Neither would be allowed in my house. Totally agree with you

My older Sister had the Jab and all the boosters, she still ended up in hospital with covid, damn nearly killed her.

To be honest, you should test yourself as a minimum. ;)

I've had all the jabs, doubt they do **** all though ;)
 
New microswitches arrived today. Gonna have a second go at fixing my "jumping" driver's door lock.

Typical. Every time you just want to enjoy your labours she bites. Have now learned the hard way, callipers off and check those guides & pistons! Tricky :)

New disks and pads a couple of months ago. I wasn't well so gave it to my local indi to do. The handbrake is really good so may just be binding a bit.
 
Drove it twice, once to pick up my wife for lunch and once to drop her off again. On the eternal fuel economy chase, I'm down to roughly 17l/100km (appr. 14 mpg). Not too bad considering the mix of German motorways (she's thirsty above 100 km/h), kayaks on the roof, town and some off-roading. My first lead on a Fairey Overdrive fell through, the one unit was sold before I found a colleague in the UK to facilitate shipping. There is another one, just not sure if I'm really willing o spend 1,000 pounds on it...

Now that the new job is starting to replenish savings a little, I am planning to do some more serious work over winter. Definitely the rear suspension, some bits of the front suspension and at least one Detroit Truetrac diff (in the rear, the replaced open rear diff would replace the worn out front one). I do have my eyes now on a pair of new cylinder heads, I think those might help with power and fuel economy. I like both of these things. I'm considering those as, looking at millage, the cam is most likely needed anyway. While I have a mechanic working on the old lady anyway, my guess is I can have him do the heads at the same time. And the diff, I don't feel like skimming, even if I did it would take ages. and she needs to be ready next May to go for a month to Iceland.

One question so regarding the heads. I'm looking at V8Developments heads and those from Turner. The Turner ones are double the price so, not sure if they are worth it. If someone has experience with either, any opinion would be welcome!

I'll get some window blinds today, sleeping in her without sucks. That'll be the most urgent thing to do, there is a long weekend with her coming up end of October!

I'd go with v8 Developments. Not heard any bad from them but heard a few niggles from Turners.

Without it she would have been dead.

1 in 5 still get hospitalised, even double-jabbed. People seem to forget that. 1 in 10 still die, even double-jabbed, lucky she wasn't one of them. And this delta variant spreads even if you're double-jabbed. The good news is tgat with 80% fewer admissions the NHS is actually coping with current demand, although there's the damn great waiting list that built up that still needs sorting. F*ck only knows how they'll get through that.

Here here,our driver picked us up from the airport and he had just come from his neighbours funeral,lasted a week in ICU and he was very anti vaccination when he got the diagnosis and was told it would have been better if he had been jabbed,he said I'll have it then. The doctors reply was sorry too late.:eek::rolleyes:
 
Having a day off from the fencing project I decided to take the car for its MOT. Passed, one advisory one rear tyre close to the limit on the edge. Same one that was advised last year 902 miles ago.Need to get two one for the spare,they were both running under inflated due to my airline gauge being faulty.
