other day then had to do other stuff around the house so no chance to get out for a blast. About to rectify that in about 15 mins though... :D

Today I had to replace this bolt in the engine mount that decided it had had enough.

Caused the cambelt to rub against the cover but fortunately no damage done.

Replaced drivers side door lock unit. 3 hours yesterday before it was dark and about another 3 frustrating hours today, but all done and dusted now., Car was fighting me in just about everyway it can to make the job harder than it should be including a threaded nut on the window mechanism. Many thanks to asasprey for supplying the door unit.

well its safe as houses in there think there is only 25 to 30 spaces for the flats i live in on my carpark floor (each floor is individually sealled and a key fob needed to get in and out).

hate leaving the car as i love driving it. as mentioned before i do minimal miles and even less as i live city centre and pubs are SOO easy to get home from now :)

work to pub in 26 steps. pub to home is a 6 min walk and there is a kebab shop on route... gotta love norwich :)
