Best of luck with finding the one socket you do not already possess!Morning all tis dry with a cold wind, I'll finish my coffee then im off to find a 36mm socket for the rear hub of the tranny
need to do the brakes. Back later.
Here have a kiss x
but appreciate the gesture!)
Thanks for that, I won't bother. I think I might make some up, the Yorkshire in me coming out there!!
In case I can BA, which meter did you get, if you don't mind me asking?
It was this one but 200A DC model.. i paid about £30 i think. Been trouble free so far.
But of course!!!!
You can tell the Morris minor in it from the curve of the back of the roof, I suppose, if you think hard enough about it, but I was too lazy to think about it!!!
How did you come across it? Just groovin around eBay for poop?
.
Ta mate!
Or 5x the price if you went to maplin
.
It's when you do a job twice because you forgot you did it the first time, that's a worryI take longer to do jobs. some can be a benefit
Not got to the forgetting what I was there for...........yet

Exactly! and I can take big needles and solder them onto bits of wire, I did that ages ago to go with another meter I bought expressly for automotive use, a Gunson thing I think. Just needs me to take push fit connectors and put them in the two main leads and then the other leads connected to the three other types. I used this stuff all the time when making up looms for kit cars. Must dig them out.
I find I do jobs on cars much faster than I used to, but I am sure that is just practice/experience.I take longer to do jobs. some can be a benefit

I went to the yard to find one & there was a floating caravan stuck under
Oh well the tranny brakes will have to wait, turns out the hub nut is 65mm ive got a 67 its may or may not remove it but
it will damage the nut as these things are solid
the pier with some peeps on it. They'd managed to crash into the mooring boat was tied up ??? then ended up stuck.
I towed him out & into the boat hoist, I noticed he'd left his lad about 12 in a dingy struggling to tie it up &
he had no life jacket on so I gave his dad a hard time, told him I didnt want to see them down the pier without a lift jacket again.
Young lad couldnt tie a knot & was wearing a big heavy jacket leaning over the side of a silly wee rubber dingy when the wind
was forcing him away from the pontoon. Anyhoo thats my moan for today.
Back oot to put the halfshaft back in.

So you went somewhere to do one thing, did another that you saw needed doing then came away without the thing you went off to get in the first place!Oh well the tranny brakes will have to wait, turns out the hub nut is 65mm ive got a 67 its may or may not remove it but

Only joking afore, well done and they were lucky you needed a socket!Oh well the tranny brakes will have to wait, turns out the hub nut is 65mm ive got a 67 its may or may not remove it but

It that were me then basics like that would be required learning before going out.Only joking afore, well done and they were lucky you needed a socket!
What a bunch!
You can see why in Frogland you aren't allowed anywhere on water without certificates sticking out of your earholes!
I imagine the 12 year old doesn't wear shoes with laces!!! Not that I'd tie a dinghy up with a bow!
How long does it take to teach a kid a figure-of-eight, a sheet bend, a bowline, a clove hitch and a round turn and two half-hitches? (Deliberately left the reef knot out, unless the yacht is reeeeely old skool.)
I was going to post a reply to that. But by the time I got to the end of the postings, I forgot what it was
