General Car Chat / " I don't believe it "

Thought this may amuse some of you.
Whilst refitting the engine and box into my A35 I discovered this forehead slapping moment when about to remove the engine hoist.
can you spot it?

Whilst out walking my dog
this morning I heard the all too familiar screaming sound of a motorbike coming my way.I was waiting to cross at a junction 30 mph limit with shops on one side and a pedestrian crossing and residential houses all around.In the distance I could see the bike 2up tailgating the car in front and then pull out for an ridiculous overtake.I'd seen enough and as they approached stepped into the road to confront them and unsurprisingly they veered round me up onto the empty pavement for about 50 yards then carried on down the road.
Now a lot of people will say why bother or put yourself in danger,well quite frankly I'm sick and tired of these yobs taking the mick whilst the police and the majority of the general public just stand and stare.
Feel better now

General Car Chat / Rare bumper........not
« on: 18 April 2017, 15:29:58 »
Whilst browsing the bay of e I came across a standard f/l bumper with fogs listed for £350.00 and being the kind soul that I am messaged him to let him know he'd put the decimal point in the wrong place only to be told it was rare and the price was correct.Told the joker to dream on.

Hi,discovered a weeping joint right where the mains supply comes into the house.
obviously will turn the stop cock off first,but does it look the sort of joint that just needs tightening or re-soldering?
Cheers John.
