  1. Well done all the folk fighting to right the boat.
  2. He's got a lot on his plate at the moment. Mostly elecricians tape and sharpie ink.
  3. If this is what the trailer is like, image how amazing the film is gonna be.
  4. Well. All my flabbers are truly ghasted. Top shitting.
  5. What's that absolute piece of shit pulling the Alfa away?
  6. There was three at one point, but by the time I got it the second time, there was only one. @flat4alfa also had it but he doesn't seem the type to lose keys.
  7. If I know anything about corrupt local politics, I'd wager very yes.
  8. It was green from build date but was painted blue and grey for a time in the 60s to reflect the council's livery at the time. Then it went back to green. No idea on specific dates though.
  9. Probably less, coz they can only direct you ............................ BACK TO THE STUDIO.
  10. Ok, I'll give you one pound for every Jacobs Cream Cracker you can successfully eat in one minute.
  11. Finishing is good enough. I bet that. I don't have any of that big pants money, but if there's a GO AND FUND ME or PARTEON or whatever, i'd drop the cost of a few beers in the hat.
  12. Jim Bell - 46, Non smoker, GSOH, WLTM men in Wales for bants and shit cars, maybe more. Willing to travel, open minded but no Vauxhalls. Off Site - no breakfast
  13. 14th and 15th ideally but I'll be a day visitor for either pair of GLORIOUS WELSH DAYS.
  14. Bonus pics from scenery that's deceptively not that far away.
  15. It's officially the one year anniversary of fine silvery green Rexton ownership. In the 12 months that it's been regularly zooming but not travelling very far, it's generally been a very good boy. One issue with the nearside front caliper sticking is the worst issue it's thrown up until recently. Of course, even Rextons occasionally require some *squints* main-tain-ance, and very recently it began starting like some type of grumpy french bastard. This of course, will not do. I tried changing fuels, thinking it might have been a bad batch of veg oil, but the issues remained. I tried changing the fuel filter but the issues remained. Frankly, that was me 100% out of ideas so I consulted with a real grown up. @Jimbob McGregor kindly scanned it with his olde worlde diagnostic device (eyes and hands) and diagnosed glow plugs what have got too bad at hotting and rotten old leak off pipes. Fast forward through a good few hours of fucking around and the old slut is back in fine form again. Field report from the lift, post fixing: Back on song and starting like a petrol engine again, even on the veg. While it was getting attention, the dogshit LED headlights were yanked and replaced with good old fashioned analogue bulbs. Bin. Back on form, with a clean MOT pass, the old hound is ready for another years veg hauling. Only one thing left to do........
