Ahead came back to me yesterday insisting their valuation is correct and rejecting my complaint.

I'll complain to the ombudsman next, that'll cost them more than they are ripping me off for. Although at this rate I won't be able to get another 14, which is rather annoying.

Today was thinking about crook bolts in Car sump. Nightmare coming up were thoughts. Had a go, old bolts out like a spoon out of custard. Drill, helicoil, over in 30 mins. Not often a shit job ends up that easy. 👍

I attended a craft fair yesterday with my Paracordia UK goodies.
Had a very successful day and sold lots of items :imrgreen:
Assumption is the mother of all fuck ups!

Went and saw George Thorogood play at Fremantle Prison, great concert.
May the sun be warm & shining and your roads be smooth & winding.

Lucky you Batty. Saw George Thorogood open for Joe Cocker in Auckland he was the highlight.. Joe was getting a bit past it i'm sorry to say. Joe's dancers were very not past it. :drool:
Another great day on the right side of the grass.😎

Today, just some advice, if you ever need to change Mazda 2 alternator, get someone else to do it. Nearly finished but mongrel job, especially on a 35C day.

You haven't lived until you've worked on a Land Rover Discovery.  Easiest way to change the alternator is to trade it in.....
I try to take one day at a time, however sometimes several days catch up with me at once.

Storm nearby yesterday evening.

Missed us, but we sat outside and watched an amazing lightning show.

Got up this morning, most TV channels have disappeared, internet is very slow, getting messages about trees down and roads closed,  we have power as we have our own transformer off a high voltage main feed to the town, but part of the town lost power too.

It hit a few folks places hard.

I'm sat looking at my new water tanks, bone dry, didn't get a drop of rain here.

Near me...

Felt weird to "like"  that post Tony, that's some serious storms to snap trees like that.  Hope all is well nearby...
