Madeira is great. Is there a fella still doing mk1 panda 4x4 tours there? If he is I don't see what choice you have but to do it!

Beige Panda

Last night's beer choice was an easy one

I had my 1st vaccine yesterday, AZ. Today I feel like I'm battling a hangover but nothing worse than that. Conclusion: get hammered after your injection and you won't notice the side effects the next day [emoji23]

Yarp!

Sad news about the driver, I've had a few trips to Barrow over the years and spotting this plying its trade was always a highlight ARF at the advisory on its latest MOT Righto mate, seems legit*

Objectively: 89 Citroen AX 14TZS that I had for a couple of months which found new and exciting ways to constantly leak coolant every day, had numerous electrical issues, pogweasel paint and ultimately threw a rod in the middle of the mersey tunnel. Subjectively: 94 Golf 1.4 base which was a lovely original example of a car, ruined by it being a 94 Golf 1.4 base.

Thanks Santa, I'll enjoy this

I'm on a 10 day self isolation because they changed the rules halfway through a holiday. It was worth it though. As per usual Corralejo delivers the goods:

Received! And also sent mine out today - hopefully the lucky* recipient will have it by chrimbo

Mint Maestro delivering rubble to the tip today.

Aha! That particular brand of spring assister kit is something I have direct experience of, as when I bought my Talbot motorhome it had one already fitted by the PO. Very heavy duty frame and each spring was rated at 700kg IIRC. I never needed to use the stabilising arms when camping as this thing meant there was virtually no movement. Downside of that was it made sleeping policemen an obstacle best avoided/dealt with at 10mph max [emoji23]

That's sound that! As already said, there's a lot worse ancient motorhomes out there, for a lot more ££. You threw the dice & won. Well done!

Similar... except we don't have them standing at the front of the house at least. That's outrageous. I used to enjoy an occasional smoke back in the day, but I never smelt anything so pungent as what seems to be normal now. God knows what it's doing to their brains... as you say it tastes bad on the air. In a great victory for town planning we have 10 gardens directly behind us and so on a sunny day with an easterly wind our house gets overwhelmed by their bbq and stoner smoke. We are in a single room deep double fronter so there's literally no escape from it in those conditions. I suspect we are far from the only people suffering this problem right now [emoji853]
