I don't see that you should lose you PC over a simple question :-?
If you was to mention trees, well that's different ;)

Yeh come TB. Spill the beans :y

I'm sure I wont lose my post count over the question... It's the inevitable p!$$ take which will most likely follow as it's bound to be something silly ::) ::)

Mind you, mine's due so I should probably keep my mouth shut :-X :-X ::) ::)

Thanks E... Still no confession though ::) ::)

If it was wheel bearings I wouldn't take the p!$$... That's not a silly thing which is easy to miss ;) ;)

Must ring up on Monday and book mine in ::) ::)

No 'silly' failures this year. All genuine failures  :'(

One of them was numberplate bulb, which was working Thursday night when I went around changing indicators. Law of sod was against me.

Bulbs just go... Nothing to worry about though ;) ;)

And I assume a Front Wheel Bearing? :-?

What else :question :question

Nope. MDTM nipped up one bearing, and replaced the other. Still a bit of play in them, but not enough to fail.
