Yeah, Rod, imagine if St Nick refused you an entry through the Pearly Gates because you had not been a good boy to your engines.
BTW walking the dog twice a day is good exercise to start getting you back in shape.
Then begin bench pressing Austin 7 cranks -Oldfart will loan you one-working your way up to 1500 Cortina and finally 272 Boatanchor crank. You wont need power steering then.
