[Vwdiesel] Happiest of the Holidays and a great New Year to all

[mark shepherd]

Season's greetings to everyone...

Just sat down after eating  our meal. Bird in bird in bird in bird. As I 
cooked; I'm the one who can put his feet up whilst the others clear up. My 
son ate gravy for the first official time.[Strange, as he had been eating 
some curry sauces these last few years]
Christmas steam pudding to come.
Perhaps later I'll do as I promised and make Bramley apple pie. Homemade 
short 'n' flakey pastry made with  blend of lard and butter. Maybe I still 
have some blackberries in one of the freezers...

Diesel content...
I wish I could stop the knocking of that old engine of mine. I've been 
thinking that I might create a sheet of metal to replace my overzealous head 
skim; rest it on top of the gasket, or even screw onto the head. Gopper or 
steel for resistance to burn around the valve edges perhaps. Sometimes I 
wish the engine would break down to give me an excuse  to take the head off. 
I'm tempted to take out that engine in the GTD.

Mark.
PS anyone got a Chevy Volt?
