Okay,. so today I start to repare the Land Rover. Hmm........Looking forward to that then, not...............Fitting important jobs into days off is tricky, particularly when the day off is when your parts supplier is shut. Still, wish me luck, please. Need Landy to pull the trailer that carris the ride on mower that cuts the grass for the customer who lives in the house ...............THAT JACK BUILT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Laughing

Just repaired the handbrake...It works again for the first time in two years!! Laughing

The clutch is still quite weak but at least now I'm ready to pick up the caravan from Ali this weekend and drag it back up here so I can work on it through the winter.

It will also be a bolt hole for me when I need my own space
