  1. Burney, it has no shims, don’t think it came with any, I have no issues with short reach like I did with the escort though. It’s multi choke and comes with a 3/4 choke and a beretta key. Will check if I have any others, but the Chokes are Mobil fit so easy to source.
  2. I am in Newcastle but can perhaps make a run down toward scotch corner? Looking for £150
  3. Not ambiguity price to put it right either!
  4. As they say! If it ain’t for bad luck, I would have no luck at all
  5. Returned from a shopping trip with Jacki on Friday! Parked the car up and grabbed the shopping from the boot, locked the car and head for the house! A rather loud crack came from the car. Jacki thought a window had blown but I gave the car a shove! It moved. Opened the door and lifted the handbrake lever! Nothing. It’s been a little notchy for a while and eventually snapped. So I have a set on order and hope they will be here tomorrow while I am at work. Then Tuesday will be spent under the car fitting them. Just what my back needs was cheap enough though at £19 a set. I just replaced the rear hub bearing the other day too. Shame it hadn’t went before that as I could have done it all in one go. Think I will bite the bullet and replace the drums while I am at it. And nexr payday the front discs and pads too and a drop link. MOT is April so want it ready.
  6. I used to use a sealant gun and pipe it thick in two lines then press down enough to form the lead flat. Worked a treat and never made a mess!
  7. People used to laugh at me when I used good old fashioned car under seal.
  8. Burger all here in Newcastle! Had a brief downpour at work around 6 but nothing now! No winds, no rain.
  9. Irish ferry gets rough on a fair few occasions! And the last trip to Amsterdam via ferry was loads of fun for me watching Jacki turn green I had to go to the onboard reception desk and get her a tablet! First time was rough and I was tucking in at the 7 seas buffet and she had her head on the table moaning! I had to take her back to the room and let her lay down! But LAST time the boat was fighting a cracking gale. Laying in bed you almost lifted off the bed like you were weightless then crashed back and were squashed into the mattress
  10. A few well placed fast attack craft off the beaches of France, and a few small patrol boats in the channel would go well. Intercept the towing vessel and when it cuts loose and heads for home, the fast attack craft can hunt them down and deal with them! ANY boats taken during these types of exercises should be sold off to pay toward the cost of the operations. All craft carrying migrants returned to the french authorities. It’s time to deal with the problem at source, rather than after the fact!
  11. A friend of mine has just found a hoard of silver coins on his perm. He has 17 up to now but is adamant there is a bigger number to find.
  12. Don’t own a TV and don’t want one either! Quite happy with the radio!
  13. There are so many irate folk in Newcastle today? What did they expect with a huge Chinese student population? There are currently thousands of Chinese students studying at the Newcastle university. Build the accommodation for them, tutor them, but then not expect what we knew would come after the initial outbreak in Wuhan? It’s a scary prospect on out doorsteps, but we just have to try and deal with it rather than wave fingers and apportion blame. They didn’t ask to be infected the poor ****

    The same reason they need 4 on loose women I suppose?
  15. But what degree does he have in other sciences?
  16. Perhaps a perfect question to ask? Mr P, can you tell me where you studied science? And what degrees you have?
  17. Why not lay a network cable from the house to the shed? Much better than patchy WiFi
  18. It’s a difficult one! As a parent we see our kids gradually grow and innocently just carry on treating them as a child. Chris used to come along to my room on nights he couldn’t sleep and lay on the bed chatting until he fell asleep. One day at school his concentration was lapse as he was tired! The school queried his lack of sleep and he said he normally sleeps with me if he it tired! The school went nuts, social services seen it as it was! Then one day he had a disorder and you just touched his arm and he bruised the following day, he was clowning around in school on a Tuesday and the Wednesday morning had PE. Off came the pants and shirt to expose what the school perceived to be a battered child. Lucky for me his friends corroborated his story, and the doctor confirmed it. makes you wonder why schools and social services are quick to judge everyday folk, but nothing is done about naturists?
  19. The quorn nuggets done in the oven and then put on a bed of rice and smothered in sweet and sour sauce or fab! I also tried a vegan burger in Wetherspoons the other day! Blooming marvellous! But then had fish and chips that evening and a full English the morning after.
  20. Failing that, big coffee importers! They ship beans in hessian
