The gearbox came apart easily and is not as bad as it first looked
It has had the loose tail-shaft bolts drama, nice brazing repair

Then I brought the Bedford engine in
Undid the 4 bolts holding the head on
cylinders heavily coated in grease
Started sorting valves, springs, retainers colletts and bolts
Something was not adding up for the bolts
After a bit, I realised this head is a Chevy, I mean, how come it was on this engine?
Ah well, Might need a spare head some day
During the night I seem to recollect a oily head in a hessian bag, I wonder?
It is probably lost in the shed


A minus 10 black frost here a few weeks ago has killed most plants, the mandarins all fell off, the lemon tree lost most of its leaves. And the worms in the worm farm have vanished

Can't stand the dry heat, but glad I don't live where it snows

I must get back to fixing mowers, cleaning up and other priories rod
