Not really sure how it happened however, it was a little warped Nothing major, just a enough to make contact and make my life hell May have happened when I tried to seat/remove it (thought I had used a rubber mallet)kilrwail wrote:OK - Inquiring minds want to know.

How about an Italian Iced Tea?narfire wrote:Well done Jay. I think I'll have a glass of wine or a gin and tonic in celebration... decisions decisions...
1/3 Martini and Rossi red vermouth and 2/3 ginger ale on the rocks... garnish with orange slice...delicioso!
A lovely old Italian car for a stubborn old Italian
