Hi Sailor, the whole linkage broke I'm afraid. It's all been fixed now along with a host of other things that needed doing. I'll update my profile to share the work as soon as I've a few minutes.
The only thing I learnt from the drive back was that rainwater 'clears' from the screen at speeds above 110kph. Trouble was that the North / South highway was pretty jammed all the way back.

Anecdotally, if you cut a potato in half and wipe the cut face over the screen, the water glides off.

Old boys used to swear by it, but I never tried it.

It works well.

I checked four lines on lottery tickets today. 21 numbers in all and not one of them came up.
I can't be bothered to work out the odds, but it seems extraordinary.

whole lot got sold to toronto teachers retirement pension fund as a cash cow. they doubled the odds to something like 42 million to one at the same time as doubling the cost per play to £2. Dreams of the UK proletariat paying a comfy retirement for middleclass canadian teachers. Poetic

So today, so far, I have managed to find out that the £1 novelty knife sharpener I bought off wish doesnt work for some knives but works too well on certain large machetes I have.... No ground clearing blade has right to be so sharp... As my finger discovered. Three butterfly stitches and a big plaster later its time for a beer and an afternoon in the sun.

There was actual blood spray as it went through :lol: i'd only just changed the sheets..

I'd post pics but you dont want to see that.... :twisted:

oh, and I still can't post pics. :lol: :roll: :roll:
6th gen Prelude please Mr Honda. RWD 2.4 turbo lude.

Looks in exceptional condition.

Is that engine code right? Z1? That's totally random if it is - what were Honda thinking? :huh:
