Wilton,
I dispatched to you a jar of the 2015 red habanero + lime pepper
jelly. Goes great with roast chicken or lamb, brie cheese, etc. A French
lady used to add it to her oatmeal if you're feeling adventurous..
Cheers,
Andrew

Wilton,
An honor indeed. This is the equivalent of getting knighted across the
pond.
I will curate your gift carefully and ship soon.

The Big Contest has ended. It was quite exciting, for me at least.
Here is the denouement. It was a very close call. I was actually
quite
pleased at how little I spent compared to my initial guess, which was
a
couple hundred dollars above actual cost. I probably would have
saved
$50
if I had the time to order from Autohaus AZ, although not sure if the
quality would have been equivalent. Both Napa and Advance Auto were
able
to have my parts delivered in a day or less.
Break down:
Two rear rotors from Advance Auto (Brembo brand) - $72.50
Pair of generic hoses, rear brake pads, and rebuilt calipers (Napa) -
331.85
Less core for return of old calipers
*(110.12)* Total cost for
parts $294.23
3 hrs. labor to install calipers, rotors, hoses, pads $238.94
(includes
$13.94 for shop materials)
Grand total: $533.17
Entries:
OK DON - $380
"Curly" - $496
Curt - $500
***ACTUAL COST - $533.17***
Randy - $550
Kevin - 630
"Mountain Man" - 830
Congratulations to Randy for being just $16.83 above the actual
total.
Curt finished second, $33.17 lower.
Randy, Winnipeg Customs will probably either confiscate/eat or
collect
250%
duty on, a jar of artisanal jelly. I can still ship, or let me know
a
designee (proxy?). I will need a physical address.
Thanks to all,
Andrew
Cool
Sort of like winning the lottery.
How about sending it to Wilton in appreciation of all of his stories
of
his childhood?
RB
