What have you done to your Landie today.

drove it to work and the passenger side wiper fell off.

tried to drive home and the clutch stopped working......after 5 minutes of threatening to sell her she started working again

You drove it to work and back and yet only broke it twice? Do you honestly expect us to believe that?


I moved mine a whopping 10ft today to allow the ballast to be able to park the chav box.

Stuck some HID bulbs in. Now I can see where im going!

"like"

Checked the oil levels in the axles. Applied grease to prop shaft. Then went for a drive.

I think the thermostat is sticking. I need to replace the coolant so I will do it then.

Oil change tomorrow if it is dry and not too cold......

sticking open or closed? if sticking closed as long as it aint overheating, id leave it in for the winter, bit kinder on your engine

Did you do a basil fawlty on it ?

Boo, Christmas is ruined, No snow. Brilliant clear blue sky's and sunshine forecast for the next week. I got my Defender all cleaned up and serviced for nothing.

Cut more of the wheel arch away after they bit at my tyres again, thats the last of the rubbing sorted ! can finally get on and enjoy some of these offroad trips rather than worrying about my tyres catching. along with the lift it should be perfect!

I took mine for a spin to ferry the Mother-in-law and dog about and drop off xmas pressies.

had to nip to work in it,
prayed it wouldnt start so i could take the tractor, unfortunately it started. so i got black hands from the steering wheel and i spent half the time travelling at 25mph due to the hills. tractor would have been faster.

on the plus side i did get to play truckers and twin sticking the gearbox and overdrive with 1 hand

sorted one side for cable deflectors.

cost 11.50 for the both sides so cheap as chips.

Swapped my mirrors for powerfold ones and fitted the ECU, just ned to pickup the proper powerfold switch now. I have wired a push switch in for the moment

cleared some random EAS faults while number 1 son replaced the RF receiver for the excellent new blingy model.

Then I hared a bottle of champagne with the Mrs. Bliss.

Drove mine back from the hospital after being with the missus there since 9am yesterday morning whilst she gave birth to our gorgeous baby daughter who was born at 3.31am today

:5bparty: Congratulations chap Your poor missus must be well knackered thats a loooong time

Thanks BB, she was knackered.
She wasnt in proper labour til about 5pm, then started the pushing etc later on, but the little bugger didnt want to come out so she was born by forceps delivery. Im a bit fooked myself, but obviously not as much as her like.

Best present you'll ever have
