Gotta remember how to post a picture.  Yep happy it paid for the bill and even luckier that Dad said just to pay him back $3000 and I could keep $500.  She is doing real well results came back from what they took out and it had clean lines and low grade (which is good) she's almost acting normal.  So good to see the first 2 days of her home scared me.

i went into ur gallery and had a look then went back to the post and now their are there.
must need to go into the gallery to get them 2 link with the post as im on prepaid virgin broadband now, its a bit slow and drops out a lot but its heaps better than being tied into telstra, they gave me a free internet security to try for 2 months
(i never even used it) (or their linked email address@bogpong.com)
 but failed to let me know that after the free 2 months its mine for 2 years at $10 a month.  so i told them 2 shuv the lot.
so then they hit me with a canselation fee of $422.00 that i refused 2 pay till they added $15 per month so i paid it when it reached 2mths =$452.20
the B#$@%#$S W#$@$%S A##$%#@S hope they go broke.

far out Scotty the poor little girl. looks like it was a huge operation.
i feel so sorry for her and hope she gets well quickly and u guys have lots more good years together.

shows u love her heaps.

She is acting now only one week after the operation like nothing is wrong.  One more week before the all clear and the half bucket taken off and then it's beach time for her alot.  Her favourite place.  She is getting spilt rotten at the moment.  She's going to look real strange when all the hair grows back.  But still the best dog in the world

Well i'm still having problems now with the engine.  It sold and the guy came and picked it up at abou 4pm on NYE I get a call from the guy who put in in the boat who says the engine is f***ed.

He says he got in in the boat fired it up and was cruzing at about 3500 RPM for about 10 minutes before it blew a head gasket.  Took off one of the heads and says says the bores are pitted and the reason the head gasket blew was they are after market heads and needed a hole punched to release vapor or something like that.  Also when some spark plugs are taken out water comes out of the hole.

Now I had the engine built some time ago and the only time it ever ran was on the dyno.  I have a friend that says maybe he did something wrong and took on water.  Also the possability that because it sat for so long and maybe already had water sitting inside due to the hole not being punched.

I can't get onto my engine builder at the moment becauause i'd like him to speak to them and know what he thinks.

The engine is now near shepperton so it a fair distance too.

I thought I was done with issues.
