Great cars those, I know if one with 800,000 on it. Original engine, other than one head gasket. It's a taxi so the engine never gets cold
OMG U OK HUN?

Re: Eddie Honda's 96 Citroen Synergie VSX 1.9TD 7 seater.
Managed to flog some stuff on Gumtree and now getting ready for boat run one.
Gaffer tape - check
Damp proof membrane - check
Screwfix gaffer tape - check
One half of a 6ft wide divan base.
+40cm to height. Fuck it lets shove the other half up there. (+80cm, checks ticket, no issue on height being 2.6m)
Wrapped over, taped up rear (the tape is a bit shit btw 3/10)
Hmm, think I'm going to rotate this so I can tape up the front end...

Oh and the V5C arrived in the post this morning. DVLA 11/10 would use again.

Re: Eddie Honda's 96 Citroen Synergie VSX 1.9TD 7 seater.
Last Saturday...
After getting the divan bases all buttoned up I headed round to ASDA for some oil.
Looked at the problem (location of filler cap meaning you have no hope of pouring oil straight from the can) and went back into the shop for reinforcements.
Headed for the boat. Hassle free.
Time for a late dinner.
Made it into Belfast without sinkage - Sunday morning.
Took the long way home to avoid tolls and got home at 4.30am to this on the wall next to my bed.
Some kip later and then got a lift back to Dublin Airport to pick up the bike before going back into work.

Re: Eddie Honda's 96 Citroen Synergie VSX 1.9TD 7 seater.
First thing this afternoon was to find out which car my spare toll tag is in. Went on the internet and checked the account. Tag was assigned to my black Volvo 343 and indeed it was, in its holder above the mirror. Change registration and clean a tiny bit of glass to make sure it stays stuck.
Then proceeded round the local motor factors. Yesterday I tried to get a rear plate, but I was thwarted. Not by availability or stupid UK supplier rules, but a lack of toner in their printer. No big deal, they just got one whizzed up first thing from their other branch.
Then another few yards up the road and fill up with some €1.36/litre diesel and get some more B&H
Then off to do some work.

1930h tonight, old single beds from upstairs still in the motor.
A work mate also popped in to lend me this useful implement.
Just need to finish the shift and head up to Belfast to catch the 0730 boat.
