What plans have you got for this week.?

Lordy · 5th July 2017, 19:44

Evening all quite warm here in North Wales normally it just blooming rains, but so far so good its been nice for the last few days.
New caravan's arrived yesterday and getting shifted and organised, house has been a tip for the last few weeks. :-"

Will get some photos up when its all done. 8)

Be probeless for the next few days, getting a little upgrade which will make the backend bit more sexier and with a nice tone too it. 8)
Going for a Duel exhaust system has two twin tips look better then one. :badgrin:

While its getting welded and made gives me plenty too do at home, Think a few pints at the local this weekend is on cards. :mrgreen:
So what's everyone got for the week any plans?

Edit Can anyone do a small edit on my photo please.

Thinking of buying these stripes for the car and was wondering how they would look on the car before I end up buying them.

Off to Lincolnshire via a day at East Lancs Railway. Set off tomorrow, overnight at Travelodge then Friday at Diesel Gala at Bury. After that drive to Tattershall (Coningsby) for a week. Taking in Mid Lincs Rover Owners Club Rally at East Kirkby. Awesome event but alas last one. Pay homeage to 'Just Jane' the Lancaster bomber and the museum there.
Sunday...chill out
Monday off to IWM Duxford to get my fix of WW2 aircraft in the main but loads to see.

Tuesday spent at RAF Coningsby to see Typhoons.....

and hopefully the BBMF Lancaster doing work up flights to display. Just back from refit.

Wednesday off to Lincoln.....

And so on...

Sprinter · 6th July 2017, 00:12

Hospital appointments for Mrs Sprinter but I may get the Solvol polish out for the bike and hopefully a ride out.

Making a genuine paella on Friday and hopefully a gin fuelled BBQ at the weekend.

Sounds like you had a great 10 days holiday.

You got quite a bit on this week, that reminds when you said restock fluids for caravan, were going too need too plumb ours in and also sort out the electrics as well, also thinking of red oxiding the chassis underneath and try and preserve this one as the others we had in the past really rotted through.

Will get some photos up when its all done.

Hope the work on the 75 goes well, I do like working on My ford probe, But I miss working on 75/ZT diesels, everything was laid out for you as probes are just completely opposite, zero room too work with and just awkward as anything, I would own a 75 again and hopefully that should be soon.

I saddens me to say both my cars are looking in a sorry state, as we are getting rid of a lot of junk we have gathered over the years before we move, its a nightmare we have never had so many arguments as to what has to go, car cleaning stuff, fishing tackle, model trains, and Rover bits and pieces, you may have gathered its all mine that has too be reduced.
