The hunt for the 10mm continues admin, March 7, 2026March 7, 2026 Typical. “Someone” claims to have dropped a 10mm socket “in the engine bay” and this is the result of the hunt for that damn elusive socket!

Ah we should have paid more attention in school….. May 9, 2025May 9, 2025 In not surprising news, we learned last night that we should have paid more attention in school. Damien, for some ungodly reason, decided to “check the tracking”. That resulted in Daniel measuring things, muttering numbers and doing maths on the back of a page of pacenotes. We heard the mutter… Read More
