  1. Our BA wagon had a few noticeable scratches on the windscreen from the wiper arm scratching the glass when a blade fell apart. They were not deep, but reasonably visible. I bought a cheap kit from ebay with a few polishing pads and cerium oxide powder and had a go at polishing out the scratches. It worked quite well. I just used a little 1" buffing wheel in a Ryobi cordless drill with a slurry of cerium oxide and went over the main scratches, then used a 2" pad to go over the main scratches as well as a wider area. The main scratches are gone which I am very happy about. Where I covered a wider area, it still needs more work to get rid of the very fine scratches that the wiper blades have left over the whole screen, but there is also a big improvement there as well. It is a slow process, but the results are good for removing fine scratches After 21 years there are also quite a few tiny little chips that are deeper, and I think they would not be removed without polishing all the glass down to the lowest point of the chips. I think they will be staying unless I try the very fine wet and dry sanding discs that came with the kit, but I do not like the idea of causing further scratches. If you like working on your car and there are scratches on your windscreen, I would recommend trying this yourself.

  2. truly my day today it's a de-load week at the gym, so got the same workout done in ~25min less time, but half the weight... so not smashing the weights as much today (or the rest of this week) and hit boost a few times on the way to get lunch and back and also got laid this evening. Can't complain with that sort of life

  5. morning all, happy Monday ⚱️ Sunday was an absolute write-off for the missus haha, she had a little bit too much to drink... what a way to turn 37; helping the missus with her hangover and spending it largely alone doesn't really bother me, I knew it was a possible outcome from the party and birthday's are very arbitrary so we'll celebrate on another day this week sometime.

  6. It's always a good idea to ask around to see what the realistic scope of your work is. But if you're not doing it yourself, you should really discuss your goals with a few reputable tuners, and have them design a package that you're both happy with.
