What a start to a New Year we don't learn anything do we, Wars going on everywhere, funny (not) how we can police the Red Sea but not the English Channel, can afford to give billions away when there's plenty to sort out at home. “Genuine tragedies in the world are not conflicts between right and wrong. They are conflicts between two rights” ― Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel The Post Office scandal, Tata steel scandal, Politicians who couldn't lay straight in bed can talk and talk but can't do.... and on it goes, “What experience and history teaches us is that people and governments have never learned anything from history, or acted on principles deduced from it.” - Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel

Thank you BAZZER RN 1 and the same to you and all members of the Honda owners club. Alan

I had the same problem and sprayed 3 in 1 oil under the trim where the pedal is so far it's seems to be doing the job. I was told once that I keep my engine too clean/dry so occasionally now spray with the same oil used to use WD40 but now understand that the lubricant only last 15 mins.

Not a Christmas song but will put a smile on your face

76 same as me, maroon they were with a silver S shaped buckie which had a snakes head!! As for cars (I posted this some time ago) 1st a Armstrong Siddeley 1947 £15 !! passed everything on the road expect petrol stations!! Wolseley 6/80 1953 (around) with starting handle £45 ! Fords - over the years Consul (2), Escort (2), Contina (of course I always wanted a 1600E), Escort Van. and Transits mk 5, 6 and 7. Hillman Minx Est, Hillman Hunter, Avenger. Vauxhalls - Victor 101, Astra Max van (2) - Volvo 240GL, Volvo 740, the vans were all used for carrying my dogs. I was way ahead of my time driving Electric ....... albit my milk float!! I do still have a tax disc from about 15 years ago displayed on my 2005 CRV which I've had for a year and for a car 18 years old is something special the condition, finish and equipment would still put many younger cars to same ... and have no intention of going electric again

Sounds like we are around the same vintage, my summer visits were to Hunstaton on the Norfolk coast in and out the sea in a pair of woolen trunks that when wet the crotch would hang down to your knees filled often with wet sand!!!! Then as a teenager it wasTorquay very posh in those days, and 'mens' swimming shorts!!!

Bloody hell jimbojim you were about before the battle of Hastings in 1066 then, did you ever meet Arthur or William 😂😀

"Your voice is loudest when heard through your money"

I dearly want to go off on one but Christmas is a few days away so I'll wait till after the New Year then turn the air blue!!

How well I remember most of them and the milk float is the kind I use to use 7days week from 4.30am early start but home most days by 10.30am.

From a News report I saw this week, new coal power plants are opening weekly so why is it always us in the UK that have to change to electric cars etc????? The use of fossil fuels in increasing nearly everywhere Countries and territories with the largest number of operational coal power plants worldwide as of July 2023 and have no intentions of changing. China (Mainland} 2 new every week India United States Japan Indonesia Russia Germany Poland Turkey Ukraine Philippines Vietnam Czechia South Korea Kazakhstan Taiwan Australia South Africa BTW Brought a newspaper to day as I do once a week, I buy it to line the bottom of the parrot cage, 9 full pages asking for donations and the same offering luxury cruises and the rest depressing news bottom of the cage best place for it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm revisiting my fuse box CRV 2005, not been brave enough to put a relay where one is missing. The only thing not work on the car is the air con. Will I do any damage if I put a relay in??? I can't find a fuse box layout the same any where. Alan

After the electric cars some bright spark who has never had a real job will rediscover the Horse and Cart for roads, sail ship for the sea and ballons for air travel and with AI you won't need to work. I remember in the 70's they said that by the 90's we would only work 3 days a work and have so much leisure activties to choose from we wouldn't know which to do wonder what happened to that???

Fully agree Jimbojim, as someone once said 'common sense ain't that common. Before the last general election I had a call from someone asking who I would be voting for and I said no one and explained why and what I thought of them all, the reply I got was that I had a duty to vote to which I replied but I choose not too, my grandfather fought in WW1 father in WW2 to give me the freedom of choice....end of call

Welcome Dave MK2, not RN but greatest respect for all service guys and guys, and here's a little welcome and Brazzer can sing along too!

Take a look at the Friday Laugh should be just the thing for you old sea dogs.

Expensive week Brazzer??? total less than a RN week's pension!!!! Had the same problems with the ABS cable and Front Wheel Bearing (caused by the Pot Holes????). I'd go with a few more doubles well I did!!

Sold to the old bloke with the dog! As I'm in the same boat has you were four different make of tyre on my CRV and only doing around 3000 miles a year I will certainly be getting these fitted, around here they are £90 each so a good saving. Pot Holes in Fenland are nearly big enough to be classed as swimming pools, not only dangerous but it's casuses people to drive towards the centre of the road so another danger losing your wing mirror or worse,. Mr Sunak and the rest don't seem to care about anything for the noraml hard working people, the only time they are sorry is when they get caught out over something and then its only sorry for getting found out....
