MOTd and more Ebay Tat!

Well I've been busy ducking in and out the shed- it now has an MOT  all though the work does not stop there!
The 100 mile round trip to TIPTON GARAGE threw up a few issues which I am sorting out now- I will post later on those with some pictures and words etc
The most pleasing outcome from its day out at Tipton was the rolling road tune got 72 BHP and just shy of 90 ft/lb torque out of the original lump (one that had sat 13 years in a shed before I rescued it last year) so I was well chuffed -boosted my confidence that its not that knackered and I can eek another 2,000 miles out of it!

On the fundraising front things have been going well and as the post title suggests I have some more TAT on eBay see link below

The old lump runs!

Its been a period of "stealth shedding" ducking in and out the shed for the odd half hour hour etc getting jobs done in between childcare, house bashing and other family commitments -but I had a good run on the car today  (thanks Charlotte)-see the above clip created by shed camera man Oscar aged 7 and a bit
Also in  Shed news is that Olivia's (Creative director now aged 5 ) T shirts turned up- these are a bit of fun to raise some money for the Round Britain Run charity - Children with cancer

Just in case you didn't see the links in the last post here they are again!
