You lot are causing me more grief. I'm actually beginning to think that politicians might be telling the truth when they say their quotes are taken out of context.

Whose quotes are taking out of context ????

You said "my wife, the mother of my children, whom I love and adore is actually a high class hooker! I'm in need of counselling!"

So, ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm,,, The tin foil hat actually worked, you posted the truth - PRAISE BE THE LARD ! (Yorkshire worship to the pie making - ho hum ,,, ) .... (a bit like the yorkshire kiddie when teething - " tha can tell when it geets it's middle teeth, it geets ta' middle o' pie ! Eeeeeeeeeeeee)

Can I have her phone number please ???? (Unfortunately - due to an embarrassing incident with a barbie doll and a quarter pound of liver - - Mike lost it when you moved ...... ......)

As for the politicians - I have never met one that admits they are dishonest - so there ! yah boo sucks ! they all are as honest as a totally honest thing......Vote TRUMP = VOTE for a FART ..........................

Naw, no way pretty weak, just for a long time

In training.
To be a proper Yorkshire Whippet, she'll have to sup 5 tins and puff 20 benny's a night.
Best advice ever given:
Drink beer, smoke tabs

The smoking tabs is optional these days, apparently they're bad for your health

Hey Mike,

For some reason - it didn't work out ???

Ah, the good old days, when men were men, and coughed up a bucket of phlegm every morning.
I remember in the 80's sitting on the top deck of double deckers and all you could hear was, cough cough splat and you could cut the air with a knife
I did used to like benny's though, but at £10 for 20 you need to be rich to kill yourself these days.

Yup, so true, I used to smoke 40 a day - bride 20 - both gave up about 5 years ago.... still cheap here (relatively) but we now pay for the farm, the leccy, the internet, even the cars (tax and insurance - and fuel !) - for less than the price we would be paying if still smoking - bleeding crazy - plus after 1 small heart attack I would probably be pushing up the daisys now........

Yup, they haven't invented fags that are good for you yet.
I now work off my frustration moving fly tips at work and doing this at home:


That's just the small wood store. I have 2 huge ones down the garden, a green house full of drying timber, a shed full of kindling and a few pallets full of logs air drying.
Try doing that after a packet of fags.
Although I do find beer helps immensely

Yo Mike - Nice one ! - Just awaiting 2 metric tones of logs delivered for the winter - Do you have a closed wood stove or open burner - ours is a stove - absolutely superb !
100 Euros a ton delivered and stacked I can't be arsed to chop them lol - we just collect kindling and especially pine cones for starting - best starters ever - almost 99% of heating in N Portugal is Wood - excellent and cheap !. also smokeless whe burning well, and it smells wonderful !
Waiting for the next 2000Kg to be delivered will post a piccy of it all stacked - you seem to have far more
there !

Some piccies of me 'shed' / farm house and the fire etc... our 'drive' is 300 Mtrs from the road, and that road is in the middle of nowhere lol...

It's a stove, best thing I ever bought.
That's really cheap for wood, your looking at £80 for a builders bag over here, and stack it yourself.
Fortunately I bring alot of wood home from work, so don't need to buy too much.

Without the rain, snow, mud, sleet, delapidation, poverty and 'non reflectives'............. perhaps more like Hebden bridge without the Hebden, or indeed the bridge ....

The Romans built straight roads so that our 'non reflective' cousins could not build corner shops !!!!!..... - history has it's lesson....

Barnsley - Pah Humbug.... If the world had an R Sole - the Piles and bunches of grapes would be dangling from 'Barnsley' ....

Remind me again DD, how long did your Freelander last in your ownership before it expired?

Click to expand...

Less than 6 months - but it was hardly a shining example, and it was the clutch that shat itself (it was already dying, release point was on the floor, even with new and fully bled hydraulics)

Was cheaper to just buy another car than get it home and repaired

Hello all

I have a 2000 L Series Freelander and I am thinking of building my own VP37 fuel injection pump. basicly I'm going to use the hippo original pump and fit the 11mm head from a Rover 220 SDI, does anyone have a good feedback on this mod?

Thanks in advance.

@mike-nascimento Might be better to start a new thread.
