... I had our chimney swept last week. It had not been done since the log-burner was installed 5 years ago and the chimney liner installed. I was rather surprised at the amount of pure black soot that was pulled out of the liner. Easily 2...

Flipping hot here again today.
Pool up to 25 and climbing.
Clearing the pine branches I had to cut off the trees that make the western boundary when I was putting up the fence two years ago.
I hoped they would have rotted down a bit but nope...
Eye has just re wotched the titan sub telly program on bbc eye player. The company were filming their activities fer history and advertising. So yer get to see the mistakes like choosing to only fit 4 of 18 bolts to hold the end on. End came oft...
Evening all, ive been a tad busy to spend some time on here lately. One of the lads tonight went to launch his boat..as he was
going down the slipway I noticed the pin was out the towbar & shouted """The Pi"........ oh well, by then the boat...

Sunflowers still climbing skywards, look like being a success this year
Might polish the Freelander while it's a dull day 🤔
Meantime another brew is needed
Stay cool and dry all :)
Edit. suns just come out :D
Found these. I took a 3 Door FL1 sill which I made some cross section photos from.
Maybe useful for rust proofing and wax injection.
Note that the grommet in the rear wheel arch covers the back end, the plastic door trim screw mounts get you...
Repaired the rip in my drivers seat bolster, found some leathercloth that matches perfectly and glued it on
Not the best of glue jobs but it'll do fer now 🙂

Did you start the engine to purge out the air? Or lift the front wheels with the engine off, turning the steering lock to lock 10 times while checking the fluid level?
The latter is the correct procedure, which reduces the chance of air getting...

Dull start but we'll be roasting by dinner time no doubt
Up early goin shopping at the famous Bury Market :)
Must give me sun flowers a drink first
Stay cool all 🌞🌞
Wishing I had left well enough alone now
FL2 Power steering pump gone noisy after fluid change, no time to change it before road trip so have to cross fingers and hope it'll be ok,
Sounds like a bearing but I'll know better when I check it over...
It's not the locking and unlocking causing the battery to get low. The car stays awake for 30 minutes after single locking, and 10 minutes after double locking. That's what pulls the battery down over time. When these are being serviced at LR...
I wish,
Got more painting to do while the weather's nice and we're out at Bury market tomorrow so that'll do the job. 30 miles of Motorway each way,
Drained just over half a litre of oil out as it was reading too much after replacing the oil...
My old banger £200 daily driver runaround bmw failed the mot today with a knackered subframe. I had a good look at it and the whole rear suspension looks like it's been parked in the sea for some years, so sadly off to the scrappy it goes. It...
