You've got it all wrong, Chris! I have no intention of starting a new vehicle or artillery piece just yet. I was called out last sunday to repair a 30 pair cable that had been severed when an articulated petrol tanker crashed off the M5 in worcestershire ( see here; http://scotlandonsunday.scotsman.com/latest-west-midlands-news/Motorway-shut-after-tanker-crash.4841945.jp ). I just found where the door mirror had been ripped off the truck, noticed that there was an electric mechanism inside it and took it with me when I left. Why? Because it was free and it might, one day, be useful . . .
