damned, no parcel.. all day they tell me "the driver is on his way, if you haven't got a note in yer box, it means he hasn't come round to you yet.. he'll come".

And at 17h20 they change the story to "it's a new driver, he might be running late, if he has't come by 18h, he won't"

@#$@#$@

Evening gents.

After five children book stories Hannah is finally sleeping like a log. Time for wine.

next time, give her some of the wine first, then half a story book will suffice.

We had a delivery guy bring a package to the office. He noticed my crate engine sitting there and asked what project that was going into. I told him it was going in the Camino and that I was pulling to old engine this weekend. I invited him over to help and he said he had a thing to do with the thing at the thing about the thing to help the thing. I don't think he wanted to help with my thing.

Yea, see how ya are!

For the most part I don't want ANY help tomorrow. I will be in the process of cleaning and then the I want to take LOTSA pictures of everything in working order. Then I will document each step and take more pictures. If someone else takes it apart I will not know how to put it together.

I do have a buddy coming over Sunday afternoon to help with the actual pulling the engine out. That really need more than one person to avoid smacking things into fenders or the hood.
