It's Christmas.

I have calculated the spare cash in my business as

A + B + C + D + E = F/4

Where
A = Just enough to live on over the next year
D = THE Corporation Tax and VAT that is due by the End of March
C = THE Corporation Tax that is due March 2021
B = THE Business Bounce Back Loan that needs to be paid back at £250 quid a month for 4 years from June.
E = B = The Price of a Nearest Monaro to me.

And
F = The Outstanding Mortgages I have on 2 Investment properties.

Where 3B = THE value of ISAs and other savings, which are ring fenced for a rainy day

Please help me with the man maths.

Wife says "Are you ever Going to replace this omega. It's a bit old now"
And I say "There's only one car I'd replace it with and you'd hate it more"

Not yet, due to COVID. Going in in the new year. In reality I’ll probably stick with the blower I have as I cannot justify the massive expense involved, especially as it’ll most likely start breaking again with more power. The moment it’s reliable.

Think mine is about to be declared Sorn, more strict lockdowns in Ireland until possibly Feb so won’t be able to use it.

Shame cos I have just had a new Mantic clutch fitted.

Happy Christmas all!

Depends on contract work situation but may have to sell the Ute next year. The GTSR will remain in storage.

I was until the cold start was “tweaked” after the chiller was fitted (it didn’t need it and I didn’t ask for it). Starts fine but feels really lumpy until it’s up to temperature. Others have reported such great results from Luis’ work I thought it was worth biting the bullet.

Just desperately hoping for restrictions to be relaxed and to do a couple of European rallies.
Oh! And to remove centre box from exhaust. Not quite enough noise

Got a visit to AAS booked in March for a couple of lower control arms.

Oh, and some ‘aural’ improvements, of the tubular stainless steel kind wink
