Well welcome Hannah and all I can say is you must have the patience of a saint to be with a Mog man. I know my good lady has!  :)

Ha ha well from my limited experience of Mogs any taste in Mogs is expensive!  ;)

Now I am off to fix the typo in my first post. Please excuse me as bed will shortly be replaced with be   :)

Fortunately Kelly is learning the toolbox too and when to just shut the door on me as she leaves the barn and I sob or gently simmer! She also works with me when we run the Mog for rally recovery duties at everything from club rallies to the WRC, whilst knocking the spots of many of the men as a petite women with acrylic nails surely cannot operate a winch and remove cars from their various resting places can they  :D

Haha, Hannah get's similar treatment off people as well, however she loves to be in the garage and indeed will possibly be helping me weld some cab repairs on the 411 this weekend :)

Tidy  :)

I cannot say that welding is on Kelly's assistance list (probably put off by my ability to tan or burn myself  :o )

Though I have to say that after many years of practice and failures I find a lady that will help in the workshop understands a lot easier  :D

Hannah's Christmas presents from myself ranged from a Pandora charm to a welding mask, Hannah was more excited by the welding mask :D

there is a certain element of satisfaction when a lad that looks like he belongs on the second row of a rugby team, needs help/advice from a lass not much taller than 5 foot and normal wearing some shade of pink with a fresh set of acrylic nails!

definitely loving learning the more hands on mechanic side rather than what looks pretty - being on the car scene the past few years has turned me into a perfectionist looks-wise unfortunately!

being brought up around bikes and circuit racing, I don't think I have any experience in a cheap hobby so it looks like a mog is now on my 'would love to own one day' list!

thankfully im not a girly girl, and I too know when to lock brian in the shed so he can shout at himself whilst I enjoy a cuppa with my feet up enjoying a good book!
