Six-cylinder Posted April 27, 2018 Author Share Posted April 27, 2018 BBC weather now claiming that Sunday will be the better day. FFS! It has changed several times even during today. I don't know what to do for the best? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beko1987 Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Sunday would work better for me /selfish... It rained on and off on me all the way home so God knows. Gareth said if it's pissing down in the morning we'll do his car another time, but I'm slightly motivated to do mine now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnthonyG Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I can do Sunday as well - as a rule weather forecasts get more accurate the closer there are (my dad is an amateur meteorologist) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Six-cylinder Posted April 27, 2018 Author Share Posted April 27, 2018 I can do Sunday as well - as a rule weather forecasts get more accurate the closer there are (my dad is an amateur meteorologist) Ok the forecast looks horrid for tomorrow so I will Postpone Saturday and Make it Sunday instead.

AnthonyG Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 BTW I’ve got a Brucie Bonus for you Sam - found a 2003 Goona brochure in a stack of old mags at home, perfect for any serial Goona botherer like yourself! All else fails Eva can make a collage of ‘Daddy’s car’ out of it!!! chaseracer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs6C Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 ^^^ Good point! IIR a couple of rolls are present and correct already. The kettle to boil the water for tea would be useful though! Six-cylinder 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs6C Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 With all the rain, the field itself is quite wet, so for the trek from the yard to the facilities, bring wellies or make sure your footwear is waterproof... Tadhg Tiogar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beko1987 Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Oh that saves me having to go into tesco then! I can pop somewhere local for some food for lunch! I'm not dressed yet... Mrs6C 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beko1987 Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Another nice visit to the FoD, shame about the sodding wind! I didn't do much practical stuff, was trying to not let Eva fall over in the field, which was at full shitefest 16 wetness! Mrs 6c made a tent for Eva though I watched slowsilver find somewhere to jack an alfa up, eva sat in the digger Then we called it quits and went back to Chez six cylinders for tea, biscuits and a chat! Eva played with Mrs 6c somewhere. Now we are home and I'm reading my present from the Autoshite Mobile Library!

Six-cylinder Posted April 29, 2018 Author Share Posted April 29, 2018 A cold wind slowed progress today so we decided to have a move around. The green/white Herald had a locked brake so had to be jacked and turned with a lever so we could get the Alfa out to the front ready to be worked on. Last Autumn we pumped up the tyres on the Alfa and even put a new tyre on it, but today two tyres would not pump up! I have them off the car to sort for next time. We retired back to the house for a warm up and thanks for the help Guys. I promise warmer weather next time!

Six-cylinder Posted April 29, 2018 Author Share Posted April 29, 2018 As we all know you can trust an Autoshiter so when I was offered a good condition fully running Visa I jumped at it and signed on the dotted line, then I went to see what I had bought!

Six-cylinder Posted April 29, 2018 Author Share Posted April 29, 2018 It's not only K series! RobT came to see us and things have not gone well. He left to go home but soon returned complaining of overheating and the AA man has confirmed our thoughts of HGF. We are now waiting for the recovery truck.

Six-cylinder Posted April 29, 2018 Author Share Posted April 29, 2018 The other problem of the day is the Cadillac that won't latch its boot lid, Mrs6C has weighed it down and taped it. Mrs6C and Sudsprint 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
