Its a bit perverse I know, but the Mk1 Cortina takes my fancyAgreed, if I win the lottery it’s the DB5 for me repainted in bronze green. As expected I’m glad the series and defenders were well up on that. Woulda been surprised if they were lower down. Great post.
Nah. Its gottid so much power its spinning the urf round.Look at the smoke coming out the back
Did a bathroom in my old house, run pipes under floor, all soldered joints etc, It's still going strong 20 years laterI done all the plumbing in my house, never done any plumbing before....fitted a new bathroom, moved the toilet, bath & sink fitted a cubical shower with leccy pump. Kitchen All new pipes with Belfast sink. I even used a freeze kit to freeze pipes & chop
them. Its not too difficult unless your called STAN.
"plenty of prep and then cook as little as needed" totally agree.
Must admit this is blowing my brains too. I am no joiner, far from it, but I have hung a few doors and cannot see what the fuss is about.O come on its a bloody door, one of the first things that an apprentice joiner is taught is how to hang a door.
There is no way these peeps are joiners now its really getting on my goat.
Nothing perverse about that at all.Its a bit perverse I know, but the Mk1 Cortina takes my fancy
This is getting like ordering a chinese!Nice. A free number 4

Love it!! The pipes under the floor, the rerouting, the new rad.Did a bathroom in my old house, run pipes under floor, all soldered joints etc, It's still going strong 20 years later
This isn't my property so I'll have to grin and bear it for the time being, I know what needs doing but all they talk about is budgets.
I had to tidy up plastering in my hall after they did a crap job, also had to remove woodwork and start again with quality timber, looks so much better.
I have to sign a disclaimer because I kept my old shower and need to change the radiator as the one they fitted is a small towel rail and although looking nice it doesn't throw any heat out and its a bigish bathroom.
I didn't tell em that I had re routed some of the plumbing before they started so as it would be neater and more efficient
Really do feel for both you, your W and the old dear. So sad what dementia does.Morning All.
Nice day, even though its a shopping day.
Hey, the old gal is throwing a wobbler at the hospital; at about 11:30 Sunday night she got dressed in her going home clothes and announced she was leaving. My wife found her sitting there in the chair at the side of her hospital bed fully clothed at 5PM yesterday. I'm not sure what part of "dementia" the hospital don't understand.
Wife has seen a picture of the wound and says its pretty grim. They are waiting for a skin-graft specialist to come this week to take a look. I have got a bad feeling about all this TBH.
It is really dragging the Mrs. down.
Have a good day.
Issit broke'd? They normally are.Good start to the week I got 280 ltrs of doosil & this...Go.. I bet you can guess how much

Had a few as well but wish I'd kept the '52 Citroen 6 cylinder Traction avant, the Moskvitch and the 66 Austin Cooper
Have wanted a Traction for a long time. surprisingly they are not the most expensive of veteran cars over here. Not cheap mind but still not all that bad.
When I was a youngster working out of IBM South Bank (next to the National Theatre) we used to use a local boozer at lunchtimes and it was opposite the waterloo East station stairway entrance. In one of the railway arches was a business/bloke that bought in Citroen TA's from France and totally refurbished them. The finished cars looked absolutely splendid. So you got to see a rusting hulk alongside a finished item. This would be c.1983/4 and I was just 30 years old. How time flies.
