Love these programmes. The better halfs has been going nuts over the last few weeks as I have recorded and watched every episode on! Just wish I was as good as Edd Chyna - makes things look so unbelievably easy. Soooo Armed with my trusty Halfords Socket set I went to work on the transport over the weekend.
1. Refit my wife's cars Heat shield that had worked loose. Snapped every f**** rusty bolt that held it on, then had to drill out every hole before refitting :evil:
2. Lift my daughters saddle on her wee bike. Saddle was still loose and eventually over torqued the bolt shearing it too. New nut/bolt required :roll:
3. Stripped down my rear caliper that was binding. Pads fused to the disk (both only a year old) and eventually when I got the caliper clear of the disc the pads crumbled in my hand. A new Caliper needed me thinks or it will cost a fortune in new pads every year :x
4. Went for the KISS acronym. My Cube hardtail recieved a new cassette and chain after issues since I bought it. Lubed the chain took it out in front of the house to lube the cassette, powered down and SNAP went the chain and a big off the bike went me taking loads of skin off the palm of my hand, finger and a big bruise at the back of my knee let alone a dent to my pride having an off outside my fromt window. Gave up -threw everything in the shed and spent the rest of the night licking my wounds and getting drunk :lol:

Chyna has a lot to answer for :lol: :oops:
