Gulling it today

Any Barchetta fans would have been in heaven at my cafe stop in the Cotswolds on Saturday.

Look like they all turned up no?

Sweet, that’s only half hour away.

Horn

on the light / indicator / screenwash stalk. still is, to this day.

Not mine! It’s on a random button, but you have to have enabled a rocker switch powering the horn, fuel and temp gauges. And then turn it off again, as it’s independent of the ignition, so you don’t drain the battery.

Haha yeah not sure 🤔

I’m near Hertford, Herts. Not sure if that’s any good for you guys? I’d love to but be warned i’m a total novice, cautious Dad. Ain’t got a winch neither but I s’pose if someone else has its probably okay.

Friend said “get a lighter and melt it back together.”

And I suppose if your friend said put your head in the oven, you’d do that too?

I’m another no digger. I had little choice since I wanted to establish a polytunnel and veg patch on old pasture. Year 1 but working great, will post pics tmrw. YouTube Charles Dowding as others have mentioned and you seem thirsty would you care for a glass of Kool Aid?

Swapped the 12” lipstick Mountney for a 15” three-spoke. Drives sooo much better, like not pumping iron! 17” is standard but it does encroach on knee and elbow room from memory.

Broke my off-roading cherry too. Straight through our fucking garden pond. Yesss.

That is quite something. Congrats!

Show us already!!!

Lets just say I am still within ‘budget’, although not much to spare!
It was 450 with a mouse and keyboard. You can get an older lower spec one 8mb for about £300

Purchases have been made to kick off my multiroom home media server project.
Mac mini 2014 2.6ghz 16gb with 1TB Fusion Drive plus a couple of Chromecast Audios for messing with.
Looking forward to the tinkering.

I use and abuse that Mora you pictured around the garden. I don’t mind having it clipped to my belt all day. It’s sturdy in a way no folder I’ve ever had is. I often smack it with things like hammers to get it to cut through heavy things. Love it.

Bravo!

you might get away with a small elevation head with porous trickling constantly. It wouldn’t drive a sprinkler head though.

It was an eBay thing, can fish the link out. 100m porous pipe kit. How will you generate the pressure from your IBC? I reckon you need 0.5 bar minimum (mines limited to 0.7 off mains)

Started spending money on the Landy. Fuel cap had no gasket, rattled in its seat and smelt of unleaded from ten paces. £3 to sort.

No plans to change, it’s lovely. You really don’t want to go fast in this!

It’s the 2.25 petrol. Runs sweet, quite willing with a twin-choke Weber and nice burbly rasp through the exhaust.

Seller made a vid, for shits and giggles:

The cabin idiosyncrasies include a 12” red leather Mountney, which makes driving quite a physical experience. And of course the paint-pot mounted temp gauge - a rare factory option.

Not massively thorough. I don’t mind trying to fix mechanical stuff so I just checked the basics. I don’t do welding so I did look underneath, footwells and bulkhead pretty good. There’s some rust but not too bad.

Hiya, yeah I used some - maybe around 15% from memory, and it added a generally pleasant taste and texture. But, it doesn’t have much sugar left in it and mainly adds roughage. Some of the husks were a bit glassy and didn’t make for great eating. Worth an experiment though!

Thanks! Well, nothing drastic. It’s got a tiny aftermarket steering wheel which is hard work. Going to go back to a bus driver 17” number. The dash wiring and setup is interesting, will upload a few pics later. Seats are not LR and have ugly loose covers but quite comfortable. Might go back to a stock 3-seater bench. Other than that, probably nothing until something inevitably breaks!

Wow, that looks slick. What is it?
