Being non-sexual, Ole Yella gets both a Mother's Day and Father's Day present (Being non-sexual has it's advantages).

This Mother's Day, it got it's new 11mm Eagle Silicon Leads fitted (I've had them a while but had to hide them from it), a new module (turned out to be a loose wire between the coil and module and not the module...shhhh), matching Eagle Lead tidys (Yella of course) along the rockers (thought I should give the extractors something else to cook. Being all parallel to the extractors, should cook nice and evenly), and a new rocker cover gasket (will learn one day that you can't reuse the same gasket twice).

I think she's happy, 5,500 RPM every gear, although didn't get to try top gear :)

Oh, the other girl got two new pair of track pants and a myriad of things the kids made/bought for her at school.

Hope your guys all had a good Mother's Day.

Shoulda spent some quality time with the wife tonight, but was totally shagged after spending the day with the not-as unpredictable beast.

Yella takes phone off hook before Tinks rings the wife.

We took mum out for lunch. At 78, we don't know how much longer we are going to have her for, so we do what we can while she is still around.

Got bored at the mother-in-laws, so took the rear bumper off her car and straightened it out and knocked a few dents out while the wife spent some quality time with her. Did some wicked runs down the road in the billy cart, till the wheel fell off. The wife must love having four kids, three little ones, and one big one.

My Mummy has left me and gone for my Grandmother's 90th down in Mexico (Timboon).

well, as usual i saved it for the day before. but the boss decided i would work on saturday. this is fair enough, but i ended up starting 7am sat morning and finished quarter past one sunday morning....18 hour day. i ended up callinga mate and getting him to get me a pressie for her, she hinted roses chockies, scratchies, and a copy of stuart little. i got her a burnt copy of stuart little, ate most of the chochies and scratched all the scratchies and gave her the lot. she laughed a lot...was very funny.

^^^ Classic

Ruby took me (she is my baby!!!) on a super smooth Torrie club cruise. I took my Mum for the cruise, I think I only scared her once. I was pointing something out early on corkscrew rd and she said i wasn't allowed to look in the valleys, then told me if Ruby was left hand drive she would b on the back floor cause she sure as hell wasnt gunna look down.

We enjoyed a few drinks and lunch, it was a good day.

I now know where i get my bad navigation skills from.
