Today has been a good day . . .
« on: August 02, 2006, 21:33:40 »
1. Got my laptop back after being repaired by Fujitsu (at no cost, even though I left it by an open window on the day of the Great Billing storm and it got very wet)

2. I rebuilt my calipers with new seals and pistons (thanks to Timmay for bringing them to Wales).  Only trashed one seal during the replacement process, so glad Tim brought an extra bag of seals  :wink:

3. Bought myself a Warn XP for what I think was quite a good price

So, all in all, happy me  :)

It looks much better without it poking out underneath for all to see!

Everyone at Wales saw for themselves when Simon drove in, and withnessed the transplant, for a better version.  Much neater now.  :wink:
