My wife is the only woman I have lived with who doesn’t replace the toilet roll. Which is ok cos she is fanatical about everything else being put away, tidied up, washed, arranged. I leave spoons on the side, dirty dishes out, stuff out of the fridge all the time, not to wind her up although sometimes I enjoy that. I wonder if she’ll ever crack and murder me in my sleep…

On an unrelated note I have put the soft top on my Hippo anticipating a lovely sunny week.
Every time I do this I imagine the designers laughing at how ridiculously awkward, fragile and fiddly it is to get it up and down. In fact if anyone has the 2 window panels sitting around please let me know as the zips are nearly shot on mine.

I have that problem with 17mm spanners, which never seem to be available, dispite having 1/2 a dozen of them somewhere.

I'm pretty good at loosing everything so the first thing I did after building my garage was screw this board to the wall and hang my spanners in full view. I still loose them from time to time but usually not for long.

The evidence is in plain sight.

You need multiple files, because different ones do different jobs, ditto the scissors and other items there.

However, unless I'm mistaken, or we have identified your superpower, it is not humanly possible to use 2 extendable tape measures at the same time. So, you must have lost yours and bought a replacement, just to find the original. Or you lost yours and bought 2 because you knew you would lose 1 at some point.
 
Not really done anything to mine recently, but I did notice a particulary black looking, smallish cloud of smoke out of the back after a speedy junction manouvre today.
 
Replaced glow plugs. Waiting for tomorrow morning to see if it starts without smoke now.

also replaced intake manifold for one i cleaned out earlier.

Learned valuable lesson: if you use a pressure washer to clean the manifold out, don't stand over it.

Normally one of them is in the house but it somehow ended up here. :vb-confused2:

Today after washing it I jumped in and felt a drip from the interior light!
Turns out the roof new aerial I installed a few months back is leaking. I guess the silicone sealant I bought today for the leaky glass roof in SWMBO's Kuga will have another use. :confused:
