6pot's latest activity

Latest odd goings on here yesterday - several vehicles went along the track and disappeared into a dip past a house further up, but didn't reappear the other side. Then one came the other way and didn't reappear our side of the dip and since one...

Not the best of days. First: Well that was VERY exciting. I was storming up a local hill (just for fun and to let the Mini stretch its legs a bit). I got to the top where it drops from 60mph to 40, then 30 and took my foot off the throttle but...

Sorry if it's been covered already but I think you can use outlook to access an existing email account without changing the name/address.

Yes. So far it's cleaned up quite nicely which is why I initially said it's not as bad as it looks. Don't know what all that crud was but there was loads of it, perhaps carbon deposits which had fallen off after getting damp. Still turns over...

I had a car that started doing something like that quite spectacularly once so I did a Microsoft service, i.e. uninstall the engine and install another one I had standing by.

Worth spending a bit on it then to bring it back

I hired a van that did that ....

Looks a bit like it. It is quite old and had a couple of issues when it still worked but it would be a shame to ditch it because its dual voltage. It was a bit like Terry McCan's taxicab in Come in T64, your time is ticking away... in that it...

Has it been used underwater 😃🏊🏊🏊

Hope everyone had a good bank holiday weekend last weekend. This week seems to have sped by, I've spent a lot of it breaking up a concrete floor which has been hard going even with power tools. I can only describe the appearance of it as I...

Hi, Please be aware of the above scam which was attempted on me 2 days ago during the sale of my LHD Freelander 2. Two guys turn up to view - said they were from Cyprus but their car had Romanian plates. They had an F2 which was a write off due...

Evenin' (well, night...) I was going to say greetings from Portugal but have this annoying habit of not writing things while they are still relevant. So having completed fitting a shower door there we're back in Spain now. Weather dull and...

Like the look of that, flag might be a bit big for the aerial though.

Well, I'm nearly 66 years of age and I had thought I'd got all this out of me and I could live a normal life. For nearly 20 years I've been addiction free and taking it 1 day at a time, every day has been another 1 day away from addiction. But...

Mot on Monday so thought I'd best patch the holes in the passenger footwell. My Dads brill at all sorts of fabrication so he welded and answered the million and one questions my 10 year old had, lovely to see! It's a bit of a bodge but if it...

Engine Oil and filter, air filter change plus new rear brake pads fitted today. Then it got it's yearly oil bath, sprayed oil and diesel underneath and into as many nooks that I could find. I now look like a Junk yard dog.. covered in oil, but...

Update. Fluid from the exhaust drip int diesel an the expansion tank is empty. Best hopes are it's just the head gasgit. Is a right sod, all the way to St Ives an back fer pasties wifout a blip anorl..

You've got too much time on your hands. Get an old Landy and some spanners, maybe a welding kit and the steel from a weeks output from a major steelworks.

Me tratter is poorly. Billowing white smoke out the exhaust. Noticed fluid dripping from the braided section of the exhaust anorl. Hoping it's an njector an nots the gasgit. Need to check coolant level..

Just washed me burd feeder.

Been bldy cold here too, 4° at night, that's cold for here and not usual for late March.

Towlander as it tows brilliant 😁

I recently removed a lot of grass near my driveway and laid some nice gravel down. That was after digging a lot of it out and laying some type 1 or something similar, as a base. Anyway, the compactor I hired for the weekend was a lot heavier than...

Eye is finking again of pulling up me manchester cobbles and relaying em flat. Eye could hire a compactor to level and stamp down the sand but is will be done in patches so lots of on off hire. Looked at buying the leccy one below burrit dunt...

I do like a nice fire. My incinerator is my favourite garden implement and when using it I always chuckle about how much my father in law would hate it. Probably need to heap a load of stuff up and have a big burn up before it gets too dry/hot...

Morning all, I had a fire in my old oil drum last night all by myself an 2 beers. Ahh nice. :cool::cool:

Ours chases things but doesn't catch things much, likes the odd lizard (gecko). Often chases leaves, fluff, shoelaces, other cats etc. When clearing up the rat found a beheaded snake which also went on the shovel to be chucked, thought he'd...
