Digital Time Clock
A long time ago, some where on the internet I found a link for building your own replacement that looked pretty similar using new components. Ive had a quick google and cant seem to find it, but maybe have a look? Both my clocks have given up ages ago, I might get around to fixing them, but at the moment its not high on my to-do list

Euro car parts management walk out
Two ways they could cut costs and save money would be to actually give you the right item you actually wanted in the first place, that would save on refunds and store credits to say sorry and secondly to actually have the front desk manned at all times instead of all the staff around the back in the office pretending to be on the phones. The amount of times people have walked in, seen the queue and walked back out again. It doesn't seem to be a local thing either, I have been to ECP all around the UK on various trips and its always the same!

Brexit Poll
Completely true. This has never happened in the world before. There are so many unknowns it boggles the mind! Sent from some app that I don't know how to use!

I guess the conners are realizing that a "bank account with 20 million" in it isn't working on us anymore?!

Brexit Poll
This is true, however it was two years ago. A lot has changed since then and maybe a lot of people have changed their minds. There is nothing wrong with giving people another vote, giving them another chance to change their choice in either direction. We are all human and change our minds over everything. The media has whipped this up into such a polarised subject that being in the middle or changing your mind is considered wrong, you must be for or against which is wrong. I say have another referendum with three options: 1) Accept mrs Mays deal 2) Refuse her deal, but still leave 3) Refuse deal, cancel brexit and remain I know what I would do. We have spent more on brexit than EU membership cost us in 2017: https://fullfact.org/europe/our-eu-membership-fee-55-million/ https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-06-22/u-k-brexit-hit-already-exceeds-eu-budget-payments-study-shows Not to mention the drop in GDP since the referendum. We were the highest growing GDP nation after the financial crash in the G8, after the referendum we actually lost GDP while the other nations were still increasing. If we have a hard brexit, by 2030 the UK could have lost 10% of its GDP. Our current GDP is $2.6 trillion, so 10% is $2.6bn. GDP per capita for 2017 was $39,720. So as normal people we could see at least a 10% drop in that (although poorer people, like us see more), so every year we would be about £3000 per person per year worse off just from brexit. You can already see the changes, things cost more than ever, wages are lower than ever http://blogs.lse.ac.uk/brexit/2018/07/10/higher-inflation-lower-wages-and-decreasing-output-brexit-is-starting-to-negatively-affect-the-uk-economy/ I am by no means an expert, this is just an amalgamation of facts I can find on the internet, admittedly all with slightly different numbers. If anyone understand economics better, please can you explain?

Finding the right mechanic is everything. Luckily I have one who did his training at nissan back in the 90's and knows the 300zx well. Its a bit far to drive from down under though! I hope it gets fixed and all works out for you because when the car is running right, all bits of tarmac suddenly become perfect
