Poor old girl revving it's guts out in 2nd for about 40 kays, sucking heaps of fuel, lucky I have a 120 litre tank.
Finally got my rs into gear and got underneath this arvo. Vacuum hose from the modulator/diaphragm on the side of the box had popped off.
Easy fix, quick drive, all good.
Will have to replace it though, a bit perished, will probably do it again.

Check your modulator for signs of tranny fluid, sometimes they suck fluid vapour through which causes the hose to deteriorate, pay to check your tranny fluid level.

So by no means do i mean to offend anybody. But its the marketing.... well we just got past santas birthday so now its the run up to the easter bunnys birthday.
Ok so maybe thats not exactly how it is, but it seems it is these days. So consumerism in place of the actual religious stuff.

Let's not forget St Valentine's arrows to span the gap.

…Hopefully 2,5mg oxycodone will make me feel “good”. Have the most uncomfortable tweaked back I can ever recall, OTC painkillers weren’t touching it. 22 hours a day of lying down in pain gets old quickly.

Brought a smile to my face. “No Warranty”. I wonder why?

So early Sept we had water running down the hallway.
Today I filled the 900mm hole I had dug in the side yard to replace pipes.
2 bedrooms had been half concrete floor for all that time too. Carpets went in 3 days before Xmas.
Hallway floorboards has been replaced the week before after 3 attempts to finish.

Nothing like a quick turnaround.
Goddamit.

However, things are almost back to normal.
And I feel good seeing that hole is gone. We have a doggo that would be silly enough to find himself down there.

Will need to bring in some more stones to cover where the hole was but the end is not far away now.
I can get back to my paving job that was left half done.

Whatever injury I inflicted on my back, seems to be fading a little. I managed the most time on my feet with the least pain walking since last Tuesday. At the lowest point I was lying down for 22 out of 24 hours. It’s given me new respect for people who push on contributing, despite serious physical hindrance.

I know it all comes down to experience, but I found relief from a chiropractor. Of course, like anything you need a good one

[Citroënbender]

100% I’ll happily trust one after a GP consultation and whatever tests/imaging they request; want to minimise risk of overlooking a left-field situation like damaged vertebrae, growths, infection.

Very mindful of my mate’s backache and gut pain that was under-investigated until he was hospitalised and diagnosed with a tumour that had spread from his prostate to ribs and large intestine. Just a particularly rotten time of year to get nailed as the usual contacts are away until the 4th/5th and ERs are getting smashed.

Everyone happy, 3.35am in the moening seems moaning

[stock1991]

I love this forum

[Citroënbender]

I let the cat out for a leak around 3:45, hence wakefulness. Then it’s always time to see what Linz has posted at 2:47AM (his usual update time).

I am drinking

Just threatened to punch a neighbour’s lights out. Probably not overly community-minded, but he has been making a persistent nuisance of himself by walking into the backyard whenever he feels like it. Subtle and repeated requests to respect private space have been ignored.

So we are past the "Peace and good Will" stage.

People walking into your backyard ? Why ?

[Citroënbender]

…People walking into your backyard ? Why ?

Because it’s not fenced off, and he lacks a basic respect for people’s boundaries.

Electrified fencing wire would be effective.

Buy a goat. Ive seen plenty of videos of goats on ropes pretending to be at the end of the rope making people beleive it then ramming said person because they were tricking.

Big rope, secured at a post at one end, curled around then other end under bush with a large bowl of water nearby.
Add to the effect by having a half eaten bone laying next to rope at bush.

Often used this technique when free camping in semi dodgy places.

Is that to fake having a large angry dog?
I think the other 3 advantages of a goat are that its a free lawnmower, fertilizes at the same time and you can call it butthead.

Sounds like you are semi-rural, maybe time for a wire fence to deter the snoop and he has to half pay for it.

Yes, bit to hard carrying around a goat in a motorhome, they might not like it at caravan parks.

It’s a quarter acre of Sydney suburbia. I try to be amicable and have time for people in the neighbourhood but there’s always likely to be one or two who “don’t get it”. The irony is that our duffer has a second property with the backyard fenced off in 1800 high Colorbond to keep people out.
