Found my coolant leak[or one of them]turns out it's leaking from the hose that goes to the radiator between the lower of the two fan thermoswitches and the drain tap.Just need to get correct size jubilee clip to fit it as the stupid sprung clip affair that Vx fitted no longer seems to be doing its job.Then test it to make sure there are no more leaks elsewhere.

My school was so good you needed a judges recommendation to get in and said judge was kind enough to tell you how long you'd be there for

She has openly said she has no regrets about going,she has also said that whilst not actually witnessing any executions she has seen the severed heads of the victims in bins which "Did not faze"her.The reason she gives for wanting to return is that having had two children that both died of malnutrition/disease she wants to come back so the one she's expecting now "Will be looked after".So a high degree of callousness all round.To me she should stand and die with the rest of them.But then what of the other[reportedly]360 that have already returned and the further[again reportedly]360 that may still want to return?

Bloke I worked with in the mid '80s turned up at work one morning complaining of stomach ache at 10am he had a massive heart attack and[according to the autopsy]was dead before he hit the floor.They said that his heart was in such a bad way that even had he been in hospital at the time of the attack he likely wouldn't have survived and it was surprising he had lived as long as he had.He was 32

Found out I've still got a coolant leak HBV is dry as are interior carpets.Radiator is new as is thermostat and oil cooler.I'm suspecting though that it's the oil cooler plate that isn't sealed properly as when I changed oil cooler the grey goo I sourced from Vx dealers felt pretty dry and "gritty" so I'm guessing they palmed me off with over age stock that had already gone off >:(Anyway will tear it down again this weekend and see what I can see.

Also seems to me in a lot of cases like this people[mainly family/friends]round on the police and say if they hadn't been chasing the crims they wouldn't have crashed and got injured/killed or injured/killed totally innocent bystanders quite overlooking the fact that if the offenders hadn't committed the offence and then run the police wouldn't have been chasing them in the first place.As per title of thread zero sympathy for the offenders.

I know it wasn't the case in this instance but I've never understood why they called it "joyriding" as though somehow that made it more acceptable rather than calling it theft which is what it is.

Omega General Help / Re: insurance anyone found a broker that will take a mig as a classic car?

« on: 10 February 2019, 20:18:56 »

I believe on some classic policies[maybe all?] you have to have a second vehicle as a daily driver and there can be other terms governing where/how the vehicle is kept overnight/when not in use?As well as mileage restrictions-the higher the annual mileage the higher the premium etc.
