Good luck Macster, the rats in Kent are posh, you will need steak as bate rather than rice peas & fried chicken

Well i thought it went quite well...Sounds like a good job & fairly easy to...

As is the way they have other people to see but should find out one way or the other in the next few days...

Only downside is a 4 day stay over up in Glasgow for the induction course...Just have to dig out me kilt & ginger wig I spose...

Git,
we are not all of the ginger variety up here you know. Some of us are now grey... well TI as I keep telling everyone.
Just don't wear your kilt out on Tuesdays, it's TV night in the big city...

Right now where's my sheep gone?

Found a 1970s Ransomes 20" petrol Lawn mower in my shed at the new house when the previous owner did a very sh1t job of clearing up when he left... it was a non runner, but complete.

so decided as it was spring I would see if I could get it started..... Amal carb so corroded all the jets were blocked and the throttle slide woulnt move, no spark and fuel tap missing.

so a few hours with my AF spanners and its alive ......... pulls like a train with its 150cc Villiers/BSA side valve engine.


How sad am I that I should be so happy saving old tat from the skip!!!!!! oh hold on, that's what we all do with our storms

It matches your pillar drill lol .

no better feeling than getting old iron running again

some council yards have a very expensive machine to sharpen that mower
you could try and blag a free sharpen

well this was yesterday, but I went back thru the ck stag weekender thread, and it cheered me up and made me laugh out loud, great memories...

Getting piggy on its wheels for the first time .
I had a sit on it and I've forgotten how small but tall the Vtr is .
Feels like a 125 compared to the blackbird .

Getting my last few goodies for the storm. Love parcels and have six this week



Nothing special but still cheered me up as I was suffering with a Brutal hangover today.

I bet its Dandelion and Burdock!

saturday afternoon, suns out, get the bike out for a real good run . 230 miles of pure fun ,but the funiest part sailing down the M2 heading home
sitting about 85 ish sails past a skoda and kinda to late to find out its a traffic branch car , so acts all normal and carries on with them just sitting back a bit. a further few miles on and of the slip road comes this cockhead in a Audi A5 cuts across infront of me and goes straight to the outside lane and sits about 90ish at least and the skoda pulls out past me , sits behind mr Audi who then thinks its a race, just about then the skoda lights up like a xmas tree with blue lights .

god i smiled as i sailed past, the little things in life that brings a smile to my face...

Typical Audi driver
