XTreme Posted March 8, 2023 Author Share Posted March 8, 2023 Just been to the supermarket for our weekly shopping and ran into my boy, the grandkids, and the fat Polish Psycho. She didn't say a word just glared like a deranged retard as usual. Going to be fun this Saturday because we've been invited (first time ever) to the youngest one's birthday party. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Advisories were invented to cover your arse but yes, could of had a visit. Would have been nice to see it as an advisory the diff is mounted on 3 bushes this being one of them got an advisory on the other two this year 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was looking at that but with the van i have they say you can temporally disable it by turning on the ignition then turn on the hazard lights and press the accelerator 5 times the van will beep then you start the engine and the TC will be off but you have to leave the hazard lights on, turning them off resets it 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tango Posted March 9, 2023 Share Posted March 9, 2023 It's pretty mild here today, but the forecast is predicting 90kmh winds over the next couple of days! Not going to be cold, just very windy! Got back from the ride this morning and had trouble opening the front door. Brute force won the day, but the lock mechanism has been dodgy since we moved in, so I've bitten the bullet and ordered a new lock mechanism. Unfortunately it won't be a direct replacement for the current one, so there's likely to be some modifications to be made to get it to fit. Shame that I got rid of most of my woodworking tools before I moved over here. Ho hum! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motobiker Posted March 9, 2023 Share Posted March 9, 2023 Snowed in. Day off and snowed in. I’m not bitter. Just checked the calendar and today marks 100. So tomorrow 99 and so on. Tick Tock. Meanwhile the snow is deep and crisp and even and good king Wenceslas needs shooting. I wouldn’t mind but I tripped over my imaginary 12 bore and twisted it’s snoot. a life ruined. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might even take it with me. I’m sure it’ll go down a storm in the misty hills of Liguria. In short. Yes. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both tested neagative repeatedly but very bad chest infections. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
