    got myself a shiny new haynes manual, and attempted to change the aux belt. Bought a shiny new socket set to loosen alternator bolts.

    Bolt number 1 - easy peasy
    Bolt number 2 - broke a new shiny socket. Must have been tightened by superman

    One simple job means I have to take it to the garage now where they will tut over my rounding off of nuts.

    Poo.

      Thought it was time I popped in here again!

      This time it's ruddy Storage Radiators. It's like a ruddy oven in here. It takes around two or three days to get the temperature adjusted, then the weather changes again...

      One of the many reasons we're not staying here any longer than we have to.

            vegan self righteous girlfriend of my father in law , who is getting increasingly irritating.
            The nonsense rubbish from dubious sources she has posted on facebook to show my (vegetarian) 16 year old son is ridiculous. Thankfully he has a higher IQ than her and knows how to analyse and discredit sources.
            He has just pointed out to her (whilst she was in the throes of telling us how cruel it is to take honey from bees) that killing slugsetc is just as bad - yet slugs etc have to be killed so she can eat vegetables.

                Oh, yeah, and one from earlier;

                On a single track lane, when approaching another vehicle, head on, did it not occur to you to pull in to the hoooooge farm entrance/driveway on YOUR ruddy side of the road? No, instead, you ignore it (are you blind, or just plain chuffin' stoopid?), and drive straight at me, when it is clear to the entire planet that there is NOWHERE AT ALL for me to go! @rse!

                          Nope. Sounds like I'm best not knowing.

                            I don't even know what the healf lottery is......

                            Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.

                            Which one are you and is it how you want to be?
