We might have been mildly distracted last week by a new arrival - we lucked into a solid 2 door Mk1 Escort shell - so we were very, very excited. No money was spent - we swapped it for our rotten R...

Those of you who watched the draft last week will hopefully notice the changes and indeed we took on board your feedback and made some amendments.
