Recieved some news today that was not what we were expecting (which puts more of a delay on ordering parts from www.lada.co.uk
Added to that a load of hassle yesterday when we were told our benefit was stopped because of a cock up in the system (not our fault and all sorted now)
Anyway I was feeling the need to take out my aggression on something...............So one of the jobs on the Riva was moved forward, and I attacked it with the angle grinder!!!!!!!!!
I need to get a new hammer and chisel plus some metal drill bits and spend the next few days and weeks chiseling the remaining bits off. (well I do have all the time in the world)

Tomorrows job will be to attack with a wire brush, curust and a coat of primer on those inner wings.
At least I've got some more scrap metal to practice my arc welding on
