Vera is a new member then? Aloe from me too then! 🤣🤣🤣

Nice thread, thanks for sharing. :)

Funny how "I might as well do this at the same time" leads to multi-day work projects. After finishing the installation of the Roamer OD, I thought I'd add some heat/sound insulation to the bottom of the centre seat panel, which lead to doing the...

Hi ya WL, hope all is well andthe new job suits. :)

Aloe Vera for you then. Morning folks, watched the storm last night and feeling a bit sleepy today for it. Food shopping later 😑

Tie the rope to the rear of the car so when you drive off,the ramps will follow. Saves walking too far carrying them back to the garage

Theres always one show off int there. 🤣 🤣

I just drive over the pit :p. J

Tip of the week...... You need 2 lengths of rope...tie one end to the ramp & lay the rope out the full length of the motor and drive over the rope, the weight of the motor on the rope stops it sliding away. :)

Fing is today everybody has elecy powered stuff so may already have batteries for that brand, which is why they now do them with/without batteries and chargers. J

Stihl are a sleekit bunch. They sell the machine but all the other bits are extras. Eg: you buy a chainsaw you get the actual machine but the guide bar and chain have to be bought separately..expensive way to buy kit. (Maybe still got a sad on...

Off to Lavaur tomoz for the show "Rock and Cars" which is always fun. Bizarrely the frogs can't get enough of yank wheels. Good music from the 50s and 60s, booze, food... should be good. Then Sunday the Round Table are doing a thing up at the...

Boughted a noo electric hand shears for grass and bushes, like the Stihl thing. You had to be careful, as many on display, although all costing much the same, didn't come with batt and charger. :mad: Looks like this a noo "thing" with batt...

Up at 6 a.m. this morn to take W to A&E. She tripped and fell while we bimbled around Castres last week before lunch. Of course she fell cos of her dodgy foot, the paralysed one and twisted it or summat. We carried on and once home after the...

Hot Hot Hot here today in Wimblowdriver Land. Put me sun parasol up and had a few beers on me patio. Bit of bird watching with me bins (no not that sort), was watching a buzzard high in the sky and spotted the first returning swifts. Summer is...

Morning All. :D A bit of crash-bang-wallop from the skies at midnight, cool & damp now. :) No plans ATM for today. I really did get burnt on the cycle ride yesterday. :( Down a bit more on the diet, so I shall keep going. :) Have a good day! :D

Make yerself some HippoRamps (TM) https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/hipporamps-how-to-guide.257760/

I rather think that Stanley Sir! has other uses for the 'spare' bits of rope he possesses.

Yer drive off the ramps thinking I'll just go for a test run & wipe out all the neebs fences n hedges 🤣 🤣

Dropped my mobile phone today & the screen is goosed, its has had so many repairs tis like triggers broom but this time I think I'll buy a new one.

No that's far too "butch & masculine" ;)

Will you be borrowing it off @Hippoo?

Not quite, but they is very, very flat. 🐬🐬

Flippin ot . Luckily the drier on the compressor in banjaxed so the air guns spray water ⛲

TBH I have never had much luck with drivin onto them, so I tend to jack the vehicle up and put the ramps under them, or use axle stands. I'd have the same problem with W's Pluriel.

I use lengths of timber to extend the ramp for smaller vehicles Saw ramps on line but their depot isn't far from me so went there and got some discount.

My 50 year old ramps are too steep for modern cars. Cars had more clearance at the front end back then, unlike moderns which have noses that almost touch the ground. Not found anything with a search, that will suit my needs. Like you I think a...

...that a very enjoyable trike ride was had. Only 10 miles but the sun was blistering hot and the breeze was warm. Avg. Speed a mere 12.8MPH with a bit of assist. Smashing!
