I wish I’d videoed it now. I was working with a bunch of ex miners from North Notts and they were impressed watching as I pushed the barb back through and asked one of them to pass me the pliers to pull it out.

Spent this past week working on the car. There was an issue with engines built by our engine builder. We took it out of the car on Thursday evening drove 2 1/2 hours to the builders shop, he checked it out. It's fine. We drove home at midnight. Now it's Friday. I went to bed at 4a.m, got up at 7a.m. My brother and I dropped the engine back in the car. My nephew got home from work early. We finished up and off he went to the track. I met up with them later. He placed 1st in his heat. Woohoo!!!
Here we are on Saturday waiting for the feature race he'll be in. Been here since 3pm and it's 8:35....stay tuned.

That's my brother next to the car. My husband is in the chair. The dog is "Smoke". He is a 3 yr old feisty rescue my nephew adopted. A couple of months ago he ran under the race car and attacked the portable starter when the car was being started after some work was done. His upper lip got pulled into the starter gear and did a number on his lips and tore a few teeth out. It cost $900 dollars to stitch him up. He recovered well and doesn't get as close to the car anymore.
 
Today I worked on my friends old lawnmower. Normally I avoid them because people generally don't take care of them and keep them clean. My friend included. It is not the easy fix I was hoping it would be but I have some ideas and will keep working away.
Last night my nephew did not finish his race. He had to pull off the track. We don't know what is wrong with the car yet. He said he heard a couple of popping sounds, it seemed to lack a little power and when the engine temp started going up he pulled off. Tomorrow we'll take a closer look.

Yikes, but it does remind me of my mates favourite joke. What does a dog with a hare lip say? Mark, mark!
Yeah, I never thought it was funny either…

Bitchin' Camaro, bitchin' Camaro
I ran over my neighbors
Bitchin' Camaro, bitchin' Camaro
Now I'm in all the papers

My folks bought me a bitchin' Camaro
With no insurance to match
So if I happen to run you down
Please don't leave a scratch

I ran over some old lady
One night at the county fair
And I didn't get arrested
Because my dad's the mayor

Bitchin' Camaro, bitchin' Camaro
Donuts on your lawn
Bitchin' Camaro, bitchin' Camaro
Tony Orlando and Dawn

When I drive past the kids
They all spit and cuss
'Cause I've got a bitchin' Camaro
And they have to ride the bus

So you'd better get out of my way
When I come through your yard
'Cause I've got a bitchin' Camaro
And an Exxon credit card

Bitchin' Camaro, bitchin' Camaro
Hey man where ya headed?
Bitchin' Camaro, bitchin' Camaro
I don't want unleaded!

1984, The dead milkmen…..

Over the weekend we went to see Nina Conti , daughter of well known thesp Tom. For those that have not seen her she is a ventriloquist and part of her act is getting adults to wear masks and she then does the talking for them, like this below :-


Sally and I went with Sally`s daughter and her partner and despite sitting 7 rows from the front somehow at the end of the show the 4 of us were all on stage. Nina Conti was amazingly quick , not only working the masks but doing the whole conversation in different voices for the 4 of us . Well worth going to see her if you get a chance IMO.
Audience members sitting next to us recorded us on stage and Whatsapped us the videos. I`m happy to post them on here but I can`t figure out how to. If any of you know how please let me know how or alternatively DM me and I`ll send it on for posting.
