Jeff, how do you manage to keep two Nova's on the street looking so clean?
Suprised there still there tbh, wouldn't last long round here lol

More nova related happines for me today, managed to get it to jetwash and gave it a rinse down as its not been cleaned in over a week now :cry:
But after a quick splash over its still got a good layer of AG left as it was beading nicely afterwards, then when i got home i got the split seat bracket that Benn sent me fitted and removed my temporary bodge fix, and also tidied out my boot as it was full of crap and my fifth speedline was wedging the boot lid and making it hard to open as i got a tyre put on it at the weekend!
Steely removed from wheel-well and speedline put in its place, boot rearranged and clips put back on the boot carpet to back panel, and emptied a few months of crap out of my glove box as i was fed up with it rattling while im on the way to work lol
Now sat in the warm and having a cup of tea:thumb:
I managed to get the nova back in the workshop so i can start work on it again!
Happy after beating the top of the league pool team last night we have beat them twice this season once in our pub (when they said our pool tables rubbish) and can't wait to play us on there table and we beat them on there table last night there table was ok lol
Just got a Sony Experia Z phone, sooo much better than my S2, also got £122 back for the old phone with o2 recycle
Having as massive garage clear up and chucking a load of mk2 nova bits in the bin made also me happy lol
the sign that said 'you are leaving skegness'

Chrome it Jeff.

I just found an envelope in my tech draw with £200 notes it in.... WIN
Went with the wife to see the midwife and got to listen to the baby's heartbeat
got a job with a car magazine
Work have given me a job that I've already done. So I can leave my trackerd van parked there and walk over the road to the witherspoons for an hour :)
highlight of my day was drinking a glass of water. I lead a sad and miserable life
Nice :thumb:Quote:

as an example, on a turnover of £2800per week, with a fuel cost of £1200 per week, it was making £100 profit... when a tyre goes, it wipes out the profit for the month! from an investment of £100k for a wagon, £3000 a year profit is crap..
£140k turnover.... tax man takes about £80k.. then there is wages, finance, insurance(whiplash claims are hitting hgv insurance v hard...) etc...
i didn't take much convincing to park it up..
oh, and i get to sleep till 6:30am & actually get home to see my family
I have a big smile on my face:d
But I can't let the cat out of the bag just yet;)
Watch this space ............... you'll have to waitlol
I got an easter egg from work lol
Are you sure you have got that right? it doesnt add up.Quote:
