so i asked my daughter (who will be 6) what she wanted for her birthday she said a tree house please. I said what about a doll or a pram, she said no just a tree house ....... so it begins first challenge .... no tree so it was off to my dad's farm to rob an old telegraph poll, cut into half (7ft lenghs) the split into 2's, i now have 4 legs i can hide in the bushes at the bottom. while i was there nicked an old ladder and a old stud wall 3x2" full of lots of nails some old fench panels at the bottom of the garden will come in handy had to buy a £9.99 gazebo to work under as it rains about every 20 minutes got the post sorted and built a base and painted in so blend in colours and will keep the rain out. i have till friday night to have this all finished and ready or i'll be in big trouble

1989 land rover 90 defender (swb) 2.5 turbo diesel. colour red, rear opening windows, 7 seats, 4 in the rear but only 2 seat belts in the back. More could be added. 95972 miles,. smokes when first started after its been left (ie over night) uses a bit of oil, but 100 % reliable daily driver for 6 months never let us down. did 160 miles in a day sat at 60 to 65 on the motorway didn't miss a beat. My father has a small holding so it was used as our daily driver and working on the small holding. 6 months MOT and taxed till the end of may, for its MOT it had a new rear sub chassis welding in. The rest of the underneath and chassis is solid. it has an electric pack, just needs a tow bar bolting on, now it has a solid rear. 3 new tyres and a new battery, the other tyre and spare are very good. it has surface rust at the rear (see pics) but never bothered me. the back door is rotten. it serves its perpose so I left it. it could really do with replacing. my Mrs bumped into a lorry in traffic at less then 1 mph, smashed the side light cover and put a little dint in the wing. side light cover will be replaced before sale. it was green at some point and has been sprayed red. It is still green inside. I took it throught a high pressure washer when I first brought it. this took small patches of paint off in area's to show the green. 1 of the spot lights is cracked. understand this is a 19 year old land rover in good condition for its year it would make a nice work horse. thank you ash 07870 385656 dubscum@hotmail.co.uk
