First short drive of the year and the start of what appears to be either the alternator or water pump bearings failing :(

What a lovely New Year break that was. Really relaxed. Mini's in the garage. Got a Cooper head about to get reconditioned. Really don't mind going back to work today. Monday blues be damned!

Oh, work is rarely ever boring and hardly ever any time for browsing the web! And on lunch when I'm away from the pooter, I lose bloody 3G signal so browsing is dead slow. :( TMF only before and after work, really.

Have successfully changed the timing chain tensioner on the bini, lost the BMW screwdriver from the roadside kit in the engine bay somewhere. Great.

Mines a vRS which is very nice indeed. There are a fair few people on Briskoda that really like the mark 1 fabias. Standard ones are good for first cars
