I have a confession to make.
Nowadays when the D2TD5 throws its toys out of the pram I do have a little think about a Freeloader.
I just wonder what its towing capacity is as we tow a Citroen C3 on a car trailer and I'm not sure that wouldn't all weigh too much. :stars:
2 ton limit on the Freelander 2. Drops when yer use the rule of fum of not towing more than 80% of the towing vehickes weight of 1.85 ton.
 
Mornin
Bedroom clock stopped :rolleyes:

Another Cafe breakfast with GF and I'm payin, good job it's only 8 squid for two :D
Finishing 107 rear tub today with a bit of luck
Stay positive all :)

Was looking for me sander smornin but can't find it. Twas a black un decker. Fink we gorrit in the 80's. Ain't used it for many years so not sure iffits been nicked. found me knee pads though. Was looking at bosch ones. They do rectangular pad type and circle pad type. Which one does yer prefer?
 
Seems a bit different to what @Hippo said.
Which is backed up by "carsguide".
But it would be right on the limit and towing right on the limit up hills is not fun, at all.
We would have to change our route to cut out most of the Massif Central, although we couldn't avoid the trip up to our place, at 600 metres.

Hope you find it.
If it had got nicked surely other stuff would have been too?
I hate knee pads they bind on the backs of your knees, so if I really have to I put pads in the special knee pad pockets on my wuk trowzis. But mostly I just use a kneeling pads/mats of varying different sizes. A bit of a pain but worth it. ;)
 
... a funny one for y'all.
We were both drifting off to sleep with lights out music off, books all put down for the night.
Ring-Ring, Ring-Ring. It's the MIL with a question.... "Did I send a birthday card to my Favourite Granddaughter?"
WTH, it's 22:25 PM and the thought enters her head and the question has to be answered immediately irrespective of the hour, it cannot wait till tomorrow, because she will forget all about it if she doesn't ask right now (true).
Answer was... "We have no idea what cards you have asked us to post, or who they might have been for".
Woman's definitely going senile, no sense at all. :) But hey, there we were wide awake again.

Rectangular. Then you can buy the sand paper in a roll and cut off pieces to fit the sander. Very economical compared to buying packs of sanding sheets. I get the good quality green stuff.

Additional; whichever tool you buy, be aware that even some of the quality brands are getting their tools made in chi na. Get something made in UK, Yurrup, or the States if you want it to work for more than a week or two.

Before the last 600 m you could off load the trailer car and drive them up separately. :)

Has non replaceable brushes - ok if its only used occasionally. Hook n eye fixing for the sheets, or conventional clamp-on for sheets cut from a roll. Look at the label onnit in B&Q and see where it is made.
