1956 Red Goddess - No socks for this birthday!

Be careful letting your sheepies  go to "Gatherings" like that. It might seem perfectly innocuous to the untrained eye,but really,they are discussing new ways to get ill,or bankcrupt you. 😂😂

Hadn't realised you had modelled for their logo...You and the Healey are immortalised 😂

That would have been very funny if you had done it and were standing by to observe... I know myself well enough to know I'd have had a bit of a Basil Fawlty session before realising it was a set-up.

My sump plug is currently drip-free, which I find very hard to believe considering I merely wound PTFE tightly into the gaps without removing the plug to wrap the threads properly. The PTFE is held in place with some Bonsai tree wire just to make sure it doesn't unwind again as I burn across the country at eye-blistering speeds of up to 50mph.

I am however still waiting to catch fire.

Edit: Also, I think that might actually be me in that decal/logo, judging by the awesome nose.

Alternatively, buy some joke shop 'bloody severed human limbs', scatter them about the field and put up a sign saying "Warning: These sheep are aggressive carnivorous man-eaters"

Bit of a sad day (and a bit funny) today as the head of a local farming clan has passed away and as I got the blue 2CV out of the Volcano Lair for a run to work I was held up by the cows from his farm. This was unusually early but I knew the funeral was today so maybe they wanted to get everything done in good time. As the procession passed, all became clear as along with the herd was a little blue tractor and trailer and on the trailer was his coffin and immediate family and what he was doing was following his cows out to pasture, like he has done for half a century, for the last time. Fair brought a tear to my eye. RIP Mr. Randall.

The funny bit was, that in the stationary traffic coming the other way was what must have been a tourist car driven by a lady with friends in the back. So entranced was she with this unexpected bucolic scene that she had her window down and was filming the cows with her cameraphone as they passed. Now these old Frisians don't have many brain cells but they are inquisitive and a pink arm being waved about with a shiny thing on the end was interesting to them. Most of the old ladies gave it a look or paused, which should have been a clue to the driver to stop and wind her window up. One nosier cow however decided to investigate further and as the arm hurriedly withdrew into the car, the cow's head followed. The cow must have then decided that the madly screaming pink thing in the front seat was a calf in distress and decided to lick it to calm it down. That had the opposite effect. Have you seen a cow's tongue and the drool it produces? She won't be wearing that dress again.

As it's that time of year I ask of you the eternal question.

Q. Why do they call it the country?

A. Because the roads are full of them until the end of September.

Think I'd pay to watch this video !!
Wonder if her mouth waters when someone mows their lawn ?? lol

Ah go on, try a sump plug anyway. I've got loads of spares and some bonsai wire if you need it.


Sorry to hear you've hit a snaggage. Don't call Fubar just yet. Have a cup of tea and let the brain percolate.

if you need a pair of unskilled hands for assisting with anything simple... just let me know and I'll Yeti my way over there.

(EG: I have incredibly small hands & fingers and multiple elbows, so I can undo bolts most surgeons couldn't reach with the help of Boston Dynamics)
