Used it for work again, but it cut out on the way home. It would just about idle but died with any throttle, turned out one of the electric fuel pumps wasn't working. Think it must have been a bad connection as it worked again after a little fiddling.

Took it out of a crappy old garage and then drove it back into a totally renovated workshop. :D

Spent two days making up my new benches, side shelving and tidying everything up. Now I can start work on the Fourgonnette without falling over everywhere. I even got my new welder and had a go - chuffed to bits :P

Being depressed about not making firkin freezing, i attacked mines with a poly pad in an angle grinder. I now have much less rust, but mainly because i have much less metal than i used to.

Also discovered that the o/s/f corner of the van body is almost entirely filler... :roll:

Finished work early so took youngest one for juice and coffee in favourite bar. On way home passing lorry turbo pipe blew off so went from around 46bhp to 29bhp in a blink of an eye. The word F--K came to mind. Luckily had enough momentum to pass him. Quick fix - just jubilee clip split.

Pottered about with the dog in the back. Everything seems to be working fine at the moment. 8-)
