Default Any one else having a bad week?

This week i have managed too.

Drop a 4.1 diff in my thumb (squished hurt like **** and blead abit)

Some how drop and loose 350 quid

Whilst swinging on a scaffie tube (snap on wrench) trying to undo a bottom pully bolt The ratchet gave way and the scaffie bar lamped me on the forehead, Lots off blood golf ball bump on head.

Then whilst trying to lock unit up so i could go home n get looked after reversed my car into an old scraper. (was a bit dizzy lol)

Spent 200 quid on rebuilding an engine to find out the block had cracked!!!!!

All these things are down to my own stupidity, But serousley contemplating not leaving house this week!

can any one beat that lol

Then decided to rebuild a good Block useing all the parts i have off the one with the crack in. Stripped it down ( on my new work bench) did it with no hassle. Then re oned my old block and put it all back together.

To look at it when id finished (celebratrory cid and cup off tea) to notice that one off the pistons is round wrong way!!!!!!!!!!!

Guess what im doing tommorow stripping it all back down again to rebuild it!
