    I’m sorry to say that a Richmond sausage butty is literally my turn to hangover breakfast. Additive riddled white bread, filthy Richmond and ketchup. Love it.

    THIS MAN KNOWS WHAT HE IS TALKING ABOUT...:big_boss:

    i have had a Richmond sausage butty with slimy fried onions and a soupsant of brown sauce and white pepper.......my mates used to look on in shear horror (but they soon came round and it became their go to elevensises snack)

    I'm sure I've mentioned before I was a AA Patrol for 40 years.

    If everyone drove Jap or Korean cars the AA would not need to exist.

    My first choice would be Subaru then Suzuki

    i remember when i was in the car with my dad....when we used to drive by an AA box with a motorbike and side car outside and the AA "officer" was there...he used to stand to attention and salute us as he saw the bright chrome and yellow badge on the front of dads rover..:lol:

    Interesting, often looked at Subaru, which would be your choice ?

    google FJ40 ..some georgeous examples there....that will make you salivate

    Lidl 6 chunky cod breaded fish fingers (deluxe range) £2.79 + tin of baked beans 42p + 2 home bake baguettes 55p = a meal for 2 for under £3.80 and it's really nice too. Breaking news also - after Walkers had a poor bash at making Marmite crisps and ceased production - Tayto have started making them, they are completely different to the Walkers version because they now actually have flavour in them.

    Bovril crisps for me please

    I'm a big fan of a good fish finger sandwich. I think you can do a lot worse than the frozen battered/breaded fish cooked up with some homemade chips and peas and a goodly amount of heavily buttered bread!

    fish finger sarnie with white pepper and tom sauce........shear heavan...........(good for us with no teef )

    Yeah, they are nice, driven them quite a bit in Africa. 
    But, during my trips over there, I have always managed to break something on one!

    edit: not the poshest Land Cruisers on the planet in the first place though!

    used to run my landcruiser on crossply at 15lbs/inch....very rarely had a puncher...also had very good quality shocks on it...used to spend less time in the workshop than the landies....but had to let it go as the MOD wouldnt cough up for Toyota parts...only British made stuff.......if i had my time again i would make the springs softer and dip them in hot liquid grease and wrap them (put boots on them)......

    these rebuilt FJ40's are going for stoopid money now...........they are pretty tho'

    Most auto/pump extractors are stamped out of steel sheet and then hardened / tempered, Your way of hardening may work but I would only temper to a straw colour.

    :good:

    also make sure you know your steel..is it O or W...harden to non-magnetic
