Store cupboard special
That this feature is entitled ‘Store cupboard special’ is becoming increasingly ironic, as, basically, we seem to keep finding bits that are required, and so adding to the expenditure. That there perhaps wasn’t quite as much in the cupboard as first thought seems to be the lesson being learned.
The initial idea was a make do and mend approach, which is what the overall mentality is and has been, but when bits are missing, then there’s no option – either stop, or acquire them. And if the project stops, then all momentum is lost and all we have is an uncompleted motorcycle (‘unfinished project’ – we’ve all seen the adverts) – which means the pressure is on to keep progress in a forward going manner.
