    Jokes???

    A duck walks into a pub and orders a pint of beer and a ham sandwich. The barman looks at him and says, "Hang on! You're a duck." "I see your eyes are working," replies the duck. "And you can talk!" Exclaims the barman. "I see your ears are working, too," says the duck. "Now if you don't mind, can I have my beer and my sandwich please?" "Certainly, sorry about that," Says the barman as he pulls the duck's pint. "It's just we don't get many ducks in this pub. What are you doing around this way?" "I'm working on the building site across the road," Explains the duck. "I'm a plasterer." The flabbergasted barman cannot believe the duck and wants to learn more, but takes the hint when the duck pulls out a newspaper from his bag and proceeds to read it. So, the duck reads his paper, drinks his beer, eats his sandwich, bids the barman good day and leaves. The same thing happens for two weeks. Then one day the circus comes to town. The ringmaster comes into the pub for a pint and the barman says to him "You're with the circus, aren't you? Well, I know this duck that could be just brilliant in your circus. He talks, drinks beer, eats sandwiches, reads the newspaper and everything!" "Sounds marvellous," says the ringmaster, handing over his business card. "Get him to give me a call." So the next day when the duck comes into the pub the barman says, "Hey Mr Duck, I reckon I can line you up with a top job, paying really good money." "I'm always looking for the next job," Says the duck. "Where is it?" "At the circus," Says the barman. "The circus?" Repeats the duck. "That's right," Replies the barman. "The circus?" The duck asks again. “With the big tent?" "Yeah," the barman replies. "With all the animals who live in cages, and performers who live in caravans?" says the duck. "Of course," the barman replies. "And the tent has canvas sides and a big canvas roof with a hole in the middle?" persists the duck. "That's right!" says the barman. The duck shakes his head in amazement, and says .. . ...... "What the **************** would they want with a plasterer??!"
  7. You need to visit a tacho centre, there is a parameter setting they can change that stops it from doing it, happens occasionally on our fleet, mainly with a new truck that hadnt been set up right at pdi, or if its had a tacho head repair/new head fitted.
  8. Well.... you recommended it to me, but theres a bit of an issue, because its such an old series apparently you can only watch it on betamax!? Way before my time, any ideas?
  9. Have you cleaned carb and fit new kit/needle/diaphragms etc?

She had a lot of family respect and battered a lass who bad mouthed her/family, when it came to shake hands at the end she snubbed her to emphasise the fact that she shouldnt of done it and warned her she would batter her for doing so! ?[emoji123][emoji123] top lass!!!!

    Just came through on whattsapp from someone yolky, i dont read newspapers or watch mainstream tv, barely listen to radio much (only at work cos its on in the background) its all doom and gloom and depressing politics, so i’m a sky fiction series/documentary/box set or netflix user only i’m afraid.
  17. Or bend it round a bit more with some brute force and ignorance! [emoji6][emoji123]
  18. Got some salt and pepper spare ribs int oven at min, shall sit down shortly with another peroni and devoir! [emoji39]
  19. No! You are!!! I’ve just covered myself and dog in Peroni after reading that! ???
  20. Good lad you! You’ve always stayed loyal to Honda all these years, glad to hear you pulled out all the stops for her and treated her to some fresh oil, new air filter and new plug! [emoji106]
  21. Those engines are pretty bullet proof, it obviously took some strain to throw a leg out like that. I’d buy a secondhand one from an old generator that hasnt worked hard during its life. Be far cheaper than buying new, and if that fails on you then do same again, you’ll spend less on 2 or maybe 3 second hand engines including time to swap over than you will do with a new one.
