Doing the website and YouTube is tricky.

Plans never work which is why I rarely plan. It annoys me when you make plans and then none of them happen. So just don't plan. I had ideas of getting rid of 1 car and then getting a cheap project car. The opposite happened. I got a car back and bought the most...

Happy Christmas and New Year if you celebrate that sort of thing.

I started doing shit on YouTube 5 months ago, not just quick clips that aided the website. I actually talk in them! I have just got 2000 subscribers but I need you to subscribe as well. It's free. Click here and subscribe. We can take card payments again! FINALLY the...

It has been a while. Real life has got in the way

OTV from team evilution got married last weekend, the week before I had to buy a suit and all that sort of shit, so that was 2 weekends gone. The weather hasn't been great and I've been doing what I can with the new YouTube channel. Please do me a favour and go and...

I forgot to add a title. Not that it matters.

I spent 2 weekend ripping out my old office and setting up my new Mac, screens and desk. I can't believe how much shit I threw away. I'm being messed about by smart for headlights so I'm having issues completing my 1st YouTube project but luckily I'm quite a few...

You’re a YouTuber Harry

If I wasn't already spread thin, I'm making my life harder by doing YouTube videos as well. I'm recording a video each Saturday and Sunday and I'll release 1 every 2 or 3 weeks. That'll give me a bit of a video buffer in case I can't record for some reasons. Please...

Things are getting a bit better

One of the few things that gets to me is accounting. Just the thought of doing the accounts makes me feel depressed and I generally transcend the situation by ignoring them. Obviously that just makes it worse and worse. I finally understood what to do and how they...

Issues with recurring payments – please read

Due to a bug between a plug-in that we use and PayPal, we are seeing many recurring payments not being sent. The only option we have is to reset the account membership level back to "unpaid" and cancel the recurring payment through PayPal and hope that people...

Things going less wrong than before but still wrong

Update from the last news because I know that everyone reads this (lol). I had 2 MOT's in 1 day. Double squeaky bum hole time. The 453 EQ mentioned in the last news was one of them and they both passed with no issues. Even with the radar warning. Sweet. The 451 ED...

When nothing seems to go right

It has been one of those months where things don't go the way you want. It all takes too long and I quickly lose interest. I wasted an entire weekend chasing fast flashing indicators in the 453 EQ fortwo. The front indicators wouldn't work which eventually turned out...

I have been balls deep in a 453 EQ fortwo

Working on cars over December is what I normally do as I'm off work. However, there are issues of doing this. Firstly it's bloody cold in my workshop and electricity costs too much to waste heating the work space. We had snow on the ground for 5 days. Secondly, I'm...

Rumours of my death have been greatly exaggerated.

Good news, I'm still alive and now the building work is complete and a new kitchen has been fitted. Apart from some flooring and a bathroom suite, it's all done. I finally have room and can actually get to things in the workshop. Which is fortunate since my 451 ED...

No room, few updates

My house is still undergoing a small single storey rear extension. The build that should take about 5 weeks is now entering week 16. Cheap, Good, Fast, choose 2. I chose cheap and good so he's not fast. I bought all the things I needed to decorate and and fit out the...

I had a week off work!

Normally the girlfriend goes away on holiday and I stay behind and do stuff to the house. I'd previously ripped out the bathroom, moved a wall over and fitted a new bathroom suite. Then there was Covid for 2 years so no holidays. This year however she was off to...

Updating the news has taken a back seat…

...mainly because I've been busy with the site and I didn't know how to post a news update on this new system. If you are seeing this, it worked. I have been adding and adjusting pages of information as I went, especially if someone asked or requested the info. So,...

My back-end is being modified

Yep, still here. You may have noticed a slight change to the site. This started on the 25th of August. This is the 1st big change to the admin software in about 14 years so needless to say a lot of the pages of information aren't formatted correctly. When the site was...

Not have much time this weekend

Since the lockdown has been lightened slightly I had to go and see parents instead of playing in the garage. 450 polyurethane sway bar bush fitting. 453 wing mirror glass removal. 453 wing mirror cap removal. 451 bleeding the brakes. 453 reverse camera pin out. 453...
