What a lot of bits

Spent several hours tidying up from yesterday - limbs all aching (I guess from struggling to get engine and gearbox out of the van and into garage).

Tried to reconcile the thirteen page parts list to the boxes and packages we had received, this was a fairly impossible task as (a) many things came without any identification (b) the parts list has wonderfully descriptive identifications such as "cy wing brkt ali upmk3 LH EPX" - now ok I can work out out that this is probably a left hand aluminium wing bracket but still it is a bit of a pig to work out what that is in amongst best part of 1000 parts. Marking the parts with their stock codes would seem too obvious!

After several hours we realised that full reconciliation would probably not be posibble at this stage - and, hell, we wanted to get building, so having worked out that most of module 1 and 2 parts were in one box we decided we would start...

And yes we have fitted the rear left hand wishbones - whoppidooo!

Work/school tomorrow (boo) and even worse some business dinner in the evening for Tim (double boo) so no building now 'til Tuesday night.
