I forget where I've put things after five or six days, let alone years! (If it's my glasses, it can be a matter of minutes). :roll:

I got lucky with finding the ball joints which I'd purchased circa 2012. I was searching for something else a few days previously and had come across them in the process.

I've lost count of the times I've ordered some part again because I've forgotten what box or crate it is hiding inside! :oops:

I need to replace my clutch slave and I know I've got at least 2 of those somewhere,
Tried to fit the bushes into the Watts link rods today, the lube they supply with them is as sticky as hell and goes everywhere.

I was actually going to rattle can the thing but I surcumbed to the 'who is going to be looking under your car?' argument, which at the time was quite a reasonable question. 😁
I can see you have changed your mind Dave. The german say: "Außen hui innen pfui"
