To update my thread here...it was head gasket on UK driver's side, although the other gasket wasn't much better.
Owning an Omega takes an entire man, as you know. It cost me an arm and a leg to put her into state she is now, and I had to sell my kidney to pay for head gasket fix so....I'm just a pieces of a man I used to be now...
For the first time I own Omegas there is no coolant leak
But I like her, hopefully it will last 5 more years to be a proper oldtimer with minimal insurance and used only for summer sunday runs. Then I'll have to buy something else, but untill then I really like old faithfull barge.

My tv.

Put it on mute during a phone call or have a visitor it randomelly reverts to sound.

Also - Sky Q, I have it set to a music channel all the time, but then when I have watched a recorded item I end up watching a News channel or an oldies soap channel.  Overnight I end up on a shopping channel. 

None of these are my choices.

Alzheim probably a faulty box.

Yes and I have worked on all of them. I use the same factors I have done since 96, name and owner change and now part of Alliance network, yes they are shit now.

It should be made law that all lawnmowers run on petrol.

The same applies to cars and your chainsaw.

Long overdue cut done last wkend, using (my) a feeble flymo, usually use my friends 4 wheeled jobbie when i've been staring at it for weeks thinking when the hell am I going to cut that it's too long put off cutting it. Needless to say I snagged one of them old weed barrier sheets and the blade wound it up into a rope, then the flymo done a sort of up and over death spiral like a helicopter in trouble. Mind you that's the weed sheet removed and ready to bin along with most of the weeds; good idea for quick weed removal!

I was trying to start it up after the filter change but the battery was going really quickly - as I had the radio on and off the last few weeks while working -  so not sure if the pump would have primed enough to see any leaks but would need full pressure to check.

You seriously want to risk it?

It turned out ok in the end, although I've now got a TC light on dash, probably bit of the rusty backplate stuck on the ABS sensor. (because I've not plugged the abs wires back in!)
