Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?

As it is getting close to end-of-hibernation day for Hugh I have fished a box out of the understairs cupboard. It's been there for three months since I bought it in the slack, ie cheap, period of the...

Re: The All New Megathread

No rain for us today, thankfully, as most of the bits of Oxfordshire I go past on my way to work are still underwater, as they've been for weeks now. Thankfully most of the flooded roads are now...

Re: The All New Megathread

Pretty drizzly on and off all morning and still lots of flooding on some roads, so may be another week or two before Hugh pokes a wheel out of the garage. Getting itchy feet to be riding again I must...

Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?

As things break or die I am replacing them with Stihl battery equivalents. Currently have blower and scarifier (AK series batteries) and strimmer, hedge trimmer and pole hedge trimmer all using the...

Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?

So was I... Hopefully my B&S engined Hayter will last me a bit longer yet, although as I have some Stihl battery kit already I'm hoping their battery mowers are pretty good.

Re: 25 years

Jayne, I think we'd all love to see a video of you making at least some of your amazing sounding model, especially if you were wearing a ballgown at the time :cool:

Just renewed Hugh's insurance and it only went up by a few quid, so I feel very lucky (for a change).

Re: The All New Megathread

Cold and foggy getting to the Ford dealers for 8 am today, but a caff breckie was a nice consolation. Went for a wander to kill more time and can report that the Thames at Marlow looks very angry...

Re: 25 years

I have finally worked out how the scanner function of our Epson multi-thing works. Hopefully this link to a public folder on my drive will work - it's the SV650 sales brochure I mentioned that we...

I'm tempted to say I'll have a dram of whatever Bibs has been drinking, but as theories go it deserves discussion. Not by me I hasten to add - I have no idea...

Re: The All New Megathread
