Re: IACGMOOH 2024
The modern day version of paying to watch the inmates in a lunatic asylum. At least these inconsequentials are volunteers.
The real bullying seems to behind the scenes in a entertainment industry.

Re: What do we want to argue about next?
IHT used to only apply to the properly rich, paid by donating a couple of old paintings when the owner died.
Then we all became rich because of property prices and the taxman doesn't want pictures of dogs playing cards.

If you want tyres with Goodyear written on them then buy some instead of Avons.

It'll be worse when it's finished. At least cover the battery terminals.

Motorcycle based trikes. You can't filter, you're as exposed as you are on a two wheeler and they haven't the contrariness of a motorcycle and sidecar.
That said I can see them for disabled people who can't ride a two wheeler.

If you are on the tall side look for Dutch army sleeping bags. Longer than usual and warm down to the sort of cold we can expect in this country.

Re: Buy a r1100gs that has been under a cover in the road for 4 years
I'd expect the clutch to be stuck together and be really careful when first putting it in gear. My technique for this is to put the front wheel against a solid wall, sit close to the front of the seat and stamp it into gear with the clutch in. Plugs out, a good spray of 3in1 or similar onto the bor...

Re: Find me a van then...
It ran off the 12V van electrics and had a cut off if the battery voltage dropped enough. It'd be easy to combine it with a leisure battery and not worry.
I'll try and find a link for it.

Re: Find me a van then...
My ex-BT Mk5 Transit had an Eberspacher unit that was plumbed into the coolant system. There was a timer so the van could be set to be warm before you drove off or woke up. It also had a hand wash basin and tap.

Re: I have a horrible feeling my T4 van's head gasket is toast
The prize for hardest-working van of the year Nothing to do with vans of course, but this reminds me of when I first started working on aerospace actuation systems. Modern airliners spend more time flying than they do on the ground, it can be up to a 70/30 split on long haul stuff! Took me a little...
