At last 4 years of part time mech eng degree came to an end yesterday with the final presentation being completed

Its great to finish, especially this last year, as its taken up far too much time, with any spare time being spent on the degree (i did take time out on my birthday though april 1st, and ended up at silverstone to see JF in action)

So, its time to focus on the mini again, went into the garage yesterday and there was considerable layer of dust all over the miglia, I can also get round to properly pestering endaf for the bits he's sorting out for me from when I bought the car

Congratulations buddy, I have been there and done it and know what a hard slog the final year is, and that was doing it full time, so I'd imagine doing it part time would need even more hours putting in.

Well done!

Well done fella,

Right then, get on with the mini, IMO without a doubt you have the nicest car on this forum, you should be shot for not turboing it, but I'll let you off for the moment. Pull your finger out and give that car some track!

Well done matey - I took exactly the same route as yourself with the part-time, and know what a challenge and hard-work it's been.

I assume we will be drinking to celebrate? LOL

Well done mate, I've got two more full time years left...

After some time out before uni working I really really miss the money from full time work and cannot wait to graduate and be in your shoes!

Well done mate!
