Landy shouldn't be too bad as the switches aren't dear IF thats what it is. However its the last straw, as soon as i can find a replacement its going!!

Light Land Posted December 23, 2006 Share Posted December 23, 2006 Had an absolute barsteward of a day, it all started so well too, 48tons of muck delivered by 9am, then it went downhill fast. Not only has it been thick freezing fog for the last 3 days, to top it off today my tractor decides to lose power followed by errattic running. I get our engineer out from the yard, we change the filters and clean up the fuel lines, it decides it will run for a minute then start belching out white smoke and clattering like a bag of spanners. We decide to clean all the fuel lines out and then it runs perfectly....................................for 1/4 of a mile while taking a load out Result is it has been low loader'd back to the yard with suspected water in the injector system needing new injectors and the pump reconditioned You'd think it can't get any worse right? WRONG! On the way home tonight my lovely Land Rover decides it doesn't like having working lights or indicators on a narrow backroad - it's now been recovered back to my usual garage so we can see whats wrong tomorrow, we suspect its the switches though. Merry f*@king christmas!! \ Drive a man around the meth drinking bend that. I'm well gutted for ya mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted December 23, 2006 Share Posted December 23, 2006 Today I 'ave mainly been. . . On an aid mission to rebuild a school in Afganistan, then a quick jump over to Fiji to help stabilise the government there after a recent military coup. I had to call into Dublin to present Bono with his knighthood on my way to Cape Town to deliver a speech on imprisoned politicians. After that it was a quick stop to see Kofi Annan at the UN conference in New York to discuss policies in Iraq then some last minute Christmas shopping in Trowbridge, a Santa's Stocking run to a Romanian orphanage then home to go out for a beer.
