    Winter shoes? No pairs at all.

    I can see me retiring from facebook soon. So many posts about some many things. I still have to contend that STW overdid it, hence the post. Over-saturation backlash as it were.

    Thanks for the considered reply. Clearly I must try to fill facebook with more other stuff to balance it out. I noticed a few days ago it was becoming too much. Won’t stop me coming to the website – just I’d like Face’s in facebook.
    Thanks

    Yes that makes sense. Pads are worn but lacking contact. Pistons move but not enough. I might make a half decent job in the end.

    Interested in the Van high car booking questions. we have a transporter, complete with cooker sink and seats in the back. Always booked as a motorhome.
    Might think about a high car for future bookings, what doe they check ion the french side? Seats in the back count as Le-MPV for them?
    Love the train personally.
    Like ken at night too as you can sail down the motorways at night when the idiots are asleep, cross while it’s cool and sleep in France.
    I relax once I’ve left the UK.

    How did you limit the upward travel? I had a look inside my reverb, then put it back together and called someone.

    Could have been worse, imagine a spaniel on caffeine? Almost perpetual motion as it it. Good news both offspring and loved one will see another park/stick/something to roll in.

    I had a shudder seeing it written like that too.
    I think we’re better than this.

    If it’s really bothering you take the garage apart, lay new slab and rebuild.

    Lack of stock
    Obviously lack of or wrong knowledge of staff
    Lack of stock
    Enormous mark up
    Lack of stock
    Staff who try and try to sell you something which is totally wrong.
    Did I forget stocking basic items reliably. Not glass cases with items they never sell

    Fixed term elections would mean that’s when it happened.

    Done that, still have the neat set of puncture wounds tattooed with oil 20 year later.

    I think it’s fun to give it back to the prisoner in a language he understands however. Court is a place where people like the man in the dock can watch how decent human being act towards each other. I’d prefer is she put him down with something that reflected her intelligence and the higher standards a courtroom upholds. Don’t lower yourself.

    Christ I wish I hadn’t asked. Our doctors were totally useless and I hope they are developing a cough right now! 7 year idiots.

    I seriously flinched watching that crash. Those kerbs are horrific. Need some good news but my god she was like a rag doll.

    If it comes down to adding electronics to the device it’s going in the bin. As it is way beyond by experience.
    And just typically Chinese crap.
    I will experiment with some foil fist selectively added. Ferrites are like magnets with holes in – more like a large stoat?

    No amount of Hoover action deals with it. Rub the carpet and a layer of dust/old glue appears. Time to go.

    yes the walls need recovering. Its 16 years old and has started to get quite dusty. Its also getting a new bed and maybe an upstairs too.

    Our t4 has been very good. Simple to own and mostly safe to drive, not that quick but easier to live with. It’s having a roof this year if he behaves. I like the T2 and Split screens, but I’m happier to watch others own them.
    The T5 is something we would lust over but can’t justify the overpriced cost of them used. Dislike the older transits – rented a few. Nissan and other van types are either smaller, or much more van like to drive. Sticking with the happy place that is a fully payed for VWT4.

    Isn’t there something called TRIM which the SSD needs to run mac? I read it when I was looking for a dual boot machine’s upgrade. Someone enlighten me about TRIM?

    You can get more choice for the be t4 and 5/6 than any other van. Your options for other manufacturers are limited.

    We hired a French car and drove to France. Only, on changeover days we were held up by the money grabbing swiss authorities who target cars using Swiss roads back to Geneva airport. Result, 70euros handed over, late to the flight. Did offer nazi gold but didn’t give change. I will never visit that country

    That looks about right from what I’ve seen inside my own. will try removing a bottle cage, if it’s possible to run less pressure that might help her thumb with the lever.

    It’s quite a hiss from the headset (never typed those words before) Bother bottle cages I think are in use. More of a waterproof frame design than we thought.

    Okay time for a service i guess. It’s certainly causing a pressure to come out of the headset when it drops, you can feel it as well as hear it.
    If the remote can’t be made easier it’ll be back on ebay.

    Brake light bulbs are out in my fabia when that happens. Because glow plug is erm, related to the brake light bulbs erm, because, er, skoda a says so.

    I’ve sent him a message. No mention on the website about shock servicing. Worth giving as much work to local people as I could.

    No pictures but we use a pair clamped to the bed frame when we’re in the camper with all 4 bikes ( we only have a 4 bike rack)

    Can’t say this is changing my opinion of this company. Might be ace, but I’m not risking it.

    The only advice I can offer is on dab antennas. We have dab in our t4 and after trying several types I had to drill a hole in the roof which appears to have fixed any signal issues.
    I have a dab vag radio in my skoda fabia. It works but isn’t fully connected the the vehicle’s system. It turns itself off after an hour and the gala audio levelling system didn’t work. But I’m happy with the upgrade.

    True enough. Wasn’t able to tell what military regret looked like, I’m just not comfortable with the military around memorials to such utter waste. Didn’t expect such a strong reaction from me.

    We want to Belgium to find all that remains of my great uncle whose name is inscribed onto the menim gate.
    A small reward. It is a stunning building in what’s basically the worlds most dull countryside.
    I was alright right up until the evening service when wreath laying service was an opportunity for the military to stamp about. It struck me that the building isn’t something they, the army of today should feel proud of. It should have been a shameful display of incompetence. And the marching saluting, shiny buttons shoes and the pride made me walk away quite angry. Not a reaction I expected.

    Sometime Saturday also, if it’s wet I’m off on the road bike. Don’t do cleaning.

    Is this going to become one of those questions that in a few months time, you’ll not be able to find anyone who’ll admit to voting to leave. everyone will say they “didn’t vote for this guv”
