What did you do to your Series today?

Good news, today I passed my first cardiac outpatient assessment.
Now I am allowed to drive, drink beer, and perform in our band (not all at the same time :) ).
I'm also encouraged to exercise to the point where I'm out of breath (WTF?), this will be useful for when I replace the shocks I ordered during my rest period.

Imagine me then, being allowed to drive my Landy after a month (I've been on holiday too), it was like "Helloooo old pal".
I removed the cobwebs and tried to start her, and she turned about half a turn and died.
Luckily it's a 200Di engine so I gave it some glow plug and she started instantly within the next half turn.
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeh! :)
 
Changed the front sidelights to LED to try and increase visibility; photo in sunlight (left is LED). Better but looking to find 21w versions.

Seat base is in, trans tunnel, and 4WD levers freed off, lever bronze welded to take out slack on pivot bolt. AND it moved on own power, tested clutch, good; then refused to start, dead coil! so one step forward ......

I arrived from south Africa to Spainlast week, had a heart attack and 3 stents in the pulmonary artery. Can't drive ,and the wife says I must have complete rest, except when I am cooking apparently. So all I can do to my series is plan. And look at the view....
