The mental gymnastics a landlord will employ to justify immoral actions is clinically fascinating. Just because something is legal doesn't make it moral.

If you're bored get the paintbrush out Pat. That bottom pulley's a bit rusty





yours, Pete

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Pat, did you use the original tube when you moved the oil filler to the rear of the rocker cover, or, (more likely) source a longer piece of tubing of same dia?
If so, what did you use?
I was thinking, perhaps, of trying to find a bit of exhaust pipe of same dia (36mm).
Why's the engine out of the car?
If you're changing for a different powerplant you could sell me your modded rocker cover!

Andy.

Engine having an overhall and repaint.
Oil filler neck athe original one welded in to a piece of scaff bar!
Brace bit is a bit of a partial cover for the timing belt to keep it in place nad stop the top hose hitting it.
