Cleaning flagstones

That's right, fill my sensible thread with silly sheep, why don't you! :wink:

You'll be onto tractors next.

Anyone ever replaced the injectors on a 4 cyl Massey 35?

Anything tricky to it?

 

[JoceAndChris]

:lol: I'll give you 5 posts about tractors and then I'm onto frills again.

Just remember that, when you've finished, it's best to bleed the fuel system through before trying to restart the engine, just to make sure there are no airlocks.


:lol: :lol: :lol:

I've loosened the injectors on my 3-cylinder MF135 while bleeding the fuel system after after running out of diesel and blocking the tank filter with debris. Nothing to it really, except for the palarver of removing the bonnet to gain access to the injectors (more accurately, the palarver of replacing the bonnet!).

I only hope that bit of lightweight advice is worth all the frilly stuff we're now going to get from Joce. We could retaliate with tractor photos though. :wink:

I'm glad you realise the gravity of your crime. You will now be punished with saccharine images of little girls (my friends' adorable children), frill, dolls, and flowers. And let that be a lesson to you all.


Here's Lucy with two ragdolls I've been very busy making outfits for, there's a lovely tweed outfit with a matching bag, and a frilled dress with applique flowers and hand-crocheted cardi.

Here she is again, playing with my chickens. What a lovely frilly dress.

Here's me VERY pleased with my new autumn garland on the gate, inspired by the "Make and Do" section in the Cath Kidston pages.

And here's a lovely field of poppies, my favourite crop, planted very kindly by the farmer to farms the fields around us to enhance my view.

AH TRACTORS!

 

[Flyfisher]

OK, OK, I give in. You win Joce. I know my place. :lol:

Seriously though, your first photo has wonderful colouring - it almost has the look of an old painting.

I won't retaliate with any more tractor photos, but it's nice to have a photo of Mr & Mrs phillipjuk100. :wink:

 

[FamilyWiggs]

Here's a couple of tractors for the ladies :wink:

 

[JoceAndChris]

Robin, those images aren't appearing, which makes me wonder what bad thing you've posted.

Thanks - Chris took it. The top picture and the second one illustrate very clearly why boys are better at photography than girls: boy sees nice subject and has the technical geekery to identify and attach the correct lens, maybe get the tripod out, adjust the shutter speed, exposure, focusing and flash, perhaps fiddle about with the image afterwards in Photoshop, girl sees cute subject, says awwww and snaps away, then goes off to make everyone tea.

I'll see your frilly Lucy and raise you a Doe Triple-D:

 

[JoceAndChris]

Harrumph. I'll see your horrid named-after-a-porn-star tractor (a futile and foolish attempt to make it more appealing, clearly), and raise you my new sofa, complete with embroidered silk cushions from The Designer's Guild!

boys are better at photography than girls: . . . . girl sees cute subject, says awwww and snaps away, then goes off to make everyone tea.

:lol: that's why we love them. Milk, no sugar thank you.

All a complete misconception, of course, and only a girl could have got away with such a sweeping generalisation.

[Penners]

The Doe Triple-D is named after a porn star??? :shock:

Old Ernie Doe obviously had a secret life.

I'm not sure this "girl" would agree with you: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annie_Leibovitz

 

[FamilyWiggs]

Can we at least agree that girls at better at making tea? :wink:

Of course - among their many, many talents.

Washing, ironing, cooking, cleaning, knitting...

 

[Gervase]

Ironing?!?
If I want something ironed properly, I always do it myself. Girlies just don't seem to get the hang of it. Boots and shoes the same; utterly hopeless!
And don't get me started on cooking... :wink:

 

[philpjuk100]

Ironing!cooking! I thought this thread was on tractors!

 

[Gervase]

Aw, cute. You never mentioned that your tractor was pregnant!
