    Ours loves it too, he even walked for a mile today Shocked For those who don't know, he has a doggie pushchair these days to get around.

    He likes eating it also, the show, not pushchair. What a Face










    Yes, he has slept since, poor lad is tired out.

    I was driving in it from midnight till 6am this mornng. What a nightmare. Not for me, I was fine. Plenty of weight in the wagon to keep it gripped, but there were so so many abandoned cars in stoke, and all the way to Nottingham. Sorry I didn't get any pics, but my backside was twitchin more than the capture button Embarassed

    It comes as a complete surprise to folks just how cold it gets in a car when the engine is off, I think. Once had a blowout on the motorway, snow all around and two dogs in the back. No fun sitting on the snow verge waiting for the rescue, would have coped alone but someone had tightened the nuts so tight that I couldn't undo them.

    When ever I have had new tyres fitted i've watched them do my wheel nuts up with the nut gun and then asked them to do them to the correct torque setting for me. I always get a weird look, but that is what they should do. Then you don't need a scaff tube to undo them.

    There is a lot of vibration on wheel nuts or bolts Never be tempted to grease them.
    I've seen a lathe release the workpiece because the drawbolt unwound because someone who knew better than me had greased it.
    Fortunately a modern enclosed lathe but let go of a 6 to 8Kg piece of metal at 800 to 1,200 RPM and it doesn't half cause a bit of noise.

    we had some snow yesterday and thankfully much of it has melted but my car is so rubbish in the snow its' still going to be a scary drive to work :-(

    it's frozen overnight which gives even less grip

    light dusting of snow yesterday, but nothing at all during the might/morning. Got to -3 in Stoke, and -1 in Manchester at 4am. Not bad at all. Felt a lot lot colder in Stoke coz of the wind though.
