YAY! I finally managed to do one of these before a weekend for a change... it has been a troublesome start to the year! :/ For me it is more garage work, a bit of show organising (Gathering, Summer Holiday and Retro Kings all need some attention). Then I'll be planning my year of events attendance Most importantly I'm going to be working out the logistics for PICKING UP MY CAR!!!!!!! ... One day one of my weekend updates will involve doing something with my old car and not an electronical thing, that day is coming soon. So what are you up to in car world?

I'll be nabbing bits off a 9-3 in a scrapyard and making sure the MG still runs so as I can possibly drive it to the MG and Triumph spares day on sunday I've also got a long list of stuff to do on the Saab but thats strictly weather permitting!

Looks like this weekend the Reliant Robin is going on to pastures new, and then I can drive my dark blue panda into storage. The rest of the weekend is probably going to be doing bits on my Mams E36 Bimmer

Possibly off to Wetherby for a show on Saturday in Mike's GT6 (if it's behaving). Hoping to also get engine and gearbox out of the 6 so we can get the engine more thoroughly investigated, didn't quite get that far during the week.

Weather dependant I may weld up some holes in the Cortina. Although really I need to service the daily.

The E30's in the paintshop so it will miss the first East Coast Retro meet on Sunday, but I won't. It's either my mate's Aussie spec VW camper (yes, it's got roo bars!) if it's running or, horror of horrors, a modern.

I'll be setting my ratchet to "tighten" and re-assembling my freshly painted Patrol! It'll probably involve a lot of tea-drinking while I try to remember where everything went. I'll also be planning the next stage in the project for when it's all back together (so I can start taking it apart again...)

If the weather is up to it then I shall be stripping down the N/S/F door on the E36 to find out why the lock seems to be jammed. If the weather is poor then I'll be continuing with my ongoing magazine/brochure sorting and filing project. This generally involves making plans to sort several thousand of 'em into some kind of logical order, but usually ends at the first interesting one I pull off the first pile and I spend the rest of the day reading through them instead.
