Timing belt needed doing so had the crazy idea to do it myself. Took a while but smashed it out. Water pump changed too, tensioners, pulleys and drive belt. Had to make a camshaft adjustment after rotating the engine after belt tensioning, but was to be expected. New coolant and

Tested out the GoPro today when I took the MK2 Golf out for a spin, silly video I put together.

Won free tickets to a local car show, decided to bring the MK2 Golf and they let me stick it in the exhibition zone.

I kinda love this car a bit.

Had the crazy idea two months ago to renovate the entire back garden. I started mid-March and bought a rotavator. Took me around 20 hours to shred the whole lawn into mud. Took two huge skips of shovelling - wheelbarrow after wheelbarrow of countless rocks, stones, dead grass,

First time driving the MK2 Golf now the engine is run in and it’s been mapped for the turbo. It was utterly terrifying. ~900kg and 400hp puts it like 650hp+ compared to a modern car. It feels like an oversized go kart that wants to kill you and is by far the quickest thing I’ve

Been listening to this for the past two days after Spotify did its thing and recommended me more good music. Great coding track 💻 https://t.co/MfOT7hUoBp

Spent two days working on some complex data structure magic in some cloud functions, no testing or even running the code. Deployed and worked first time. Is something bad going to happen now? Seems suspicious.

Cool waterfall at the beach today.

You can tell a lot about people that ask for advice because they want to change something, by how well they implement it. 99% of people never follow through and the dopamine hit of just seeking advice was enough. It takes a lot to commit to be the 1%, and you can only bounce off

I really want to setup a retro room in the house. Where you walk in and it’s like a time warp back to the 90’s/2000’s. Casette tapes, CDs, MP3, Nintendo 64/GameCube, lava lamps, bean bags and inflatable chairs. Big CRT monitors, gameboys, maybe even some floppy disk wall art. If

Try this stretch and thank me later. Use a sofa or bed with a knee on the floor, depending on height. I do this every night before I sleep for a few minutes each side and it’s so good for relaxing everything after a work day.
