Jeez Lenny. Kudos to you for driving that much to pick up all these parts. Btw, how do you find the time to do all this? I wish I had your enthusiasm. Maybe Vicki knows your secret to such energy :P

Monster Energy, the green one lol

Vicki says she recycled 162 empty cans of the stuff there last week, that was two months collection.

Secondly the money:

Next weeks parts total to 200euro and including diesel and food say 300 euro.

Then resale value of the existing headlights, glovebox and rear bumper i should make back around 150 euro.

Only investment is time.

I work 6 days a week on one of 3 different eight hour shifts mate, the focus is diesel drive anywhere in Ireland and back on a full tank of fuel and within a day and focus is as good as a van with the back seat fold down and a huge bag from work to keep it clean in the event the purchased parts were a bit dirty,

The enthusiasm?

Man all I've done in my spare time the last three years is modify cars highly addictive, vicki got me a smart phone for Christmas which has worked out ideal tool in this project because i can search adverts.ie donedeal.ie and ebay.co.uk during my lunch breaks at work even during night shifts,

Theres been nights where ive finished work at 3am to drive some place for 9am to pick up some parts.

The interior for example. Left work at 3am and drove to killbeggan for 9am

I got there at 05:40 and went to a fuel station,

The guy was behind glass, so had to ask for the items i wanted to purchase:

I said " good morning, can i have: a tea with 3 sugars, a snickers, 2 cans of redbull ow and 20 euro diesel"

He then asked " are you going to drink the diesel aswell?"

:lol:

I hadn't parked at the pumps and considering the sugar content of my request he assumed i was drinking fuel too :lol::rolleyes:

Anyways,

I then had 3 hours sleep in the back of the focus prior to meeting Alan was the guy at the time,

Full Levin bzr interior 100 euro.

Well worth every cent considering the condition of the one that was in the Levin i purchased since then.

So is the young one that makes the rolls;) boom chica wa wa :p

Spicy chicken roll and 4 pack of monster the fuel of champions ;)

I went up to bed last friday week and she had the ladder erected next to the bed...

I thought :o eff dis im sleepin in the box room :lol:

Then i remembered the windscreen wasnt under the bed anymore :huh: so its only my back at risk,

But was all speculation in my mind in the end :rolleyes:

The ladder is one of those 3 way multi position ones that can be used as scaffolding etc.

Got the idea id put it in scaffold mode get her up on the second step me being 6ft 2 and all,

Bend er over the ladder, she can hold on to the horizontal 8th Step and ill shush her up in to the attic :blink:

After i have me chicken roll and can of monster of course :p :lol:

But hasn't happend yet :mellow:
