Don't worry - I agree, it is just something we forgot as it was very...very early in the morning!

I have not done the Walish update yet, but this gallery should give you an idea of where we are at:

http://www.walish.co.uk/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=27

we were nailed by the sun on Sat and did not stop work late into the night (again). Unusually for us, we slept until 11am the next day and did not really start to do work until 1pm. So we did not start on my car; however, I have a parts list I am doing my best to get together asap!

Looks good, Jon!

In one of the pictures where the engine had just come out of the Puma, the Fiesta looks eager to have it installed, with its bonnet opened.

Insurance is sorted (an extra £200), Vibra-Technics engine mounts arrived today.

Some more bits and bobs should arrive tomorrow with any luck - Friday at the latest - which should mean this weekend is the weekend! 8)
