Vertigo? Not a long lasting condition it is to be hoped? Rest easy that man there's another day tomorrow as they say.


That's something that bothers me about a lot of these resto' videos, the fantastic workshop facilities and endless supply of super tools which whilst useful tends to take a out lot of the make do and mend quality of a project.

I think that's why I lean towards the Pakistani guys who rebuild a Gardener diesel engine at the side of the road with nothing much more than a big spanner and a bag full of inspiration.

Yes I know it probably will last a lunchtime rather than a lifetime but much more pleasurable to watch than some bod in a workshop with better filtration than a micro chip fab' plant, the budget of a minor country and an array of tools that the likes of Snap On would die for, "refurbish" a tin-plate locomotive.

Oooh I sound harsh today, bad Fred bad Fred go to your bed!
