Now that my morning Elbow Test has revealed an absence of wood, let me first bestow praise upon Error_404 for his fine batting performance.![bow](/inc/images/bow.gif)
Jolly well done, young man!![clap](/inc/images/clap.gif)
Secondly, congratumerlations to all those celibating matrimonial millstones, whether recently, presently or futurely. It's heartening to know that you have all been committed.
Mrs Robbo and I will be marking the occasion of 54 years of wholly acrimony when International Talk Like a Pirate Day comes around later this year ( Sept 19th )
Well, it's better than stony silence, innit?
What is the appropriate gift for this anniversary?
Novichok or Polonium?![confused](/inc/images/confused.gif)
Thirdly, well done to fatboy for his magnificent tally of 19 bazillion and a bit gigapersts.
A fine achievement indeed, what?
Today I shall toddling along to the poll-dancing and placing my ballot slip in the box, then I'll be mostly exploring why the C-Ma_ persists on intermittently cutting out again, then I hope to be attending my cardiac physio exercise workout session at the LifeLeisure fitness centre, then collecting Robbopoppetlet after school, and perhaps helping her to bake a cake.
I'll improvise from there...

Who'd loike a slice o th breast o th albatross? Yer luck'll hold. According to a friend of more generations in these southern climes than any o th recent colonisers, a nalbatross is a muttonbird you can carve. A fine 'n'salty delicacy, probly similar to a puffin.

Good luck with it all GR.
With the C-max some cheap elimination stuff.
Fuel filter
Clean MAF
Check all earth cables.
Fuel pump relay.
Not so cheap but highly likely.
Failing rectifier pack on the alternator.
All the above will give intermittent problems on the C-max

Just had to pop to Mrs B, because they hadn't provided hot drinks this time, so took tea bags, bought milk, and fulfilled her order of a prawn sandwich with the addition of fruit and a drink from the meal deal range.
Also took her a porridge pot, trying to give me some time before further food requests.
Fruity prawn sandwich? Nom! Also took her a porridge pot, trying to give me some time before further food requests.

Well, I passed my (I'm not a shovel) test to allow me on site today.
50 questions, 45 minutes to complete.
Took my time then answered the optional 5 minute survey.
Finished in 15 minutes, 100% correct answer total.
I should feel happy but it feels like a participation award. I might celebrate with a Custard Cream.

It was not actually an albatross that was dined upon, it was Albert Ross, the least popular member of the crew.
Needs must when the ship's company are starving.
What's a little bit of cannibalism between friends, eh?
Thanks for the kind invitation, paua, I'm happy to try anything once.
( but I won't do that! )

A day of investigation, firstly, how did we manage to f
k up so many parts?
Secondly, why are these shafts shrinking when heat treated?
And C), how do you get 15 parts which become paired up to make 7 parts and what should be a single part but ends up as 7 parts and no single part?!?!?
Off to scribble our big X shortly, followed by popping to the nice Indian restaurant for a takeaway!!!
