I see it involves the most essential items in the Land Rover toolkit - the oil soaked bits of 4 x 2 and 6 x 2. Absolutely vital for wedging things in place, providing a platform for bottle jacks, holding pedals in the lowered position, supporting engines whilst the rubber mounts are replaced and much more.Mates rebuild taking shape
Morning all, I am doing a guest spot at a local university today. First time I have been to a uni
That reminds me must book the Morrocan barber next to our shop for a cut he's v,good but slow only charges 8€ though.... Haircut booked for 12:20PM
£13 OAP rate (because.... a. I am a tightwad, b. I am an OAP).
I think I shall wash my hair in preparation so as to honour this momentous occasion.

Our horticulturalist dottir uses a technique for mare's tails, put on a rubber glove then a material one over it. Dip it into your weedkiler then rub the damp glove up and down the mare's tail you have a grip on. Time consuming but gets it in among them.Went and did some more shopping to stock them up a bit.
A bloke had his bonnet up as I was leaving the car park so couldn’t resist to chat
It’s a 1920s car and he has hot start problems so he was just cooling the engine while his missus was doing some shopping. First run of the year to top up with fresh fuel. He’s off to a show with it soon,Sotterly show.
Spoke with him for about 30mins

Edit no idea why my post is in 2 bits
Awww! Shame!!!!Cos I was told by @Stanleysteamer
I was brave and pushed the bell ringer button, I figured if it all went tits up I would blame it on someone else
So pushed it and walked in………….
No fires
No headless chickens running around
No flashing lights or sirens
So quite boring really guess it isn’t connected
Oh well never mind, I just have a n other beer while I can get the real stuff

Always pleasing when what looked like a rotten [ ] job turns out to be less daunting than expected.Continued with me fascia repairs to Wimblowdriver Towers today. On the 5.5m length being investigated, the first half a metre had rotten fascia and soffit timber, where the monkeys who put the plastic over it missed off and end closure - left it open to the weather. Found a label inside the plastic dated 1998 so the timber has been rotting away for 25 years. The rest of the soffit timber is as good as the day it was built in 1961. 75% of the fascia timber is rotten in the top one inch - as the sarking felt under the tiles has disintegrated where it is supposed to go over the top of the fascia - this is an easy fix (and I've got a full roll of felt in stock). The rafter ends at the "rotten" end are in great condition, which bodes well for the rest of them. Repairs should be straight forward. Onwards and upwards----
Do have a lovely time!!!...that I am very likely to take herself away for a night ofsnoringpassion in a posh hotel in Taunton and get my headlining swapped by the chap what does all that headliner swap-out down that way. A more expensive way to do the job (400Mile round trip, hotel + expenses as well as his fees) but it will get it done and quite frankly I don't fancy the job and its just 1 months Govt Pension amount.
