You are on drugs

Watched as some **** thought it didn't matter and leaned a roofrack full of Willow branches against it while she unloaded the rest .. till I told her to **** off and lean her ****e against her own car!!

The Head (I'm a school caretaker) had me in the office later and asked why I'd shouted and upset the 'Play Leader' .. she'd heard a different version, where the branches had 'accidentally slipped'.

The Play Leader also got a bit irate later when she had to leave .. I had somehow lost the Disco keys for a while, and somehow it had got parked so she could only just, not quite, get out ...

you should have lent a hi-lift against the side of her car

She nearly had a Hi-lift enema ..

Can we have a translation please?

If you've dug up the driveway what are you going to pour the fuel on?

What fuel are you going to be using?

You need to remove all the soil from the hardcore and then compact the ground, then lay Hardcore and compact that. then blind with sand and compact that Then lay the concrete or Tarmac or Blocks.

If using Blocks I suggest you also use a weed control fabric under the blocks. and then compact the blocks when once you've fully laid the drive.

Didn't do a lot tae mine the night as when a picked up me other loom ah found a wire come off from somewheres and spent ages tryin' tae suss where it come out off! Found it and then took the rest of the scotch locks off then soldered some and used the insulated crimps on others. Ah also rubbed back some dodgy bits on the panel that's got the front vent levers on and gave it a quick lick of paint

hahaa i dint make that very clear

right ive broken up and dug up the driveway and cut the trees down and pulled there roots out, then filled and smoothed off the new one then borrowed dads keys to start his car and used up a load of his fuel driving over back and fourth lots of time to harden it up and compact the hardcore.

went around kurusting the areas I don't want to tackle till the summer!

fitted my front bumper back on after tartin the rusty lump sh1t up a bit and collected some bling for the stainless rock/tree sliders I made.

Found out me roof is ally/birmabright/wotever cos me mag mount dont stick.Sure haynes sed it was steel

fitted rear work lights and front sticky number plate
(well yesterday anyways)

found where the leak in the drivers footwell is coming from an it looks like the fookin wings gotta come off to sort out a gap in the inner panel has let water in an is now starting to rust.
bastid land rovers!:banghead::banghead::banghead:

how big a job is it to take the outter wing off?
looks like if i take the plastic wheel arch liner out i'm gonna have more fookin welding to do:cuss:

so thats another weekend i can't go out laneing

if its the disco = piece of ****......
1) row of bolts along top of inner/outer wing joint.
2) row of bolts inside front of door, down A pillar.
3) 1 or 2 brackets at the bottom of the wing attaching to the headlight box and relay area in the footwell.


it then takes 7 months before can bolt it back
