I would just like to say

[Brown]

I've just replaced my rear shock absorbers and, while the wheels were off, gave it a clean underneath. The upper shrouds on the old ones fell to pieces in my hands as I was getting them off:

I was aware they were getting a bit crispy, but that last bit of rust has progressed very quickly.

here's the new ones in place:

Not too difficult a job. The nuts were rusted in place but were no match for the mighty Milwaukee impact wrench. Just after that picture was taken I gave the underside a brisk hose down with the pressure washer and got a lot of that grey road film off.
I think that's everything it needs for the MOT now. Sooner or later I'll re-touch the Dinitrol on the chassis where the rust is starting to reappear, but that is something I'll do at my leisure as it's not too bad just yet.

Damn right.
Going to ask for a chat at work tomorrow to see why, given cost of living increases and inflation increases, why my salary has increased a whopping 3.5%

No different to having to wait ferra diesel pump. Then queue inside to pay. I have an extension cable but that will limit the charge as it dunt have the fast charge pins. Paying by credit card on me app.

No onehas to wait as long for a diesel pump, and you don't have to pay in advance nor risk overpaying with no chance of getting it back!
