Spending the day in Lincoln Magistrates court. That bit I don't mind, it's the drive back in rush hour down the A46 I'm not looking forward to.

At University... handed in both my Assignments - a very satisfying feeling.

Issue now is that I have another one due in 2 weeks, then another 2 weeks after that and another 1 weeks after that.... ERGHH

Part time studying sucks when you are doing 5 modules in a year. Full time studying is 6 modules in 5 days

Today has mostly been spent working out how to get the cage through it's MOT without spending any more money on it...

One of the headlights was a milky colour and it failed on a that headlight, so I spent an hour this evening with a special polisher kit. My god, what a difference. I really wish I had taken before and after photos, still time for another attempt at the MOT tomorrow. 3rd time lucky..

That's a really good idea Jack. (y)
Actually D6Nutz, I didn't realise a faded headlight was an MOT fail. The O/S headlight on my little Vito is very visibly discoloured, a bit worrying that I may also be looking at an MOT fail for that.!

Good luck with the re-retest mate.
