 Re: What did you do with your A Series today? Give him a chance to get back! It must take all of 20 minutes to drive all the way around Unst.

Re: What did you do with your A Series today? Greased the Dyane's kingpins, in the first bit of car maintenance I've ever done ever!

Re: What did you do with your A Series today? Fitted a new 2cv boot and dug the filler out of the bonnet hinge to see what lurks beneath. Then ordered a bonnet hinge repair panel, as it's worse than I feared

Re: What did you do with your A Series today? Put the normal exhaust on it, mused over the cracked wheel but did nothing about it, took the towbar off, cleared the blocked jet.

Re: What did you do with your A Series today? Fitted a replacement crossbox, but had a right dickens of a job to get the pipes all married up. Consequently, it's blowing at the joints, so the car sounds like a Spitfire, or at the very least a noisy motorbike. I love it, although it frightens horses and people tend to stare a bit. Will have to sort it out... maybe at the weekend.

Re: What did you do with your A Series today? technically speaking, it wasn't today, but I recently moved home - and Hugo did the honours: the biggest thing that I own is the sofa, which fitted quite nicely in the back of the van:  the heaviest thing that I own is my CD collection - around 1000 CDs plus a bit of vinyl (and then some cassettes) and the associated racks... which all went in one go:   He also moved the entire contents of the garage, including an engine &gearbox combo and several sets of metal shelving, not to mention a couple of dozen spare wheels (Fiat/Citroën, since scrapped) - a real workhorse
