Thanks @pushmi-pullu
Luckily my tools are in the back of the 90 which is hiding under the sheet.

Farm have water in the grain stores, the houses, 250 acres of crops under water.

all the pheasant feeders are under water and all the pheasants were sitting in the trees, taking the **** now we are TIER 4 and cant shoot..

i had a lovely afternoon on my Paddle Board taking pics for the insurrance claim.

Had to rescue the farm navara from the barn by paddling in and driving out..
Gonna be a bad day in Jan for the NFU

Best of luck mate.

Thanks @mick the builder

Farm have been busy burning diesel
they dried about half the wheat store today and are going to work late to try and get it all done today


took my diesel tank out of my 110

then went home and fiddled with my non running 90

pump timing appears out
so reset it, bugger still doesn't start

looks like it is all coming to bits again

Bought a pair of Odram Night Breaker bulbs. I contemplated LED’s but didn’t want to have to deal with potential issues that people have with them at the moment. The Osrams are an easy upgrade over the standard bulbs and were a good price on eBay.

You'll like the Night Breakers. Have them in all the cars, they're great vfm and easy to change.

one of them even started and ran before i left

The new Osram night breakers arrived yesterday. Just got to fit them now...

Just ordered 2 galv doors and skins. 10 day lead time to find the paint code?
I know it’s red so far

Drove into town today (30 mile round trip) to organise a blood test, filled up with 40 ltr diesel, last fill was a couple of months ago, recon that might last till March. Getting mildly bored with it all now, I want to go fishing.

I have looked under the bonnet today, and the vin plate paint code is blank.
Do you think that the colour is Monza Red (590)? It’s the closest i can find looking at the charts on line.
Thanks in advance.

Shows you care

Well have been in the workshop daily, missus has been really supportive and understanding and she had her first meeting re the shutting of the Pizza Hut Store she works out today

So figured a day away from the workshop would do me good and offer her some support.

Looks like it will be redundancy, bit of a kick in the tits after getting a 30 year service award early Dec...

Positive could be she will move up to mine, means more help on daily life dog walking, holding of DTI gauge while trying to time 90 diesel pump, tow in when broken down etc.

Painted my new rear shocks and springs in lanoguard, painted my newly acquired light guards in it too. Got a 9mm drill bit for my rivnuts and am now awaiting the galv spring seats to arrive. Also ordered a new diff flange seal and 2 new timken set. Looking forward to fitting them but know it will be ****ing cold
