Oh well I tried. Perhaps Henry, next time you go into that workshop of yours you can fashion something out of the large chip you seem to have on your shoulder. I really can't understand why you seem determined to pick fights. Life is too short.

Oh wow!! That I didn't know. Jeff Beck was a hero of mine. I still have all my old Yardbirds and BBA discs.

Henry, I've been given some thought to your 'issues' with the forum. I wonder if you would not feel more comfortable creating a blog for your monologues. In the 37 or so postings you have made since rejoining 10 days ago you have only commented three times on topics not created by yourself. That's fine but your unhappiness with the fact that others have to 'check' your work on behalf of the owners appears to be souring your outlook. There are a number of formats out there. I happen to have a blog myself on wordpress for example. With a blog the only moderator would be yourself and you could still continue contributing to the forum as a member whenever you wished. Please believe me. I say this with all good intentions.

I'll be very good and not look it up. Who was it? ( it wasn't you was it? )

Maybe not totally over it E/T but we're working on it. 😉

Sorry the weather's been bad down your way, it's been lovely here. Just goes to show, France is a big country.

Well I, for one, am very glad to hear from you E/T. Feel free to drop in anytime you like.

Len Goodman?

Hope you have a good one and fingers crossed your hand is well enough for you to finally pick up that guitar of yours.

Wishing good health and good fortune in 2024 to all forum members young and old

Have a great one boss! 🥂

I well remember Jonzjob's pics. I wonder what happened to him. Maybe he's one of the ones that didn't survive 'death by software'.

Don't bother making me an offer folks, she's not for sale🤣

which is exactly why I don't bother explaining why a 25yr old car that has been in the same hands since new has been re-registered four times and gone through, amongst other things, two odometers. I also don't mention that she's had a complete respray.

Somewhere I've got a brass railway plaque off a locomotive reminding trainee engineers to always grease their nipples. Those were the days.

For me, fruits de mer, bottle of good quality Gewurztraminer, and the Vienna concert on the telly.

Must admit I forgot this year. Wanted to stock up with diesel so went to the garage this morning with a couple of jerrycans. Oops!🙄

My Kangoo will be 25 this year. Nowadays she doesn't get a lot of use, just to and from the dechetterie. When we imported her into the UK, amongst other things, we had to have the speedo replaced before she could be registered. Around 10 years ago the UK speedo failed. Fortunately we still had the original. Every time she goes in for the C.T. the mechanic comments on the low mileage. I tend not to enlighten him.😉

This isn't a court of law, it's a forum. You seen to be determined to become offended by the comments of others. I suggest you take a deep breath, make yourself a cup of coffee, and go back to finishing that dog bowl. We're all looking forward to seeing the pics.

Point of order Henry 100. No one has ever called you racist on this forum ( I have the receipts ). As moderators however we have to view all posts through the eyes of the owners. My fellow moderator believed that in this day and age certain phrases in your stories could be seen to cause offense. I'm sure, knowing Mr Banana as I do, he would have tried to explain this to you privately. You may not agree, but the forum survives through the good graces of the France Media group. We, as mods, can only do our best to make sure that it continues.

I suspect the problem was that your reply contained a link to a commercial organisation. Perhaps you could rewrite it without the url.

Peace and goodwill to all.

Was less than that but it's now gone up to 105 euros pcm.
