#2239 Thursday 23rd November

Success at last!  I have defeated the beast.  This means that I have finally been able to get that darn thread started.... and so been able to complete the job.  The professionals would charge $600 for the remove/replace task.  I almost think it would have been worthwhile!  Its been physically hard work..... repeatedly getting down under the vehicle, then back on top again.  Leaning over the engine bay stretches the tendons in the back of my legs.....  I'm quite exhausted by the whole job.
The fires are bad at the moment.  I'm reminded of the days 1980 to 1988 when I was active in the fire brigade while living in Northcliffe. I had a couple years as the Fire Control Officer.  It was always very satisfying to go home after the fire was under control.... knowing that you had contributed to the good outcome.  It was the same with ambulance service.....  I had 15 years of that.
