    Exactly, thank you pred :)

    And I'll have you all know I'm happily "shacked up" as you so politely put it for the past five odd years!

    I'm up to my eyes in work, haven't had a week off for close to five months, and am wrecked.

    However, I have been posting regularly in this forum, even yesterday.

    Your (collective) powers of observation are failing.

    In car news, there is a scrape on my car, that I don't believe is caused by me :(

    Well in fairness I only get on in the mornings and by the time i get home I'm barely functioning so I probably haven't noticed!

    You wait till January when I'm in the US, the timezone difference in my postings will confuse you!

    That's if I don't freeze to death, where I am going is set to be minus 30 celsius :eek:

    Winnipeg is in Canada, be very careful not to refer to it as the US when you're there.
    They may not take kindly to it and they have guns. :p

    Ah it's just the Mounties who have them :D
    I've worked with piles of Canadians before, well aware of their dislike of being called Americans

    Yeah I've a friend from canada and she's insanely nice, like most canadians, but look at that mayor, buying up all the crack and shiiiii :pac:

    You can tell when canadians are fighting too

    "I'm not your friend buddy! I'm not your buddy guy! I'm not your guy friend!"

    And so on

    Rocker cover gasket is getting done tomorrow if weather holds. Pain of a job since it'll take me around 3 hours from previous experience!

    That's on the to do list for my carina too.
    Not looking forward to it if I' honest, it is a bit far passed the type of task I would normally attempt

    Right, this thread has prompted me onto micks garage.
    Filters + rocker cover gasket bought for under 40 euro.
    Might be able to attempt this next weekend!

    Got stopped by the Gards last night for driving in a bus lane.
    Pointed to the sign that said it was open after 19:00 - then to my watch.
    Was allowed on my way.

    Then found out today that the company I work for is winding up.

    This might sound like a silly question but.... Does my Honda Accord 2009 last shape have parking lights on the front? I see two bulbs one is headlight one is the dip beam. Only other one is indicator, is the parking light part of the indicator or something?
    Cheers
