C Hasluck 18 April 2024 Hi all
I havent been on this BB for several years as Ive not been well (and couldnt get into or out of my Midget). Fortunately things are looking up and its time to get back on the road.

Paul Walbran 18 April 2024 For some time now these top trunnions bushes have been coming through with a simple parallel outside dimension rather than tapered as original. End result is a short life due to contacting only at either end rather than all along the bush.

anamnesis 17 April 2024 Yep, quality Guy. It's the video that really had me laughing. Esp' the way she keeps lifting up his head. 🤣🤣.
Worthy of a Monty Python's sketch. Shame they didn't do one themselves. A human and even funnier version of the dead parrot.
Can you imagine?
John Cleese would have said, --
"Mary Whitehouse has taken Umbrage no surprise there " lol. -
anamnesis 17 April 2024 Not exactly you didn't. Lol.
Anyway, I did, eventually; and on both counts. 😆😆.
