So why is good steak hard to get? If you don't mind my asking?

Afternoon folks :). Went out for food last night as we couldnt decide what to make for tea. Bad news is our little eatery has been sold and maynot be open this year😢. But we have found another (new place) its a bit further away 30-40mins, so we...

I should also mention that, by law, French garagistes have to be willing to replace non-safety critical parts with secondhand ones. Part of their bid to increase recycling and help the environmint.

We of course would be all in favour of that. Trubble is it'd take as long to renegotiate it as it did to negotiate leaving, and we'd all, both us and the yuropeens, be tripping over ourselves and each other to try and ensure it din't leave...

I did think it tasted a bit funny..

Oh, you mean n-hexane ... Gotta be careful with that ... available in most tool station type retailers ...

I've recently discovered this stuff; it makes superglue go off straight away, which is pretty useful on fiddly bits that need holding together. Other flavours must be more readily available...

This is all very well but peeps like us who have to have our passports stamped to prove we haven't overstayed our long-stay visas., will still have to get it done. TBH, at the moment it is still quite quick, but then we don't use airports nor the...

...and you started the conversation with "Hello, ducky, love your new loafers!"

Was another scorcher here, went to work this morning to shift a couple of boats. Had lunch with a mate not gay just pals. :p

Cant you just use hand signals..

For dip or main beam? what??? Nowt wrong wiv indicators.

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Seams about right for freelander drivers 🤣 🤣

Let me mower cut the grass tonight. First time this year. Weeds av grown back at the bottom of me garden. He asked if he could mow them anorl. Can't be bovvurd to pull em out so eye let him. He's only a little mower but still well ard. Shouts...

Thats just silly water doesnt pour uphill :p Ours is filtered through dead farm animal carcases for that extra zing.

Probably the melted ice in my whiskey that done it.

Do they not have car breakers in Frogland ? Décasseurs de voitures, parc à ferraille ?

As it is the fulcrum for the clip, superglue might not be able to take the strain. But I am already thinking of ways around trying to mend the rest of the existing bit.

I think the silver reflector is different, can you not super glue the broken bit back on ? Or use your plastic gun ?

These are all possibilities although my new gun uses heat to fit metal "stitches" or staples into plastic bits. TBH I can't know until I have got the blasted bit off. I have been waiting for the CitroenC3ownersclub to get back to me. Only one...

Yep but they all sell bits for left hand drive cars. The dipped beam might not pass the MOT in the UK. Yep, it took me a little while to suss that out. I am still wondering if I could get one and doctor it. But yes they do hence I posted the...

There is also a difference between, push fit and solvent weld even though thay state the size and are non interchangeable 😯

I suppose the smell drawers peps in 😤😤😤

I do wonder some Times , but it isn't a hormone is it 😯

Fell er sheep sat int kitchen while leaning ont kitchen wurktop. Squirrel sun baffing on me garage roof watching me. Eye now hassabout 5 visiting. They normally scare eschoher oft. Or one will run up me garage while another approches across me...

A lot of plastics go very brittle with heat and lose the very characteristic that got them chosen in the first place. :(

Well it has been headscratching time here at Chateau Steamer. There are plenty of headlight units on the market for the Pluriel over here, at a range of prices. But of course they are all for left hand drive. I have no easy way of knowing what...
