drillmastertommy Posted January 18, 2013 Report Posted January 18, 2013 It's no shock that a little bit of snow can cripple the British infrastructure but it very rarely affects me significantly. I've waited a month for my new piston rings and head gasket to arrive from VPW and now they 've finally arrived this happens! I've not got a garage only a workshop big enough for my bikes and even though I've braved some horrible weather to tend to the old girl I've decided to hang up my workshop keys today, leave the tool cabinet untouched and have a cup of tea instead. Maybe should have put the bike away last night too..... Quote
ggdad1951 Posted January 18, 2013 Report Posted January 18, 2013 wow! If the "climate change" forecasts are right, you should expect more of that in the future! Quote
Jeff Balazs Posted January 18, 2013 Report Posted January 18, 2013 Brrrrrrrr....rrrrr! I see you leave the poor American Iron outside. I bet your in posh shed with a cuppa wrenching on a Brough Superior or a sweet little New Imperial. If it makes you feel any better we have just come out of a spell where it was actually warmer in Anchorage Alaska than here in the Los Angeles Basin. And we didn't get where we are by liking the cold! Jeff Quote
drillmastertommy Posted January 19, 2013 Author Report Posted January 19, 2013 Frustratingly there is likely to be much more of this so we shall have to adapt and overcome. Get some planning permission for a big canopy too. My American iron is most definitely not outside by choice and I can only dream of having the cash necessary to get a Brough in my workshop but dream I will, the Harley getting covered was just me being lazy! Roll on a sunny day so I can fit my new rings and hopefully have a smoke free truck. Quote
