--- Quote from: "missrampage" ---Wheelbearings and brakes(specifically the calipers) are the only things on my disco that have gone wrong so far, but i can now strip down and rebuild the caliper and put on a new bearing and swivel!!! oh also replaced ALL brake pipes throughout entire car.... wot a swine of a job.
P.S. does anybody know where this diesel stuff goes???? :wink: :wink:

You're doing better than me - I would not trust myself with anything to do with brakes, etc.

wish I had a lady that could fix my car, my missus is useless with everything pratical, was fun when we were younger as I could be her hero, but nowdays with a big house and 3 cars and 2 kids it is a total pain in the arse!!!
gnasha:

Bunnie:

dad recenlty asked me why i have the mud club url on the back window of puggy... surely i dont take it off road! to which he got the reply... no, only through the ford!

My dad (a mechanic/panel beater/sprayer) loved the fact I'd get excited when he'd say 'Can't go to the park today, need to change the gearbox' :) my mother on the other hand would frequently ask 'can't you just like barbies?' I was told however, it was extremely un-lady-like to go out in the back of a 90 with my own shotgun (well mine in the way it was my uncles and I used it so it was known as mine... don't think a 10yr old can legally have one lol) and shoot birds/rabits... but I liked it :) Now, being with Ste, I love the fact we have a rangie and before I was pregnant and had our son I loved helping him rebuild it and I'm the first one to be up for going offroading and doing other un-lady-like activities :wink: I think its very strange of people who think something is strictly for one sex? To look at me I don't think you'd think I was someone who could weld (ok tack stuff up) but then again people who look at me now seem to think I'm a scummy sinlge mum with no brains and who had a child for the sake of a council hose, never mind I'm actually an accountant (sorry went off on a tangent there) but it does quite annoy me that people judge and catagorize so much, surely the world would be a boring place if we all followed the same path? :)
