ahh what i call project completion syndrome ,

the last 2 percent of the project equals the effort put into the first 98 percent ,
this is due to the work that still needs doing effort being multiplied by the effort of resisting the worry of will it work ,
and then multiplied again by the energy used to resist the temptation to say that'll do and bang it all together quickly !

in algebraic terms

98%E=2%*ERW*RBTQ.

(ERW =effort to resist worry)
(RBTQ= resisting banging it together quickly)
(E=energy)

I think these formulae are sound, however for myself I must add a multiplication by the "get sidetracked fucking about with 205's" quotient.

I agree, I have a clutch to replace, rear brakes to sort out, a oil change, fettle nitrous stuff, fill bottle up, check slick fitments, and on and on and on.......this list is boring me!
