Anyone else using the QD system? I had high hopes when buying my new Three Legged Thing "Ollie QD" but have had nothing but grief so far including my camera falling off the strap!

Just Plodding - Replacing the sink plug in the motorhome.

Just Plodding - August 2023 - Little Roodee, Chester. Coach bay clarity!

It's been some time since I did a video as we've been enjoying the new motorhome too much! This was our last stop on our way home from our August 2023 trip to the Isle of Mull which we really enjoyed. We have stayed at Chester a few times and love the city but there has always been ambiguity over whether or not larger vehicles like motorhomes can use the (usually empty) Coach bays. Well no more...

Nurse that cannot strike donates "lost wages" to foodbank

So, because less than half the staff in my trust were too afraid or too apathetic to vote we didn't meet the legal level to allow us to strike. So, I've decided to take the money that an average nurse will lose from their wages through striking on 15th December 2022 went shopping in Sainsburys and donated that amount to the local foodback donation bins! #Supportournurses

    I know you said it's self priming, but if you were to open the bleed nipple whilst the car is idling, should you expect to see fuel coming out? The reason i ask is my friends Ford Freda 2.5 diesel idles perfectly but won't rev above 1500rpm and when i opened the bleed nipple whilst it was running no diesel came out but it did stall after about a minute or so of being open. My friend did change the fuel filter a few weeks ago, but it has been sat up for around 2 years, unfortunately. Any help really appreciated. Cheers

I just bout some blue silicone Flexi hose from Amazon in blue as it makes the van go faster apparently. Now every site iv seen suggest the temp ranges from -60 upto 160. This stuff I bought says it can reach 260 or 280. It has amazing world wide reviews and I used your videos pausing meny meny time to rebuild my kit haha that bottom connection down under the engine is a right pain to reach and connect. I had to use silicone grease and a clean rubber glove to gain some friction just to put it on. I was worried about it all being too close to a very hot engine, but I guess if it's made for that it should be ok. Today my 1way check valve ( SAME AS YOURS ) Arrived after ordering yesterday had arrived so I'm off to fit that shortly and complete the circuit......
