Put my near-side door mirror in the side compartment in the back after my mate knocked it off. It had been a bit wobbly, didn't think it would come off though. No damage to the mirror so I'm glad he knocked it off rather than it coming off whilst driving. My dad's welded some part of it on now though, so it's all good

I also opened the windows on the drive to KFC earlier, beautiful weather, made driving that bit more fun and I can't wait until summer now.

Blown head gasket on my MG Metro, so off with it's head!

Cleaned up the chambers with a wire brush on a drill, opened the exhaust ports out a bit, and tomorrow I'll grind the valve seats.

Then it's time my gasflowed carb and manifold go on!
