    OK (Can't resist!) What is the one and only difference between a Tom Collins and a Gin Fizz? No conferring or googling please!! Has to be said that they lived in Hull which is so flat, as is the area around them, that to learn how to do a hill start all learner drivers had to find a...

    The Vesper breaks the basic rule of a cocktail in that there should only be one base spirit, either gin or vodka but not both. So naff off Ian Fleming. If you have no NP or Kina Lillet, (which you can't have as I have tried to get it and can't), just go for simple Dry Martini/Martini Bianco...

    I never had my D1 "flip" but then I doubt I drove it as spiritedly as you might, even in the Dales!!

    Anti roll bars

    Yer well the only answer to this is: "you would". 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 The D1 did roll like feck hence the Gaz shocks which made it much better, after the 2" lift it went back to where it had been before, which I lived with. But the stiffer springs also stopped it rolling too much to a certain extent. I...

    My grandpa used to use a huge belt when he put my dad on the back of his bike, going around both of them back in the 20s. He was stopped once by a concerned person who said, "Do you realise your son is asleep behind you?" I think this must have happened more than once. I was always amazed when...

    I love all this talk. Even though I need a translation!! Though I guessed what the pegs were!! When my mate and I used to go out on his he got a bit fed up of me "steering from the back" whenever we went past a bus queue with a tasty wimmins or two in it!! 🤣 🤣 🤣

    Anti roll bars

    I agree with you. The arms on the ends of the bars etc would have to be very short for it to affect them.

    Well I opened that image in a new tab to try and enlarge it to see exactly what was on the door of the mausoleum. All I can make out is "Karran" on the top of the portico. So I guess I will have to go a googlin to see what this is all about! Well I did, and all it really did was get me to a...

    While W is away getting herself cut about, I realise that I m drinking a full bot of wine a night instead of sharing it with her. So tonight I decided to take myself in hand. So far I have consumed a roll-your-own Martini style cocktail where I experimented with Suze, instead of Noilly Prat. Not...

    Anti roll bars

    Are ARBs really that sensitive to a 2" lift on a Disco 2? My Disco 1 got an "accidental" 2" lift when I got an Indy to put heavy duty rear spings on and I followed his suggestion about putting the rears on the fronts. Never did anything about the ARBs and they seem just fine. I was far more...

    I love the "old boy". Am I that much older than you at 70?🤣🤣 Where we are over here here are lots of forest tracks that I could go on if I had a dirt bike and my mad Landy neighbour is also a bikist. Who knows? It might happen one day!!

    Having a mother who was a doc who spent her time as she put it "cross matching blood by the bucketful" and telling us stories about a bikist coming in in one ambulance and his leg in another, she made it quite clear that I would never be able to get a bike. Funnily my mate's mum was a district...

    I has nevva driven or ridden a motubike but I worked on my mates even stripping down gearboxes. All this before I got a car. So, question, am I right in thinking that you don't go down the gears?
