  1. And i couldn't have given you any notice as i only decided yesterday when one of the lads messaged me are you out tomorrow. Far too early to be up for a ride though 0C and waiting for my morning calling LOL
  2. A pity you can't use that photo in next months BOTM without being lame eh Bob
  3. Forecast is great so tomorrow i will be staring with some van action and then styling and profiling on the XR with one or two others from the TRF. Sunday will probably be a recovery day. Planned route
  4. I don't think that's going to be a problem, wont be able to ride that a 100 yards without ripping the undercarriage off not where i live anyway LOL
  5. Perhaps it was the blind man that was fingering her in the street, Probably thought he could smell the fishmongers had a prod to see if it had been gutted then bang, a black eye
  6. And none of his ten mates had a camera Im beginning to suspect they were all fictional characters created to disguise his weekend of debauchery in north wales
  7. Me a couple of times but i only have one photo. Didn't you go to the dragon this month
  8. Have a good make fitted and you will be ok. Make sure you put a corrosion inhibiter in the heating system once your happy its all sealed. And a magnetic filter
  9. It gets better, the new flush valve didn't seal so had to swap that this morning for a different make so that's done now. Decided to put a new bog seat on while i was at it so called into B&Q to get one but when i got home it was grey instead of black ffs. Took it back and had a mess about with the return because i didn't have a receipt, even though i was only there 30min earlier they couldn't find it on their system. Anyhow i got to change it, wondering how i made the mistake of picking up a grey one i double checked, the display one was marked up location 4 and all the seats in location 4 were grey. Then i looked at the display one again and it said the only colours they came in were grey or white yet the display one was bloody black so ended up with a different bog seat to what i wanted as well LOL.
  10. Boilers good it's got a ten year warranty on it and serviced every year, anything wrong with it is an easy fix not like the piece of shit i had before it. Its the heating system i'm worried about, it's at least 25 years old and a lot is buried under floors that will be difficult to get at. There's a few places i can see evidence of leaks where the copper has gone green below compression joints but are dry. My thoughts are whats leaking is so small it's evaporating so i can't see it, i think its got to leak a lot worse before i find it. I did find a leaking hot water pipe while looking for the problem it was wet around the compression nut but dried out as it ran down the pipe that was an easy fix just quarter of a turn with a spanner sorted it.
  11. Please tell me i need all the help i can get
  12. Off work today as i had to visit the dentist this morning for a checkup, or should i say so they could take money off me for the sake of it. I've had a productive day so far, i weighed in some scrap, fitted a steering wheel control interface in the marmite wagon so i can use the buttons i thought i could live without on the steering wheel, took the boy to his training course and just changed the flush valve on the upstairs toilet which has been driving me mad these last few weeks, i originally thought it was the fill valve so i changed that and it was still dripping, the drip, drip, drip, in the nights was driving me insane, so this week I've been turning the water off to it every night to stop the drip, which then led me to the real problem. After turning the water off overnight i found the tank was empty in the morning the flush valve seal was leaking slightly and when the level dropped in the tank the fill valve opened causing the drip, fuck me i can see why the chinks used water torture in the past. Now all i have to do is find the bloody leak on the central heating system, i haven't topped it up since fitting the new boiler about 8 years ago but this last week i have to top up the central heating system daily and i have no idea where its going can't find any wet patches anywhere.
  13. Looks like something homer Simpson has drawn LOL
  14. I think @Six30's brother nicked your scoot @boboneleg https://www.facebook.com/share/r/14hYecsdFp/
  15. I thought that at first as it was in the cold outside bit of the garage but the last time it died it was in the warm inside bit and has been since, i shall have to kick it out in the cold to see if it does it again.
  16. Well i left the battery disconnected for a week the voltage was 13.23v at the start of the week and it was 13.23 at the end so reconnected the battery and after 2 weeks the voltage is 13.20v so not sure what is going on with it.
  17. How is it only now i have discovered this little arrow that takes you straight to the quoted post. god knows how much of my life i have wasted scrolling back through the threads
  18. Is that top inlet cam a tooth out or is it the angle the photo's taken from.
  19. Don't you have trace heating on your outdoor water supplies there. I put some on the condense pipe from my central heating boiler a few years ago after it froze and backed up into the house . Our winter temperature's get nowhere near as low as what you have i thought it would be a must there.
