Fiddle-arse, gonna have to get up early tomorrow and get the train to work. Someone at work asked today 'How's the Jag?' (my daily driver), to which I replied 'Yeah good, it hasn't played up for weeks and week'.
Well that was the kiss of doom of course ...
Luckily after the 30-odd mile drive was almost over, and I was only a mile away from home tonight, I stopped at some lights, and a woman and her kid were pointing at the Jag from the pavement, which is when I noticed a huge plume of smoke/steam coming from the bonnet:
Thankfully it isn't a *huge* problem, as the hose that has developed a hole in it (don't know how, but it has), is just a simple 6 inch piece of heater type hose held by two jubilee clips, so it should be easily replacableable. Whether I can get the c*cking thing off is another matter, one of the clips is a git to get to ...
Might as well go collect the bike from it's MOT tomorrow night, I was gonna wait till the weekend, but I need transport!!
