Tis no joke. Struggled to lift it out ma ippo. Gorrit wiv me good arm on me good shoulder. If eye'd left it outside it be ravaged.

Eye has hadda bit of flu. Coffin, cold, temperature and shivers. Woke up yesdi to find me shoulder urtin. Musta lay funny int nite.

Should have used kinetic lifting when handling yer giant sacks of hazel nuts. Bend yer knees, keep yer back straight, and lift with yer leg muscles.

Wots up wi ye bud. :(

Isn't Summer in Scotland May 31st till June 2nd though?

Our summer has been a wash out tbh your welcome to the rain.

Oh it won't take that long!!! she's been doing it via whatsapp already, hence the shopping list! 🤣

I've still got one. And use it.

OOPS. Wondered why nobody else has put their bins out. I'm a day early :rolleyes:

Same here. Modern bins for general waste are green here, but mine is grey - it is date marked 1988, so made before green-washing wokery. And its wheels are a bit wobbly. It must have had nearly as much rubbish in it over the years, as one of...

Green bin tomorrow 👍

Nope, never seen one. I am told that IF I heat the plugs up with a MAP-GAS torch they will all burn off back to clean, but I have not tried it.

Always smelled like a burnt Sunday dinner 😤

The tampon burners?

Remember them small boxes that most garages had like mini sand blasters stick the sparkplug in the top press a button for two seconds, clean as a baby's bum

It is a MY 2000 THOR engined car.

Well, I was a bit gob-smacked on that timing line but I cleaned plugs off to remove all trace of the carbon firing line took it out for a pretty good thrash and pulled the plugs and well blow me down the firing line had moved down in the...

The stuff about reading the bottom of the porcelain inside the plug I knew about and it was in the link I sent you, more or less, but the timing line? Never heard of that. What I was a bit surprised about was that he didn't tell you, when fitting...

Good to hear you will be reunited. :D I hope she is well and her recovery is as short as possible. :) Then she can get back to bossing you around as per usual, of course.

TBH we could do with a bit of rain, maybe not sideways but a few inces of wet stuff wouldnt hurt:). J

Good to hear W coming back, get you back into the proper rountine you have seemed a little lax lately :D. Hope all is better and sorted this time. J

....that I did some more tinkering with the Mini. :) It is clearly an obsession. I watched a really informative YT clip (below) on reading spark plugs and I could not resist hoiking mine out to have a look. I did not know that you could...

I took a pic of my ex on holy island under a floating caravan when we got the pics back it said moody on the boat right above her head 🤣 🤣

Swine is nice, near Beverley which is really nice.

'Er indoors took a photo of me next to a road sign with a direction arrow pointing at me, many years ago. The sign was SWINE - a little village near Hull. Saw a similar photo of the guvner, on a pub wall, taken next to a sign in the Orkney or...

Give him a old bedsheet with the wind you got he could sail it home

I'll have to do that. Well I did and the only one I could find was a Merkin no ship in sight. Better look up Auchtermuchty. So, found it there, first Captain of the Clipper Cutty Sark, which was near where I went to uni so I visited it, long...
