Jessie The Jeep

I hope you are still bringing your Dodge!

You wouldn't believe what I'm doing to get a wireless signal right now! I'm holding a concave metal drinking cup close to my wireless internet key to boost the signal I'm getting at the tent!!!! Technology is wonderful!!!! Steve

Yes, I've done about 500 miles in it so far this holiday!! Steve

While driving the jeep over the past few weeks, it seems hotter than normal, though the gauge ( french and in funny numbers ) doesn't suggest any major problem, that seems to be around normal. My feet seem to be getting much hotter than usual with warm air blowing in through the pedal openings. Radiator has hot water after a drive, and the various pipes around the water system seem to be getting hot, so I'm guessing that the hot water is still being pumped around the system. Dipping my finger in the radiator water, it is hot, but not scalding. Does everything sound ok, or can the jeep experts see a problem there somewhere. If the thermostat is stuck, it must be stuck open as the water is still circulating. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Steve

No rocks, just about 1200 photos to bring back home. Re meal, already done that, and we have a two ring ( plus grill ) gas stove, and she did the washing up before the ironing!!!!!! She's well trained. Would have had a BBQ, but it rained while we were food shopping, and Wifey left the tent doors open ( as it was sunny when we left ) so we spent an hour mopping the water out of the tent!!!!! :shake: Oh well, at least we bought chocolate!!!!!!! Off back to the tent now to pig out. Steve

It's ok, Lynne is here with me; Ironing!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;-) Steve PS will try and get online again later in the week.

Hi all Just got to our campsite in Holland after an enjoyable weekend at the Ursel Wings & Wheels show. Pics will have to wait until I'm home and I've worked out what will go to CMV, plus the wireless connection is poor by my tent and I'm currently online from the laundry room!!! Joris, looking forwards to seeing you soon at Arnhem. Have fun all, See ( virtually ) you all soon. Steve

The trouble with your ideas Jack is that they are 1% inspiration, 99% perspiration! Steve

You BIG tease!!!!!!!!

I could spill the beans, but since I'm off on holiday shortly, I wouldn't be able to clear up the mess. It's probably better left to the 'Great Pink Nine Wheeled Orb'. :whistle:

OK, I'm doing it now. :-o

Oh no!!!!!!! I've been summoned by the great pink one! :shake:

Very smart! Steve

But I'm going on holiday on Saturday. It could all be over by the time I get back!!! Steve

It's now the day after tomorrow, tomorrow being yesterday; so what's cooking?? Steve

What could possibly be better then a pink mirror cushion??????????

A free pink cushion for every new member? :dunno: or perhaps a mini pink cushion to hang from your rear view mirror?

For it to be pealing, it sounds like it has gone on too thick. How viscous was it to work with? A friend of mine did his jeep canvas, and he said the canvas paint was quite thick, but I think he warmed it and it went on much better. Steve

It was REAL dust, Honest!! not the spirit of dust from years gone by ( though if you asked Lynne, she'd say the dust has been in my workshop for years!!! ) Steve

Sounds good to me! Steve

Joris was meant to be doing a Recon of the area today, to find a meeting/assembly point. No doubt he'll post later. Steve

Looking at the pics on W&P, I think it is AR213, a Mk1a Spit. It wasn't at Legends so I don't currently have any good pics. Steve

I always got worried when people added LOL to their posts, I've always known that one as Loads Of Love!!!!! Then there's JEEP - Just Enough Essential Parts and for those who like the car LOTUS - Loads Of Trouble Usually Serious! Steve

I was meaning email. I never print any more. Steve

I wasn't at W&P, which Spitfire was it??? I got quite a few Spit pics at the Flying Legends Airshow. I'm happy to mail a few over. Steve
