thousands of stupid questions in the near future :roll:

so you work on a farm then, or farm related if your borrowing a barn, i used to live on one, bloody cold when i was messing with my motors in winter.

its not really a barn in the farm sense, more of a great big shed.
but yes it is cold at the moment :cry:
still weve got a couple of space heaters so it shouldnt be too bad.
no doubt ill end up doing it in the yard with some sort of tarp-assisted shelter :shock:

wel im building mine on my drive, and built al my other minis on my drive, so its do-able. :)

[Picadilly]

im on the drive too, its cold and has slowed the project down soo much reckon if i had a garage id be done now but hey, thems the dice :)

hey guys i thought i was hard, i'm living on a building site with a bog a bed and a heater, i reel out the power lead to the garage every day to bash the mini, your working on the drive in this bleedin weather, you must have a bigger pair than me, overcoats that is.

i wear a t-shirt, jumper, hoody, and jacket. and pretty much wear my welding cloves constantly. :lol: but i dont know any beter, so its just what im used too...

when i got my first mini, i had to change the rear subby for teh MOT. in teh snow. so i county myself lucky its as dry and warm as it is lol

lol, you guys are complaining about the cold - and i have the opposite problem, my minis on its side with the hot water boiler a few feet away, it can get quite sweaty down there!

i've worked on a farm, worked outside, worked for the national grid, i'm used to being frozed, i'm not complaining bout the cold, although my current place of work manages to find me loads of breakdowns outside in winter, and inside in summer.
