Ooooh, this sounds like a winter sun break and a bit of a road trip :)

Some nice Portugese red and BBQ'd sea bass with fresh picked limes, blimey, this is sounding more like a Mills & Boone crossed with Delia Smiths cook book LOLZ

She remarked how I'm always outside working on my Rusty, put her straight and made it clear that it's not just a car, it's a hobby in terms of spannering and off road driving, turns out I can be quite aggressive in the defence of my not so Rusty 200Tdi Land Rover Discovery :eek: :):D

Don’t invite her down then she won’t see it :).
 
I did get a look at it and no I was not pleased, at all :(

Got all excited when I got back from work, started it up and let it tick over as it's been a few weeks, was busy with a few other jobs and when I pulled out my old bit of carpet I found the sender recess in the tank was full of diesel, looks like the sender pick up and return pipes have rotted through, i knew they were crusty and had planned to replace the sender but didn't expect it to fail before I'd finished welding it up o_O

Oh well, another day tomorrow.

Shirley it’s betterer to find it now, rather than after yu had finished it?

I had planned to replace it before the end of the rebuild but was hoping to not have to do it before I finished the cutting and grinding works.

How did the door hanging go? I assume you safely avoided hanging yoself :D
