Double Strewth!!

Well... I have a single flywheel version, shall we say a grand or two for that gentlemen? I'll even throw in the spanners!

Why can't you guys post the full URL. It takes me 5 minutes to dig out the EBAY site to put the number on instead of just clicking an address site?

It takes less than 20 seconds to get Ebay up and running and the item number pasted in. What are you doing Dave ?

Absolutely Dave, instead of a couple of seconds it takes a couple of minutes AND I failed to notice the full stop and it first told me there was no such number!.

URL's are good!

Sorry to have caused you such pain Dave, its just that every URL I post from ebay is so long that it wraps!

Next time I'll put both, and you can choose between the wrapped link and the number. Regards, Arthur G

That's OK Arthur, the first bit gets you into e-bay directly and if it won't recognise the highlighted wrap, the number is easy to extract from the URL and dump into the search box.

We'em only bein' picky 'cos we'em bored ;o))

Hows the lambing going? Had any time off to play with the engines?

Kim

Kim, Lambing has quietened down to an odd lamb here and there, Kim, in fact to be precise we've lambed 100 of our little flock so far, 23ish to go. So I can catch up on all the rest of my life :-).

I'm afraid my attempts in the glazing venture have been a flop so far, sorry.

Apart from starting a few engines for Jeni's Dad at the weekend and machining the blowlamp-stand casting for the Petter S last night, I've done nothing engine-wise.

I have promised a friend I'll rally something at his do in May, so I will have to get weaving on tidying up an engine.

Regards, Arthur

For me it's more of life is to short to bother faffing about copying the number, opening my browser, finding eBay, getting to the search page, pasting the number...

Edit out all the rubbish apart from the part refering to the item number. So:

Gentlemen, Have I lost the plot or has somebody just paid £466.00 for a Lister B, god dont tell my wife she will have my stuff sold in hours :-))

Martin P

Far worse Martin, It is a Lister D. I will be giving one with a pump away free later this year. (I have promised the donor that I will give it to the most promising youngster I see with a good display of an aircooled villiers or similar)
