Done a bit today, had a right laugh with the young 'un as well, we have had all sorts of tools out in the garage. Getting wet through and messing with air tools and spanners.

Little lad had to go for some injections today, I hate them, but he was really brave and did very well, so I thought we'd have some fun in the garage.

Here's a few pics of my day with him and the engine.

Enjoy...

Nex t have a look at this engine, it's in need of some old school blinging sessions...

Off we both go..

This is shot after the fun with the new pressure washer ensued, there was no way I was risking another digital camera, it'd be more than my lifes worth, I tell thee...

By this time we were both pee wet through

I took all teh stuff off, but in true Jay style, completley neglected to put down in writing how it all goes back...

I am hoping a fresh cup of coffee will get the mind going again...

I was getting a headache by this point. I wanted a fag break so I called in my new YTS mechanic....

Unfortunately I can't get him to make me coffee yet as the wife says he'll burn himself, bloody 5 year olds. I was working down the pit at his age!

...and it didn't take hm long to start working on the wrong end of the engine either....

I turned my back and he tried to swap the block for a VTEC one, so I sent him for some tartan paint, along with some sky hooks, a left handed screwdriver after taking a long stand over to the house.

I'll have to train him with that kettle.

We both had to nip out for some refreshments, so rather than having to put everything away and clean up.

I installed a new device called a Rottiealarm.

He even tries to blend in with the background, in fact he don't look too big here, but I can assure you he's knocking on 9st and has a bit of a bite on him... big grin Shocked
