It was yesterday, but still buzzing today.
Bought a ton of XC parts off a lady who's husband passed away.
He had boxes and boxes of smalls, lots of NOS, in a sea container.
She had a nice round number for the lot, just wanted it all gone.
Yesterday was like Christmas, finding all these treasures wrapped up.
I can't believe I got to it first, she reckoned her messages were going crazy.

Well i didnt get any no reason cancellation from the ex wife today, so i spent a fair chunk of today with my son. He has a shift today so thats acceptable. He did say he can call in sick to spend extra time, however that was a no from me because work ethic, sick days are for when you are actually sick.
Anyhows, we did some stuff but i upheld my word and yes he could have whatever he wanted for lunch provided he cooked it (he works at maccas, but thats not cooking, he isn't allowed to cook at his home for some reason). So i taught the way i like to teach. But same reaction i often get the first time with a new apprentice. Step one, get a pot, then a look..... an extended look, then i says 'well get a pot'. Step 2, fill it with water..... same look, then he got it. I find the best way to teach is not by showing how to do it, but explaining how so they do it. Not in this case, but yes sometimes you may have to step in, but you dont take over or do the 'give it here'.
Anyhows, the one aspect that he made today he had never had and reckons goes good. This applys to burgurs, hotdogs, pretty much anything between bread, turn it into garlic bread and lightly toast it before assembly.

Yesterday, actually. Getting an ‘82 Mini running nicely after carb refresh and new ignition components.
