Cheers jack, my disco decided to snap the rocker shaft and pulled a stud out of the head on the way up to Telford. Then the heater and wipers packed up so I've spent most of the week sorting it out. A garage did a repair on the head but it still needs sorting properly and it still has to get...

Im suprised there wasnt more snow around. I would have tried to come along if my disco wasnt playing up!:rolleyes:
