Welcome to my world!! Charlie has buggered off with his mates and will only reappear if he gets hungry, so can't actually go anywhere. House is immaculate, car has been washed already this week, and I can't think of anything to do either!

I have the odd weekend like this when Moira is working. If you are in to sport then it isn't so bad. However if not then you are stuck with gardening and house work or a good book or cleaning the car.

I'm off to get the new Brothers in Arms game for the XBox 360. Then off to Bicester to visit our daughter and a B Register Committee meeting tomorrow.

All right for some... I'm still doing SmS stuff for today, sorting out my laptop as it's running rather slow at the moment, got two PCs to repair for a couple of my 'on the side' customers and going to a 'Members only' airshow tomorrow. So I haven't got room to breathe this weekend... but I need to clean Smudge this afternoon too as we're taking the folks with us tomorrow and it needs hoovering out!!!!

Blimey.... I've spent all of today (09:00 to 16:30) in a hotel conference room in Reading, for the MGCC Membership Forum!!!! Three Directors and the southern CRB's Council Reps all discussing MGCC membership, how we can increase it, what we can do to improve the club, etc. all ready for a paper to be presented to Council and the AGM in 2 weeks time!

I have such exciting weekends!!!! Laughing

Tomorrow I was supposed to be going to Castle Combe for a meeting with the chairman of the U17CC, but I've had to cancel as at the last minute Kathryn's car is being used on Tuesday by a magazine doing a comparison with a similar age and equally totally standard MX5. So, she's coming over to me for the day tomorrow so I can sort out all the little problems and give it a full valet so that it is looking good and in perfect working order so it comes out better in the review! I've got rattles to fix, my wheels/tyres to go on, as hers a knackered. The O/S/R track arm is bent and needs replacing. The airbox has come loose. Bushes are worn. Slight noise from N/S/F/ wheel bearing. And the list goes on, but it will all be based on what I can get done in the one day!

i'm not sure yours going to get all that done........

now if you had tyres for the new alloys Kathryn could keep the others Shocked

You're right, I don't think I will get it all done either, but I will do my very best. I've told her to be round here for 10:00 and it will be a good full day! I might be canabalising my car for parts to get hers sorted!!! And I'll then go to the scrappy on Monday to get replacement bits!

As for her keeping my wheels, I've suggested she keep the wheels with tyres in exchange for her selling her old wheels and using that money along with a top up to pay for 4 new tyres for my car! She's considering it! Otherwise, I will be swapping them back Tuesday evening! Laughing

**Dark Knight** 28/9/2008, 7:11 am

so your using yours for all the spares!!! you'll be stuck if she drives off and with your wheels then with your car in peices Laughing

Wouldnt it be easier to find another standard F in good condition withing the club.......

"scrolls through member list"

erm ok choice is limited!!!! Sad

No stripes, spoilers, induction kits, carbon dash, big wheels, clear indicators, etc.....

Pretty hard to do isn't it! Only thing really noticable on Kathryn's car is that it has a momo gear knob, so I will put on my old original black leather one.

I've told her to tell them sorry about the wheels, but they are VVC wheels and hers is an MPi. They should be ok with that! Mind you, I don't really want to remove my X-Power stickers from my wheels, unless she is going to keep them and buy me new tyres!

**Dark Knight** 28/9/2008, 7:27 am

well if you need an extra pair of hands tomorrow give us a shout!!

Guest 28/9/2008, 7:45 am

Cheers for that. The kind of things that need doing though can only really be done one at a time, so will just have to work through them whilst Kathryn makes me cups of tea!!!

Actually, that's got me thinking, I could get her to make me a chilli!!!!!! Laughing

Well I've spent the day rebuilding a Mac, installing another one, writing some stuff for the Zed Register web pages (work in progress), cooking (my wife has gone to Essex with the kids), washing clothes (kids!), mending the back gate (kids again!!). Oh, hum Cool

A shame none of us were around to go for an improptu pub meet by a river/canal! I would much rather have been outside enjoying things than locked in a hotel conference room!
