That would explain why the springs broke, they couldn't flex, and the shitty ride.

Had an early shave.

I'm a seasonal beardy. Usually stop shaving when the clocks go back and shave the lot off when the clocks go forward and get my annual haircut. Couldn't be arsed any longer, so decided to lop it off early - the temperature will probably plummet now and my face will freeze off.

Had a 2010 Jeep in for service today and smoking when going up hill. I suspect the little furry bastards living in the air cleaner haven't helped.

I'm not shedding my winter plumage until April.

I trust it's simply that you have impeccable taste and not because you've lost your house.

I has working Fuel Gauge. These are a sought after thing in Pre-Farina Cambridge circles but I was fortunate to be offered a whole Instrument Cluster taken out of an A50 in the 60's and stored in an attic since. The Temperature Gauge on these cars is arse about face, the needle starts at H and works its way up to N.
