Sputnik finally had a bath

Post by Sputnik »

Alright shame on me, its been a year since Sputnik was washed. But now that I have a new house with MY OWN driveway (okay I share it with the people next door), and I have MY OWN garden hose, this morning I finally gave it a bath. And boy did I discover I do have paint chip problems in my hood! I hadn't seen any before but I've got a really big one that will need some attention because it goes right down to the metal.

bah! My camera be dead - took too many house photos and haven't charged the batteries yet. I'm on my way to Kingston soon (if I can afford the gas!) and it'll be dirty by the end of the day.
