Now lets see her get the rocker cover off, with the new (larger) pattern valve fitted...

I know. It's just that "simple" jobs never are.

...and I think that lever is Meccano

My favourite show, but I agree it used to be better a few years ago, maybe I'm biased but living 30 mile away from the place it's one of my favourite runs over the moors to get there... I and my Moggy could be possibly making an appearance in it this year.... but I'll make sure they don't cut my brake cable/pipe

Don't forget she's not a mechanic but an actress and a lovely lass

I love Heartbeat! I think the programme's fabulous, although I did miss the part when Rosie was fumbling around under the bonnet.

I did, however, hear Blaketon talking to the coppers about having his cables cut at which, I must admit, I nearly choked on my tea in my haste to shout at the screen.

Hehe. Pedant. It adds an extra dimension to the programme when you can sit at home and think, "Hmmm... that's not right." Love it.

Hmmmm.. I was over halfway down to Heartbeat country yesterday in glorious sunshine when the weather took a turn for the worse

mind it was forecast snow over the moors, not the place to be stuck and I didn't see another vehicle for quite a while... so I turned back, it can be very lonely up there this weather..

I think if I'd been in the Moggy I would have carried on but I was in my little A35..... not very good windscreen wipers..... as some of you may know.
I must find out when they are filming again and pop over to air your views

"see a female mechanic and her minor on youtube" ..... she's a star I would have been swering at it not making a flim.... not going to make the obvious heater/female comment cuz the car had a leak, it was a genuine repair and full marks for the use of KY jelly in the garage.

bet that gets a few views now <laffin>[/quote]
