i have a leak from the oil pump and am sick of washing/rescuing all the fecking cormorants from underneath
Are they Shags or Cormorants?
I think they're Cormorants gobbing all the fish out of the ponds round here but they might be Shags.
Which are the white ones with blue eyes and a yellow crown?
so can't really tell what colour they were and the washing powder i used makes them look orange
they are covered in oil
they do look fairly well shagged though so they may well be shags
They're black and fairly big...
Off to BirdForum - The Net's Largest Birding Community, Dedicated To Wild Birds to troll them and promote MC Christ's Landy show to the twitchers...
Am I the only one who thinks you're all being a bit harsh here?
OK, the original poster is trying to win a little business. I don't see a problem with that. It's how the world works and I'd rather see the hotel in business in 12 months time rather than a block of flats bought out by greedy buy to let land lords.
The guy is offering what appears to me to be something legitimate to the Land Rover community. That's got to be a good thing, surely? You only need to look at auto jumbles and the likes to see that someone is behind it trying to run a business and earn a fine English pound or two.
I know most get flamed for in first post in the intro section and it's mandatory sport to have a pop, but I think folks genuinely don't realise the emphasis Landy Zoners place on this - most other forums it isn't quite as 'rigid', for want for a better word.
Just my thoughts

Pish.Just me then
IMO the Op was polite aside from missing the intro section (which lots do to be fair, quite innocently). Nobody has to go or feel obliged to fire back sarcastic comments. Threads are there to be read if wanted or ignored if not desired or deemed irrelevant. I go on several other forums for different cars and other things too. I like Landy Zone lots, good banter and 'urine extracting' but find it's probably the most inhospitable forum I've seen towards newbies who forget the intro...it becomes an 'i'll have a pop at them too' thread, everyone joins in to take a shot and unsurprisingly the Op's are often surprised at the gunning down. I take points about the OP promoting an event but it is free to us, not like a spamming trader. He comes to the forum with something relevant and potentially interesting to the audience at no cost.
I'll get back in me box now!

It's got the green oval in the middle of the steering wheel and on the back door...
Plus the drivers door seal leaks, half the bushes are shagged and the front half shaft seal is dropping oil like the Exxon Valdez...
