I will be checking all the earths, and other terminmals. Also it may be related to the Clifford alarm, as the alarm doesnt beep like it used to, it sounds all depressed and crap, so my suspision is the alarm/immobilisor is getting low voltage. I will be checking the voltage at the fuel pump sometime.
And also ill be removing the fusebox and inspecting and cleaning terminals, as i know its not A1.
i feel absolutely garbage today.
Just further reinforced why i dont bother with going round town anymore,big hangover,big I am doormen trying to be god and ridiculously priced drink and taxi's.
Bollox
Well this morning. I got up at 5.20 and got to work for 6am.
Did a 6 hour shift, as it's classed as contracted hours I have to do it, work or no work.
Today, i had no work. I expected this, so this morning while at work, i've steam cleaned my ovens grill (it needed it)
Took a pair of damaged Vectra C/Signum headlights. Replaced four of the six damaged fixing lugs. Read todays paper and a had a look through this weeks Autosport and this months Classic Car mags.
My plans for this afternoon are stumped due to the rain tho.
Oh well.

Will sleep tonight;)
Dont forget youre up early in the morning though lol
I got up at 6, went to work, did about an 1 of work then my neck decided to start playing up:( didnt think to much of it till it started to really hurt, so clocked out and got my brother to take me to the nearby hospital
by the time i got there the pain was unbearable and now I can hardly move my head, doctor has said its my main back neck muscle whichs runs half way down my back which is the problem and I have Torticollis or something like that, so lots of ibuprofen and paracetamol, no lifting or working on the nova:( just slight head movements
so been a great morning for melol
this is what i have
What is Acute Torticollis?
Torticollis comes from two Latin words: torti (twisted) and collis (neck). Acute torticollis is a condition sometimes called wry neck. It is a painful muscle spasm in the neck, similar to having a charlie horse in your leg. A person will often awaken with acute torticollis after spending the previous day outdoors in the wind or having slept with an open window that brought a cool draft into the bedroom. Acute torticollis is a temporary condition that normally takes approximately two weeks to resolve.
I've had that too, very painful, was told to keep turning my head against the pain and force it:eek: it hurt lotsQuote:
