Two hours upside down with my legs against the roof and naught but a screwdriver, socket set and two small spanners for company and the Elise finally has its new throttle mechanism.

Took another hour on top of that to convince it to CLOSE the throttle as well as open it, still at least it has a proper bearing in it now.

Also took it for a test drive with the roof off (after I realised this would make working on it ten times easier) only for it to start snowing as I drove through town, fun times.

House -- In, awesome. Garage painted. Shower fitted. Loft boarded and mostly insulated. Nice.

Car -- Still going but trying to use it less over the winter. Took it on track at Castle Combe for a Sprint in September -- finished 2nd out of the Elise’s despite the lowest spec car.

Work -- Keeping busy. Had some After Effects and Premiere Pro CS4 training today which proved interesting.

Christmas -- Presents mostly sorted, weirdly.
