Luckily she’s not volunteering me for moving things as my vans racked out but mainly as it’s fooked and off the road and I can’t carry things in the landy as it won’t make it there in one piece

Thanks, @Kernite I think I'll need a replacement case too. The old one is pretty f*c!'d and I hadn't thought about looking for a replacement.
I feel your pain. SWMBO has the same habit.Don’t you just love a volunteering wife I have one of those mainly because I have a van …oh Paul will do it he has a van ,oh really yes he will

Yesterday picked up an old trailer from a friend. He bought it for tip runs and things. He's used and abused it then the neck snapped. Now it's mine. Needs neck welding back on and made a bit more meaty. Replace the rear lenses, two new tyres and jobs a good un for more abuse.

Couple of years ago I lost two sets of pliers in the space of a month. Neither pair has turned up yet. I think I left a set on my rear crossmember before I had it replaced so either the welder found them or they bounced off on the journey down. Who knows where the other set went.
bought a diesel injector seat cutter from amazon as i'm planning to fit new copper washers just so i know they been done,
also got some prosport gauges in the cart cos i have a very strong desire to know i got oil pressure but not pressed buy now yet so shouldn't have posted this bit!

That'll get you through the Labour budget.

Galvanised chassis and Bulkhead. I've been dithering on the garage clear-out and Defender rebuild so I've placed the order - bit of a motivator to get it all sorted! I'll ring them Monday and see if they can hold off until after the 17th to give me some wriggle room time wise.
Tad excited I must admit!

which one did you order?

I went with Shielder. I've spent months reading reviews and watching YouTube rebuilds. They all seem to have pros and cons. The fact I could get the right year bulkhead with puma style vents was a big plus for me. I am fed up to my ears with leaky noisy vents but didn't want to modify a puma bulkhead to suit my defender.
Another 10 gallons of 20/50. Much cheaper buying in bulk.
My oil arrived. Thing is, they sent me 5 litres of 75W-90 instead of the 20/50 I ordered.
Very helpful on the phone, I may get to.keep the 75-90... Not that it's of use to me. Son might use it. New delivery midweek-ish... My Saturday morning just came free!
No safety helmet then...?

Oh the irony I gave away a Petzel helmet with integrated visor last week, in the van is another Petzel hardhat with chin strap and over storage I have at least 4 climbing helmets, any one of those would have saved my bonce!
In all seriousness I am considering those inserts for baseball style caps.
....another wrecked Alpine W990BT head unit
