The axe is looming overhead

I'll enjoy the break if..............I can get the Discovery's brakes fixed. On the way into work I had a gradual noise develop. Front pads could be worn inside where I can't see them. Outside look okay but I am towing the caravan tomorrow! So looks like I will be up against it now, half day looming I think! I'm pretty much skint after paying out for the front wheel bearing!

Disco sorted, managed to get some pads from the local motor factor. All stripped and rebuilt in 55 mins including stripping a caliper as it was partially seized hence the noise, the pads were tapered with wear, 3mm elsewhere!

So now tomorrow I can hitch up the caravan and enjoy a few days away with the good lady, no kids, no dogs

Just need to stock the fridge with bacon, eggs and beer!
