It was down to a lucky comment Dave- a couple of mates called round for a brew and when I was whining about my struggles, Ritchie commented "oh yeah, very coarse splines them- they're a bugger to line up"
I got a pair of pipe grips and gently rotated the input shaft half-a-spline. That did the trick!

Really do they show a tape delay or do people stay up all night.

They tell us everyone around the world is watching ,but I dont think they pull in the numbers they say ,but I could be wrong after all we are out here in the middle of the country so news travels much slower here ;)
The Superbowl is live on BBC tv right now, Drew. Coverage is due to finish at 4am UK time. I know a couple of people at least that will be bleary eyed at work here tomorrow. :lol:

I'm an obsessive NFL lover and have been since '82 - drewcrane; Denver have been my team since day 1, finally visited the city in 2010(we're skiing Breck et al in a couple of weeks too as it happens). This past season was fantastic, it's great to be a contender again two years after 4-12. Next season is ON tho, hopefully this year was just a warm up.

As db says the game is huge over here - the two London games are sold out already for next season.

Very cool to see so many fans on here,we can have a few rants here and after summer training camp it is on!

wow I am amazed at all the fans from around the world,but you guys must have been just beat waiting the half hour for the power to come back on ;) .

And although it was a very entertaining game I just cant stand Ray Lewis ,so I just left the party before I could see any more I just could not stand to see him hoist the Lombardi trophy BTW the parties over here ,humm well the amount of food and drink consumed riuvals only thanks giving just some great food we were at one that had 8 bifferent types of chili even one with lobster,scallops ,shrimp,crab all in a bisque/chili just amazing food I am still full.........oh well again we have to start this up in the fall and we can find the true NFL FANS
