Re: Morning!
You're kidding! We don't often get snow here, but when it comes it comes. I must admit it was very cold today, around 2C but the clouds looked snowy.
Re: Morning!
In all honesty, we had and still have (most of it melts away right now) snow. Temperatures are similar.

Re: Morning!
I must say that is amazing! Is that your work Roland?
For a more Halloween themed pumpkin just look at this;
Some people just take it to extremes!

Re: Morning!
Thanks....erm yuk!
Roland, i was reading about problem Racoons in Germany in the newspaper this week. I didn't realise that you had them...an import from America you do without! Are there any about near you?

Re: Morning!
Reminds me of Gunther von Hagens' traveling exhibition 'Körperwelten' = 'Body Worlds' ...
The T1 pumpkin ain't my work, never carved one.
Racoons are a problem at some places, e.g. in the Kassel area. They even became endemic to mine, see the 'EVW in the broadest sense' thread.
Not to forget: Happy Birthday to Halloween kid Lisa!

Re: Morning!
I thought i'd bring this thread back as it seems a bit neglected..though it is evening! Bus got a very thorough clean out today. It took a few hours but the new leisure battery is on, digital voltmeter for monitoring charge and oil pressure gauge too.
Earlier in the week i checked and adjusted the valve clearances, tweaked the idle speed down (it had drifted up to 1500rpm!) along with the idle mixture and today i tweaked the timing a smidgin. Also used the Gunsons Colortune (sic) to double check the mixtures on both banks at higher rpms that i set up a couple of years ago. That and the messing with the pedal linkage, replacement of the totally shot steering damper and few underbody wax touch ups, has seen a good number of hours being spent catching up on bus jobs over the last weeks much to the wifes annoyance.
How is everyone else doing?
