Morning All. :D A Sunny day here. :) Shopping later. :( Have a good day. :D

I am happy to say that Wifey & I visited the banks we could not get to acknowledge her existence today and all accounts are in the process of being closed. The most difficult one was TSB (who WE bank with) and so we went through a whole rigmarole for the sum of <£150 in the old gal's dormant...

Morning All. :D Raining. :) Got to go all the way to Basildon to a bank because my wife's identity cannot be confirmed by their online apps. They use equifax etc. to determine that you are a real person. All bills are in my name, she has no credit cards etc. So we have to go to a branch...

Good job my MY 2000 P38 is approaching 25,000 miles. It finally feels like it is "loosening up" quite nicely. Most problems are due to the rubber elements breaking down and failing. I am perfectly happy with the performance and see no need for any chips (except with battered fish). ;-)

Dodgy Alternator? My P38 threw up solid ABS/TC fault lamps each time the Alternator went bad. Eventually the bad alternator caused the rev counter and speedo to switch on & off, was most disconcerting 0mph 0RPM, real values, 0mph 0rpm. New alternator (after each time) and the faults all...

Today's mission has been mished. :D Fragrant old mattress all rolled up and secured. Added some pick-up handles. I offered to put it outside under the cover of the eaves but the wife said to leave it for her brother to sort out now the hard part is done.

Morning All. :D Today's mission is to roll up a smelly old mattress at the old gals house and chuck it out. I am advised that rubber gauntlets may be required as it's a bit crusty and fragrant. I shall be armed with some ratchet straps and some jute rope. BIL couldn't manage it because he's...

Morning All. :D Poor night's sleep. Wifey had a little cry y'day it is all getting a bit much for her. :( Have a good day. :D

I know I should but I am an arse when it comes to trying to get things "right" and understand why they are not "right". A character flaw on my part I am sure. If other "mini-folk" tell me that this is not abnormal I can stand down I am sure.

I am still battling with the Mini's carburetion. I put all brand new BP6ES plugs in and I have "tuned" it myself (Go Me eh?) according to the SU workshop manual for the HIF44 carb. It goes really well with no apparent performance issues but when I pulled the plugs today I was surprised to see...

Morning All. :D Normal service is resumed, glad to be back. :) Have a lovely day. :D

Here's the only picture I bothered to take on my trip to the fens. We rode in to Cambridge for lunch. This was taken from the towpath on the CAM. I have never seen so many Swans in such a short stretch of river. We hit the towpath here and crossed over s nearby bridge onto the other side and...

Hi Y'all. I is back from little sojourn to the fens and my cycling. :) I shall catch up on my likes. See you tomorrow. :D

Off to kip in a short while. Will be gone until Friday morning as I am off camping it up on my trike till Thursday pm. ;) I hope all goes well for you all and the heatwave abates but does not turn to rain (very important while triking in the fens). So bye for now, see you on the other side. :D

Morning All. :D A lovely day again. :) Packing for my camping cycling trip today. Off tomorrow early. Have a great day!

When I moved into my house the papers under the lino were 1936 and talking about Hitler. :)

We have an older will, but we are sure there was a more recent one as it was last seen when we put the LPA's in place for the old gall's health & Finances.

My Missus is the Executor and has frozen 2 main accounts, another 2 to do this week. I have suggested that he will try to install himself or one of his dependent children in there but my missus says he won't/can't. Guess what? The will has gone missing! What a surprise.

Which Range Rover Variant? P38 gets speed from the ABS system AFAIK.

I cannot believe it really. :( Even in death the BIL is still poncing off his mother. :mad: The funeral and wake is on the afternoon of the 14th. He has arranged the venue for the wake and because he is going to go on-holiday the next day his overnight accommodation for himself and his wife...
