    Yep, it’s pretty awful. I guess if she’d worn a leather dress no one would have battered an eyelid, so it’s kind of an extreme extension of that. And yes, Lady Ga Ga is one of these new fangled pop stars. I believe she has made several pop records which have done quite well in the pop charts.

    I also believe some of her 45 rpm pop single records have what is commonly known as “a good beat” :thumbsup:

    Are you there during the day too? I sometimes go running at Ogden Water and could pop in and say hello

    While I continue the rust cull from the underside, mick starts chopping out the sill.

    Inner sill middle is very solid... the ends, less so.

    No pics of rust removal today as I’m just trying to work systematically front to back, and seem to spend more time choosing the right size abrasive attachment for the job! I took my angle grinder today because it’s smaller and lighter, thus getting into smaller areas and not crying from arm hurt!

    had a check all around the back bits I haven’t got to yet (there are many) and all seems ok. I was worried about battery trays but thankfully they’re solid- phew.

    Am grubby, supposed to be at a beer festival but need a shower and some time to stop vibrating! :D

    Pass me the wine. And a long straw!

  20. Good for you :thumbsup:

    You`ll be aching all over but looking on the bright side at least you`ve got the lift . Without that you`d be flat on your back ,wriggling around trying to find a good angle to attack things and absolutely COVERED in crap !!

    I ached for months but it was worth it ...

    :hattip:
