Then we went to Craig Allardyce’s palace for a catch up and borrowed his hoist to drop the running in oil and did a brake adjustment
This was in Foster - pretty cool

Quiet day today, did a bit on the ute - think we have sorted the rattle in the ute , the bolt holding the tacho down was just touching the speaker, so we moved it back 10 mm , will find out tomorrow if it was a success
Found this cool old place while touring around Sale
Then out to Maffra but both the museum and the brewery was shut today bugger it
