Changed the other door seal, washed it, leathered it all dry, started to tcut and the heavens opened. Looks like it will be a non polished mini at Gaydon tomorrow. Now off to do a 12 hour shift at work. Oh the joys.

spent 1/2 hour wondering why the mini started to mis-fire when i started it up earlier....took the plugs out, cleaned them, put them back in......twice.............then discovered that it was running out of fuel............. :withstupid:
