Good! Thought for one moment there you needed Kilroy's unpatented starter relay modification!

Yep never guessed the jump leads wouldn't be able to flow enough current for a 1.3 marina, I had just assisted in starting a friend's diesel merc. I guess boosting electrical power is one thing and turning over an engine entirely on the leads is another different matter :think:

Cleared out the back of the 7cwt Tardis yesterday to fit a rubber mat that I had acquired.

Went Yesterday and fetched a Truckman top for my pick up. On the way back stopped at Gaydon, had a very nice afternoon looking round. Found the BL prototype stuff very interesting and had a good look at the pizza delivery van first time I have ever actually seen it. In the new building you can look down on the workshop some very interesting old rebuilds going on including what looked like a 1920's chassis sporting a straight eight with inboard finned front drums and front wheel drive, not got a clue what it was.

There a distinct possibility looking at the technical drawings. There was nothing by of an explanation, as it was on ramp being worked on were able to look down on it.
