May that take as long as it needs to give the west a good soaking of rain.

Yes rain is good. Also if anyone wants the easiest way to put on in let me know. (if you are replacing the stock horn)

Got back yesterday from the Rylstone run. No signs of carb icing with my now` water heated' Redline Weber manifold. A couple of other cars on the run did, however.

I went to drive it this morning.

Key in, starter button pressed.

Nothing. Not even the ignition light was on...

The GPS had fallen off the windscreen.

The headlight switch was on.

GPS switched on the headlights sometime in the last week :lol:

Supercheap jumpstart pack had no charge.

Spare battery had no charge.

Take the other car then!
