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 🙂

Afternoon 31c here, air con struggled sat in traffic on motorway, home in front of fan now with a brew

Morning all! another extremely hot day, predicted to get up to 39 today. Pool cleaning to take place. (CBA yessdi in the heat!). Have a nice day! :):):)

Morning All. :D Another scorcher it appears. :) No plans for today. Have a great day. ::D

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...

Mornin 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 🌞🌞

Nights start to draw in, in a couple of days. Soon be winter again ---- :eek:

@DanClarke sorry to hear ov yer loss.

Could be, I did run it and did lock to lock and driven it a little since I'll see how it goes on a run tomorrow 🤔

Air lock?

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...

Yep - overfilled is not good. I aim to keep mine between half and three-quarters

He's too flippin fat and lazy :D

Theres no chance of that dog getting through them gaps ;)

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...

Give it a good run - stick some tunes on and use the air-con. You’ll enjoy it and so will yer FL!

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...

Charging FL2 battery, was going for a run but it's too hot Only had 11.8 volts due to much locking and unlocking, starting while doing a service, starting while changing power steering oil etc etc. doesn't help that the mirrors fold every time I...

Afternoon Lovely sunny day, managed to keep house down to 22c by having blind closed and windows shut. Painted GF's fence this morning, looks better in grey and silver than rusty black and faded gold :D Dog behaved as well, just lay there and...

Mornin Sorry to hear that , hope it's not too sad as it was expected

Morning All. A sad day here. :( The old gal passed away quietly at 05:21 this morning. Her son was there with her. A long life, well lived and now at peace. Have a good day. :)

OK, get all that. But as long as you make a note of how much you back the mixture off, I don't see how that would be a concern. sure it'd weaken the mixture across the range but they often leave it running a little rich. It is obviously tuned on...

Power steering system flushed with 2 litres of new fluid and new reservoir fitted I have a noisy pump, never noticed it before, let it develop for now Cleaned the seats as it's a lovely day and hoovered the life out of the interior, not a dog...

... that the hospital called my wife to talk about the MIL. The GA on monday has brought on delirium in the old gal (it often happens when they have dementia in the first place). Her kidneys are shot from weeks and weeks of vancomycin, her o2...

Mornin Warm but dull for now Had to put canes up as sunflowers are now at about 3 feet and I expect em to get much higher. Putting some steak in slow cooker for tonight Stay cool all :)

Morning All. :D A pretty rubbish night. Hosp called at 1:39 to say the old gal was fading again. :( A lovely day here. :) Have a good day. :D

Friend of mine used to use carpet underlay, think the stones idea was to keep snails off but different people give different answers :)

Wot does we fink about mulch for covering soil in me plants pots? Is small stones a betterer option to stop weeds growing in em.
