I have been looking at some of my recent posts and I am afraid I have become a grumpy old man. Maybe we need a GOM section on the board where I and others like me who have reached the GOM stage in life can post away, but which the younger more enthusiastic members can avoid and maintain their youthful innocence and optimism about the world and mankind!

wot o antarmike, just a suggestion what about a daily antarmike joke to cheer us old gits up a bit

i will look out for you at GDSF

as for tyre dust caps i lost all mine on my tractor at a local show, bleeding kids :argh:

regards graham

:shocked:

Hi Graham...

 

must of just been a forum glitch...:confused: haven't had any other reports of PM problems...

 

Cheers Lee

never had it before, strange indeed :shocked:

graham

Graham I sent you an email at 1338. This wasn't a PM it was a email but sent through the forum as I don't know your address. Maybe you've been out all day, but if you've been in & not got it then it is strange indeed.

jan, just sent you an email

regards graham

Graham...

 

nothing fishy going on, just checked & Jan's set up to receive PM's like everyone other member is... what error message are you getting??

 

Lee

wot o lee,i seem to be able to post on threads ok but when i replied to jan it had the options of forward or reply with quote i took the latter wrote the message clicked on submit reply and was chucked off forum,this happened 3 times

regards graham

Where's Catweasle? Has he been bumped off as well as Bertie?

 

Those two had me in stitches (sometimes).

wot o jan, got your pm but tryed to reply 3 times and failed ? dont kmow wether its me or not, theres something fishy going on me thinks

regards graham

whats happened to BERTIE has he been evicted ? as all his posts have been removed, have i missed something ?

perhaps someone could enlighten me

thanks graham

:argh: When I think of the kit lying around when I was a kid! two German feild phones, Ten Shillings! Took them to school and John Watley the physics teacher helped me re wire them, a wooden rifle rack dragged out a bunker the sand dunes. An old Jeep wrecked and half buried at St Peter's. German barbed wire by the roll, got p**** off digging it out of the feild and dumping it. A friend's Grandfarther used a set of German Heavy horse harness for years on his horse Dolly. KAR 98 bayonet, swopped it for some bike bits!

hindsight is a wonderful thing, i wish i had a lot of it :whistle:

graham

wot o rippo, my 1944 austin is bsw so i would have thought bedfords were and ive been told by my supplier of bolts says you can only get coach bolts in metric wether thats true i cant say but i tryed another place and got the same reply

regards graham

:shocked: You have a very strange taste in rubbish:???:-D

:rotfl:

wot o ed, welcome to your new home :-D

regards graham

perhaps he wants to be let out for a wea :whistle:

Hi Graham,

 

That is the complete trailer, 6 wheels, remember in those days, the speed limit would have been about 20 mph for that weight. Not really possible now, but would look good. The vacuum brake connection on the K6 is for this trailer.

ha ha speed limit 20mph i would have thought 5mph towing that with a k6

regards graham

help...... i gave my morris a run tonight to fuel up, only to find water leaking from the head gasket when i got back, its booked in for a show on sat so i urgently need to repair it, i've heard John Walker sells Morris C8 gaskets but havent got his number? can anyone help me out or suggest a solution, the show is 26 miles each way, so only local hence why i dont want to let them down...

wot o mike, i had same problem on my jeep, i had the head off and after 100 miles forgot to re torque head down, worth a try maybe

good luck graham

Is that legal? I thought UK road law says the wheels must be within the wheel arches.

 

Steve

unless , maybe you re register it agricultural

graham

wot o 79x100,

it was a harley WL..... in a crate wrapped in wax paper i dont think my grandfather was that clued up on them or bothered he prefered his ROYAL ENFIELD 1135 V TWIN :yay:

graham

thats the best looking jimmy ive seen, keep em on :cool2:

regards graham

A few years ago there was a country in which people greeted each other with a raised right hand... :whistle:

must be turning into a fifth columist then :whistle:

You would be a brave man to get a M20 up to 60, fastest I ever had mine was 55 at Brands Hatch.

richard, dad had a M21 which he did not have many good words for :-(

graham

No chance! The GMC has already been claimed :sweat: but have been looking at the M20's for while. My last bike used to do 0-60 in 3.1 seconds :shocked::shocked:

an M20 won t do that in 3.1 minutes :rotfl:

Graham,

 

Have you dug up the wood yet, might be some bits and pieces buried there. Will bring my shovel

wot o richard,

shortly after the regiment went to dieppe, grandad said they took heavy casualties and they never came back to the wood, after they left my dad looked around and only found a crowbar and an axe which i still have and a few empty boxes

regards graham

wot o jack, way back in may 1942 opposite my grandads farm is a 60 acre wood where a regiment of canadians were camped they were always on the scrounge for extra food, one day they came round with a lorry and in the back was a brand new WLA still in its crate wrapped in wax paper and another crate of spares the sargeant said would keep it going into the next century for this they only wanted 3 chickens, 2 dozen eggs some veg a bag of spuds and 50 quid

needless to say my gradfather did t take up the offer :cry: and im not riding around on a WLA (hindsight what a wonderful thing )

regards graham
