    Yes, but it is fiddly. You will find that the blades on the fan are not all evenly spaced and there is one gap which is quite a bit wider than the others, this is useful when trying to thread it through.

    The problem can also be caused when they simply cannot find a vein. W has this problem and they can only take blood or inject her in the right arm as she had to have a lymph gland removed from under her left when she had breast cancer. The least painful I ever had, i.e. no pain at all was done...

    Are there no auto machines near chez vous where you can stick the token in the machine from outside the car then run away until it is finished?

    That is a flipping shame. Mind you, a lickle ride in it and she'd get out shaking and say much the same as she already does!! 🤣

    I agree, just leave it as it is, you don't need numbers to tell the time on an analogue. I have a watch that is charged up by solar. Hung it on a door knob in the sun once. The glue melted and all the numbers fell off! Carried on using it, no prob at all!

    You'd have to do a google pic search to see if any of the tiles are worth much, some, like the ones in old hallstands and fire surrounds can be worth stupid money. Some people buy the old hallstands just for them. We were very lucky to get one with all the tiles intact and then to be able to...

    Yes we are in the south-east corner of the Tarn so couldn't be much closer to the Aude. Soz and all that it'd have been fun. Never actually physically met a member on here yet although have had invites and one has watched me drive onto a ferry! Get in touch if your route goes anywhere near...

    Propah instruments though, not a ton of warning lights that tell you nothing except that you MAY need to worry about summat. It used to be "consult your handbook, or Haynes manual", now it's "plug in your diagnostic then go see someone who MIGHT be able to help." Those were the days!!:):)

    Well before that we had things like "Dove grey" yuk! Then in came all the metallics, which seemed cool until the lacquer coat "went". Car colours at the present seem to me to be totally boring. Talk about 20 shades or is it 40? of grey. Or silver. Or it looks like a Tonka toy in flip flop...

    Just realised you posted "that recording" so we agree, it can't be the original!

    It does look kinda fuzzy so may be quite old but my memory is not of this one. Maybe I saw it on top of the pops!

    @gstuart Hi Gary. Any chance of you helping this guy out?

    2004 Discovery 2 Can you swith RHD lights to LHD?

    Yep he is a real good guy. He has a very large collection of Dolomite Sprints, every time I go there he has one or two more. I had one once, the only car that ever beat me. He used to run a Landy garage subbing out the mech work to another guy. But the mech got cancer and even though he was...

    Poor chap, Hinglish deffo isn't his first language. But I am wondering what Italian word also translates as sprouts. Could he simply mean spings? Of course he could,
