Eco

 

[Reg Man]

I think he was wearing BS6037 safety Halo with optional wing kit.

 

[ecowarm]

Sorry , yes I think you are right, trust me never notice the halo was not out of date

 

[Reg Man]

Yes I think your right, safety Halo for 2010 I think are coloured pink. so definately out of date.

 

[quality]

Just cleared the drive to get the van off and I thought I had a nice clear run, so I thought I would give a try
Got off no problem but then slid at the to into the gate post B******D I have only have a few week

 

[fuzzy]

i think that fairy outfit makes me look fat, the camera puts pounds on me

 

[Reg Man]

Ok Gorgeous, fancy a date lol

 

[REDSAW]

Keep on diggin boys. Shorts, tee shirts and sunglasses down here LOL

i knew you will be wishing you were, good luck tomorrow.lol.

 

[PlumbBobBob]

finally we're getting snow at long last.

oops should have said oh no it's snowing i hope i will still be able to get out to work tomorrow! lol

 

[tamz]

Saves me from putting the christmas decorations up.



Sick looking at it now.

 

[Dannypipe]

Well its seriously deep down in the south east too now.

I hopped into my dads 4x4 to get to work today. My van was having none of. Saw a car skidding backwards down the hill I live on, brake lights on, doing about 20 MPH. Then crunch.

We're pretty hopeless in the snow as a nation!

 

[tamz]

The snow is fine. It's the idiots who can't drive in it who are the problem.

 

[tamz]

Well my nice icicle decorations came down this morning......along with about 10 ton of snow and 4 length of cast gutters. I think the ones on the side may be next as the roof hangers are stretching a bit!
I might be needing a plumber after the thaw

Just been out with the dogs and checked the temps on the car and the vans. Minus 16-17. Knew it was bad when my hand stuck to the gate

 

[REDSAW]

allways best to get someone in to get a proper job done.lol

got the freelander insured last night, no-no claims discount available. £0 excess, fully comp, 3 points, mrs named driver, monthly d.d. all for £205.
wonder how much with 75% no claims discount (its on the van)?.

taking it for an mot tomorrow if i get time.
tools in on saturday.

 

[tamz]

That is a good price. Mine was £390 odds with 10yrs no claims but any driver in case i need to let one of the boys out in it. (i'd like to see the look on her face if that happens)

 

[dontknowitall]

Took our Land Cruiser (6 yrs old) to a customer I couldn't reach yesterday in the van (about 1/4 mile short!). Wife's car and insurance is £526. She and me as named. Neither of us have points (me 3 about 15 years ago) and no accidents for 20+ years (she never). And we live in a quiet rural area with next to no crime. Annoying thing was this was about the cheapest quote at the time.

 

[Reg Man]

So you boys, got 4x4's with great isurance. get any where. I've got a foot of snow, unusual for southern softies, and a BMW 320 D tourer with rear wheel drive. Insurance not to bad, fuel consumption economic, but driving it in the snow has to be one of the worst experiences going. (Remeber Torvil & Dean Straight 10'S) Not bad for a car built by a Bavarian motor vehicle manufacturer near the alps?. The rest of the year its the best car I've every driven.

 

[Billy Bob Bob]

i have a diesel astra van (the work dog) crap in the snow, i have a rather nice rover 75 diesel excellent in the snow (crap for working in)
