  1. Started stripping the Subaru donor car and taking photos for EBay .
    Also found I have got nearly half a tank of petrol and nearly a full tank of LPG !
    Is that" half full" or "half empty" of petrol ?

    I brought the kit a while ago and only just found where i had put it so thought I would try it out. In expansion bottle and the Radiator cap
    I was pretty sure it was 100% ok but it is always nice for it to be confirmed.
    p.s - No good for air cooled engines ! before any comments appear.

    Labelled all the flowering crab apple trees in our display collection, and wrote a (surprisingly long) list of the varieties we no longer seem to have 'on display' so that we can try and replace them. Sadly I think Malus 'Striped Beauty' may be gone forever as I'm sure we haven't got any growing in the fields either :(
     

  7. That's a drugs pipe mate....
     
  8. That's a"Bung" I think you mean " Bong" :rolleyes:
     
  9. Finished off a bathroom, repaired a toilet , serviced a boiler, fitted a room thermostat joys of being a plumber
     
  10. Square root of bugger all!

    Spent some time fabricating a bit for the wedge this morning, getting ready to weld it on and then noticed the window had dropped out of my daily into the door...... And shattered. Spent much time phoning local breakers (what a shower) and cleaning up - sourced a window but couldn't fetch it as the other half had a hospital appointment - good job it's warm today!

    Of course I couldnt leave the car sat on the car park with no window so I had to sit there like a prat for half hour and pay £1.60 for the privilege even with a blue badge in a wheelchair spot!

    Car is on drive with a bag on the window, bus still has chunks missing and drive looks like a scrappy again! Still, should annoy my complaining neighbours!
     
  11. Are you also interested in diesel locomotives ;)?

    Ah the smell of the smoke as I stand at the far end of the platform with my notebook, in my anorak and knitted bobble hat......

  13. Not killed anyone.
     
  14. Nope that would have made sense, they said they couldn't explain why the premium was increasing .... i thought it might be down to the fact I'm now likely to be distracted by the endless squabbles of 3 children ;-)
