Bin day today so last nite we did some more tree choppin. Nayber offered me the option ov jumpin the fence and choppin from is side. So over the fence eye goes. There be a pigwing inner nest in a thorny bush tree fing. Dun't know worrit tis but...

Morning All. :D Still here, still limping. :( I did go and get her a paper but it was very unpleasant walking. Have a great day! :D

Hi mate Was a huge pleasure helping out where I could That’s awesome news you’ve found a French forum that has more detailed info about those stats Hope all goes well mate and u can repair ur old ones

So, some of you may remember me trying to sort my central heating problem out here in France last year. I had a long convo with @gstuart who was very helpful and in the end I worked out how to wire in very standard, old skool, room stats to do...

So, replacing the front one stopped the engine falling out and the front wheels from falling off. Replacing the back sub frame to stop the rear wheels from falling off. Best not let Hippo see this, might upset him. He'll swear you have a tratter :p

One of your five a day then Dan.. Hope you're sorted soon

Been with LV since 1993

Front subframe, I've had the rear subframe in the garage for a few months

Queenie: Jules dear, my poor hand tired from working in that Freelander. Jules: Didn't you use gloves dear. Queenie: Tut, obviously dear, I'm not going to work without protection. Get-Er!!

Six monthly or 100 miles, whichever comes first :p

And I bet you have been with them for a few years, no loyalty these days 😟

Is that a yearly service item ??

The P38. Because they couldn't charge a card they cancelled the policy and decline to write a "NEW" policy. If I had seen their e-mail and/or they had called the number they have on file for me all would have been resolved. It's their way of...

Mini or p38 @DanClarke ? J

Well I never. :eek: LV insurance couldn't take the payment for this years insurance automatically (card on file was replaced) and now they say they cannot insure me at all because the car is "too old" and they do not want to insure it. Now, they...

I thought you replaced that a year or two ago? Fallen to bits already?

Ok thought it was 2 so that clears that up. Still need as low a valuation as possible if thats the way you want to go. Although I would expect BIL to hang out for the highest. Tell him fill his foots and wait it out for a year (paying bills...

Don't forget if you do buy it or inherited it, make sure you pee in each corner to let the neighbours know😁 🤔 No wait that's what dogs do. I'll get back to you on that🤔

There were 3 kids from the old gals marriage, so all assets go 3 ways (per stirpes). Wifey, bother-in-law and as her sister died some years ago her share goes to her 2 kids. So we would need to buy the other 2 branches of the family out (2/3 of...

Why does W want it? Why £267k thats not half? thought there was only 2 to split it. Unless its a better place/area than yours and W would agree to somebody doing the work (Not free labour Dan) then you sell your place and move in, then maybe...

...that the old gals bunglehole has just been valued by an estate agent @ £400k. We will get 2 or 3 more valuations and start the probate process ASAP. Wifey has floated the possibility of buying it. :eek: That would cost us at least £267k...

Share holders dun't vote on what water companies spend on assets. So lets not starting making up silly stuff like them blocking reservoir build. They have to meet wot the water regulater wants done. If they dun't spend enuff on meeting...

As you have stated that water companies don't construct new reservoirs due to planning issues, if a application is refused it would be referred to a government appointed planning inspectorate for a decision, however on infrastructure applications...

We all missed youI sadly put on weight since you were away.

Nice to hear you are doing fine:D. Keep plugging away at that rusty FL it will last a little longer:p. J

Am here. Freelander had MOT and passed :) Booked in for subframe fitting and now to get rid of my Kuga. May have my eye on another Freelander. Hope everything with everyone is as best it can be. The I hugged the mot guy 🤣🤣

Hi all, hope you are having a nice day! I gotloads of brownie points when W got home today, so worth all the cleaning up and "grass mowing" I did. Since she had to be up at stupid o'clock this a.m. she is now asleep on the sofa, so I am having...

Morning All. :D Drugs seem to be working, the pain in the foot is greatly reduced already. :) The care & usage label on the drugs runs counter to the Drs instructions and warns of possible kidney damage. Dr. said take 1 tab 2..4 times a day...
