Ah, nice to see you made it back again. Sorry for teasing your doggy with mine.

Alex

Just, what happened?

You seemed quite relaxed when I met you, not grumpy at all. I must have got there at the right time then. :-)

Max can cope - he has me to put up with. Sorry I didn't have more time to chat, twas a weird (short) weekend for us.

I reckon, though still have to strip and look, that the splines on the output shaft are fecked, thus the final gear is throwing force into the transfer box. If this is the case I need either:

Replace the output shaft or Replace the gearbox

I think I was in shock! One of those 'either laugh or cry' situations

- but it was Billing after all, and due to my trials and tribulation, I spectacularly failled to spend lots of money!

I also spectacularly managed to delete the pics on my camera - sometimes it's best to stay at home...

Ouch!

I was quite restrained, only spent around £150 all day. Very tempted to spend more but managed to control the urges.

One thing I got I'm very pleased with was a large Kelly Kettle, they are amazing things, fantastic! Once you get the fire going they boil in no time at all.

Can't disagree with that! Always remember never leave the cork in whilst boiling up, and always remember never leave the cork out when not ;-)

I have had a Kelly for about a year now and as you said fantastic.I keep a couple of firelighters in a tin along with it as then you can get the wettest of things burning well.I have used hay, straw, newspaper, leaves and dryish seaweed to heat mine.

Paper hanky, wiped under the truck a couple of times. This will ignite soggy driftwood ;-)

I thought you had a new fuel tank?
