Aye black & primer looks better, which is not saying much due to the awful blue & manky grey/white they use on the other.

Good Luck with it Will. Black might even make it look ok.

Had the car serviced yesterday. A Suzuki Swift sport/turbo.

Second service at 20,000kms   rotated the wheels and fucked up the pressures (I'm fussy !!!)  supposed to be 33 f 31 rear   I got 39.5 all round !!!!!!   
The bill for that lot $350.00   
Said they changed the brake fluid  ???  at 20,000 ?????

So basically an oil change and filter   !!!!!!

ps I was a mech in the mid sixtĂ­es, times have changed ?//

Col, no hoist now ive retired, makes life difficult. Have never paid for a car service in my life, that might change now, im not crawling around on the floor. At least old Boss wont charge much, shes pretty good with that stuff.

I've never had a hoist (looked at getting one though) so I just use ramps & get under it. Hoist would be better for sure.

Every two or three years regardless of mileage on any schedule I've bothered to read. Cause it's hygroscopic.

would love just a lift for the bikes. Cars I can still deal with, up on stands and a crawler dolly.
I try to take one day at a time, however sometimes several days catch up with me at once.

I bought another 36 "Double Flowering May" shrubs. They will get about 2m wide and 2m tall. Already put in about 50 "Red Robins" in front of the house, these will go behind it. Both were chosen as I know they grow well here.

I counted 350 trees and shrubs I'd put in but that was a while back, I'd guess I'm well over 400 by now.

Started planting more for the local Koalas too.

Local gym closed so bit the bullet and bought a functional trainer to stop the old chassis falling to bits (maybe) its great not to put up with the bullshit at the gym with some of these delicate Gen X legends
Horse,
Change is easy improvement somewhat more difficult :Dr Porsche
