  1. First day of the Royal Whelsh Show, take car in for first service the drive to Builth. 4 days of watching and talking! Whacks, Sand, Wayne.
  2. Know a chap who had air assistance on his 4x4 truck (I want to say Isuzu but may be wrong) and took them off as the ride and ability to follow the level was too severely compromised.
  3. Looks nice out from here, Dawn chorus of noisy sparrows woke my but a serious attempt had me back to sleep. She just got the tea up! Jay, Kerb, Mali.
  4. It stopped being a notifiable disease a few decades back, treatment and prevention methods were "fell and burn on the stool". But I reckon that and DED are back again.
  5. I've seen more evidence this year than previous of what could be another bout of Sooty Bark Disease in Sycamore trees, browned and withered new growth on all sizes. Are you seeing the same?
  6. Not heard of level sensor but should have a low oil pressure switch. Bridge that out and see if it runs? Rarely happens but not unknown for a sensor to go lazy.
  7. Crank it with a lead off or plug out. An engine needs fuel, air and sparks. But, it does sound like an electrical issue is preventing the spark tbh.
  8. If any UA guys need work, Brockwells need teams in the Cambridgeshire area!
  9. Tom's alarm went off at 5 so cat napped since! Odd jobs today and catch a couple of pints with crosswords later. Fonda, View, Dear.
  10. Cannot sleep, been awake for a fair bit now! Off to set up our stand at RWAS. Foe, Tow, Graf
  11. Got lucky on storage! Local estate has developed a storage yard close by. Good security, with a wash bay, electric service point, toilets etc for £65pcm! After 20 odd years of having chippers and trailers parked outside the house or in the street, I can leave them elsewhere! Still want to get hitch lock and clamp for peace of mind. The only downside is no access between 20:00 and 07:00.
  12. Morning, awake too early, will be knackered today! Trough, Alga
  13. I've travelled through Angouleme at some point or other, that's why I asked. Had a mate marry the daughter of a vineyard owner near Nantes, epic period fuelled on excellent Muscadet.
  14. Bright here! Local errand then home office. Mick, which part of France are you at? I think if been to your patch. Not looked at crossword......
  15. Morning All, St Swithen's yesterday so 40 days of rain to come. Spy, Dap, Lance.
  16. I'm in! Decent here too but doesn't matter, I'm away in the truck! Anna, Moss, City.
  17. Morning All. She gone for the tea and it is dark in here! Already seen enough about Trump in Sunday papers etc! Canter, Bear, Retails.
  18. Morning Team. Sounds like England not doing well in the rugby! Son in law (sort of) has reversed in to Missus's car and done the bumper! Tom seems to have snagged an interview with Motor Trend TV in Los Angeles after all the drag and drive stuff he has done! Good luck Son! Hear, Slew, Kin, Hatch (don't get this one!) (Here's Luke in hatch?)
  19. Friday!!! After a bit of desk time, more driving and talking to collect a machine. Dry here atm but it just seems to have rained where ever I have been for the last two days! Miss, Starry, Guessed.
  20. Morning All. In a hotel in Preston, missed tea as football got in the way, so had liquid supper. Last day of talking and driving with new colleague, at least for time being. Freak, Waters
  21. Morning Folks. Another day of driving and talking. Not raining here in Dundee but I don't recall it stopping much all day yesterday! Wealth, Thor, Doubt.
  22. Morning. Wet here. Noise woke me up at 4! Driving North with new member of staff for a quick race around my dealers! Ran, Sum, Honey.
  23. Some good 'go to' security tips. I'll use a ball hitch cover and some kind of wheel clamp if the storage thing comes off.
  24. Morning All. A lad was born! Wreck, Tiff, Aye
  25. Lorry park. Not bothered if it is permanent until I retire tbh. Just need to stop parking over the road from neighbours as they got the hump!
