Eye promised ma hippo we would go ter chop ter get me washer and he could carry it home but they dunt stock em. So it was delivered. Ah teld ma hippo this but he still got upset when he saw the delivery truck arrive. Later ont he flattered is battery and refused ter start.

Eye knew is battery were going to retire soon so had me charger int boot. Went int castle fer me eggstenshun caybul. Came out frew kitchen past me mower and he followed me oat side finkin we was going to cut the grass. We use the same eggstenshun caybul fer grass cuttin. It were dark oat side an we int cuttin it again ferrabit. Had ter eggsplan ter im it were to charge me battery. That set egdar oft when mentioning tree's. Teld im it were the wrong type ov tree burrit be no good. So we all ended up ont drive charging ma hippo int cold ter geffa. Must av looked daft to passers by seeing a hippo talking to another hippo, crispmus tree and mower about battery charging un they not be made ov wood.

Fings were going ok wiv the charge. Eye were worried about me mower gerrin a chill but he wouldn't go back int side. Too busy askin questions about chargin batterys and why it were flat. Yer hafter bear int mind he gets is lectric from the wall and can't understand how yer can store lectric wiggerlys int a woodern battery ter power fings. Edgars disappointed it be called a battery but not be made ov wood so there wassa lot of questions and eggsplaining ter do.

Fings then took a turn fer the worst when eye eggsplained about uvva ways of startin a car wivva flat battery. Yer can't push start an auto but me mower still wantid ter try. Tried ter eggsplane why not but ma hippo dismissed me mower as being too small and not strong enuff. That upset me mower. The arguement continued downhill wiv me mower calling ma hippo chicken fer not liftin a wheel so he could try spinning it ter start him. Luckily there were enuff charge by then to start ma hippo burreye made sure me mower were back int kitchen oat way in case ma hippo run im over. Put edgar ter one side and ma hippo startid ok. Problem solved. Put edgar back int garden wiv a promise ter read a page ov the haynes manwell to im before bedtime and fings settled down. Let ma hippo charge ont tick over fer 5 minnits un put ter bed int garage after. Eye could tell me mower was cold because he parked by the kitchen radiator. Worra nite. Be 8pm by the time this be all over and me tea were cold anorl.

Love it!
sometimes wish I'd been called to serve.
Specially when i was working!
but never been asked.
Wifey kept on getting asked, finally ended up on a case where a bloke got mouthy so another glassed him and he lost the sight in one eye. Wifey and one other female said it should have been GBH, but the other 10 blokes disagreed, said "he's been provoked". So he got off.
FFS.

I checked the voltage this morning before putting the charger on and it was showing 11.9 volts - a bit lower than usual. I wanted to see if it would start; a few seconds with the glow plugs, a half turn of the engine and it fired up ok. Bet a FL can't do that :p:p:p

Gettta fender :p:p:p:p:p
 
Hard frost out there today. Scattered a bit of rock salt around the outside of Wimblowdriver Towers. Then loaded up SWMBO car with me bits for the plumbering job at dottirs. And spent half an hour scraping ice off the car's glass so's I can see out. Gotta message from dottir, can I delay until after 1pm. Will be not enough daylight to finish the job so cancelled until tomorrow. Then I couldn't get in me fender, all the locks frozen solid. So de-iced them and gorrin. Gonna have a lazy afternoon, I is pooped after achieving nothing.
