What did you do today?

Health freaks don't live longer, it just seems longer.

I still have that pressure cooker, that I inherited from my gran and grandad in 1990ish.

My mum also used to have a pressure cooker like that, mainly used for doing steamed puddings, I think the seals went on it in the end and she discovered that you can make steamed puddings in the microwave!

It wasn't actually the pressure cooker that I remember, it was the oven!

Heard a good saying today

Done is better than perfect

I might get that made up as a sign and put it on my garage wall.

Bought this to go up on my garage wall to remind me of this.

I've left it to Mrs SiC to paint it/do something arty. I said just paint it white, but apparently that's boring

I like the one the guy building a try stroke engine on YouTube has
Easy isn't worth anything

Not strictly "today", but over the last 7 weeks or so I've turned my Disco 2 chassis from this...

And that's just the chassis. It also needed the nearside front inner wing & both rear sills fettling, I didn't take many pics of those repairs though. Here's the front inner wing after I'd chopped out the rot though...

And as a bonus, a couple of pics of the new shock top mount fabrication, before & after the origami

So yeah, a shitload of work. Tonight I was building the back end back up, and the needy bitch has now decided it wants a new nearside ARB drop link as well. Fuck my life, lol.

Oh yeah, the Calibra's back on the road now as well

[DodgeRover]

Wow, I thought you had done that weldathon once already on the rear chassis, I must be getting confused in my old age!
