Do you really think I'd be paying someone to do it if it was a case of unscrewing the ones I've already got fitted and screwing them ones in?

I'm having doorbuilds and A-Pillar builds, which you could have willingy done for free if your fibreglassing and trimming skills are as good as the people doing it

Also having new cable run from the amp behind the rear seats back down the car and into the doors and pillars.

Flipping hell

I swear a lightning bolt just struck near our house! I saw a massive spark and the TV went strange for a moment. At least I'm not dead, but I had the poop scared out of me

*EDIT* My brother kindly pointed out that it could've hit the patio heater outside, right in the field of my direction. It's mostly metal, so it's essentially a lightning rod.

Strange weather, I'm tempted to go to the 'rents villa in Menorca; it's always sunny over there

Your not wrong there, i think these past few weeks is the first time ive actually been able to see where it is raining and where its not, literally drove under a rain cloud the other day. could see the rain, under a big grey could, when i was dry under blue sky! went under the rain and came out the other side back to blue sky again....so bizarre

i wish it'd stop being so gloomy and wet! its my 18th this weekend so i want the sun to be out!!!!!!!!

yeah its so irratating! bloody global warming! (there i was hoping global warming might do us a favour and make the weather nicer. jk dnt start) Just so depressing - wonder how long it will be before english cars have to have permanent on headlights
