I did check those out before I moaned, and was still giving him the benifit of doubt, but they have a very course thread, and still require a pilot hole. The screws he used look just like normal countersunk wood screws... plus, many of them have not bitten in, so just turn and pull out of the...

Very true... To be honest, I think my joints would have suffered less if I had done it myself, as re-doing the work that was done badly has taken more work anyway. The main problem was, having never seen a kitchen fitted, I was at a loss of where to start, but with what I know now, I would be...

Cheers, to be honest, we thought that was the type of builder we had, we showed him the plans, told him all the potential issues, like the walls are not square etc, and were prepared to pay him on the time taken, so he was not even working to a budget. I have been doing more work out there...

I just had to look up the "chicken" tiles, and I think I can see a sort of bird, but not 100% sure.... I am pretty sure my mum and dad had those tiles in blue, in the kitchen, and because some had an edge, the ones over the window were upside dpwn, which used to bug me, but I only noticed it by...

We have lived in this house for 19 years, and when we moved in, the kitchen had been done a few years before, but was in lovely condition, and to our taste. Over the years, it's got old, coupled with a burst pipe, which got into the chipboard of the cabinets, and caused them to expand, so it was...

On my WK2, I have the push button start, and it's strange, as it hardly gives the glowplugs anytime at all. Sometimes it even starts before all the dash lights have finished their self test. There does not seem to be any way to wait until the glowplug light goes out, as all you do is put your...

Does your Jeep tell you the average on the dash, or did you work it out by topping the tank? I have noticed with mine that when the tank is full, it shows less mpg than when it is empty. Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

That's such good news Jim... Fingers are still crossed.:thumb2

When I was "Road Raged" in Croydon, there were 3 of us in the car. After the event, we followed the car for several miles giving a running commentary to the police, who finally forced them off the road, and caught them. We all went off to Croydon police station, and owing to my injuries, I was...

I would go for higher rated springs... They are actually pretty easy to swap out. I fitted them to mine, and never looked back, although I did go for a 2" lift, so fitted longer shocks as well. When towing, we usually fold the rear seats down, then load it up with 12 ferrets, in 2 cages on a...

I honestly think the T2 is the best tug I have ever used. Having used several Volvos, a car that won countless towing awards, I feel the T2 was infinitely better, but the JGC is up there with it. Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

I did wonder if I had removed the pin, if I would have been ok, but at £300 odd a time for the Alko coupling, I was not willing to risk it a second time... not to mention Suz was very unhappy about the whole incident, so I needed to be able to reassure her everything was now perfect. The...

You may want to read the "Lazy Ferret" thread you started, I put my woes on using the wrong one in there. I have always used a dixon bate (ball and pin) type coupling, but hit big problems when I changed to the Jeep. You can actually buy a Dixon Bate ball and pin designed for Alko couplings...

An honourable place for it.. :D Maybe a Trailmaster one.

Looks good, does the snorkel go on the left or right? :thumb2

I think we are just going to close and lock the front door, and spend a weekend in natural silence, free from builders, plumbers, kitchen fitters, and powertools... Spend some quality time with the poor ferrets that have had to be caged for the last 3 weeks. Poor guys think they have done...

Looking good... Hope you enjoy it as much as I am enjoying my WK2 :thumb2

It's fantastic... Just the driver has let it down a bit. Poxy Aldi carpark has some short bollards in front of the lamp posts on the pavement, but the bollards are about 6 inches into the parking space. The parking sensor picks up on the curb, as it is high, so I was using the reversing camera...

Cheers. It's a way off yet, but we are looking. Just need to finish getting this place up to scratch, then just as we finally have it as we want it, it will be time to move... we are thinking of it as a practice run. Lol Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

Thats the same one as we have... We have had it for about 5 years, and had just one problem, where the cooling fan packed up. I replaced it with a computer fan, but other than that it's been great. We often use it for 3 weeks at a time, and we are currently using it in the house, while the...
