Whenever I read "vactan", my brain autocorrects to "fertan".

P1100762 by Paul_Barr, on Flickr
Decided not to give in to peer pressure on the clip ( some may say bullying ) so in an act of defiance I found an even more rusty clip to fit rat style
P1100763 by Paul_Barr, on Flickr
actually the old clip wasn't too rusty it was panted brown, I have others in blue and seen green so perhaps they were colour coded?

Re: WBXlog
A quick check confirms that's about all Classic have left.
The only 2.1 cam being a +7, but as their +2 was actually more like a -7 I won't be spending my €359 on one!
Unless, by deduction, the +7 is actually a -2...hmmm.

Re: WBXlog
I put the standard thermostat back in today, the 80 degree one runs cold in winter.
Also fitted some bling I bought in the summer but didn't have time to fit before.
