I had the nearside trunion strip out .. I managed to jack it into
place, bind it up with some rope (Spanish windlass) and drive the
couple of miles home. Also had a half-shaft shear .. ;-(

I had that too. Too far from home to push it home ... the cavalry came
(Spouse on his motor bike) and fixed it at the roadside.

Bless ;-)

Then there was the time he fixed a small end (I think) with a hairclip ...

Sigh - they don't make them like that any more ...

Spouses or easily repairable engines? ;-)


Bowrrowing / lending is fine as long as you give / get everything
back? I much prefer to be the one buying the tools and also prefer to
do the job for them rather than have them borrow / ruin / loose the
gear? ;-(

Indeed. So if you share the same barn there's no problem :-)

True ..;-)

Spouse was called The Saviour of Chapeltown..

Lycra outfit and that?

LOL! You haven't seen Spouse have you!

Yes .. ;-)

What's
the point in everyone having a shredder, for instance?

There isn't one, as long as you are ok trust your 'private' documents
to someone else to shred?

Um.I was thinking of branches ... we only shred paper to use as packing.

Ah, a 'chipper' then?

Now, who has a nice quiet 2200 we could borrow?

"quiet 2200"? .. fanless 2200Ghz Cpu, 2200W Electric car, K-Tel 2200
quiet honey blender, 2200m long drop ... ?

You haven't been following the shredding thread have you?

Nope, I (sort of) have a life you know .. ;-)

shrugs he's mad ...

*Now* she realises!

All the best ..
