Discs and pads on the ML. Took about 45 minutes

once I had acquired a 9mm hex.

Hopefully that will also take care of the vibration in the front end at anything over 65 mph...

Then put some fuel in The Proper Car ready for an overdue run out in it.

That was the problem I had when I did my R Class's brakes. I seem to remember then needing an 11mm too for something else brakes related. 

Before Trumpy showed an interest, did Denmark ever give a shit about Greenland?   

What difference does that make? 
I don't really give a shit about a few of my things, but I wouldn't like anyone to just take them.

Well....   I wonder what the average Greenlander on their icy streets thinks? 

If Trumpy offered them $$$$ for investment, upgrading infrastructure etc they might be tempted to become the 51st state.....

The Innuit kids want McDonald's and when asked alot of them said they would take 100k to become part of America

Others are adamant that Greenland isn't for sale and even went as far as saying they should be independent of everyone including Denmark

Next thing you know, Trump will be sending 'little green men' in there, who will claim they are being victimised because they speak American (English)

Read the news, there are plenty of people's views on there.

Afraid not. He is surrounded by sycophants who believe every word.

I sit transfixed whenever his blonde press secretary comes on tv. I wonder how she manages to sleep. The pay probably helps. What is rather worrying is there is a phalanx of Trump2.0 waiting in the wings. Jared Kushner for next president?

Me too! 

He's an odious creature .
I haven't seen or witnessed a single project or decision made by himself or his department yet that makes any sense .
A man driven by doctrine rather than common sense .
Is there no one in that awful government that can pull him aside ,give him a slap and tell him to read the room.

If I ever encounter him on my flights, I'll be sure to shit in his coffee. If that helps...

We tend to stay in villas, and not many do packages now.

It also means booking flights late can be a risk, as 12 weeks before departure you tend to have to pay in full for villa.


Not a fan of hotels, particularly as she likes to get up early and sit by the pool until I get up (and I'm like a teenager on holiday )

Got to beat zee Germans stealing the loungers next to the pool!

Oh yes, my bad!

Even if you don't refresh the rear suspension, you would be well advised to replace the rear track rods as they have a nasty habit of seizing solid.

I only ever bothered if they needed adjusting, and heat couldn't free them.  Obviously when fitting new, a good coating of (proper) coppaslip on the threads tends to prevent further reoccurance.

Anytime I'm under the motor (maybe every few Months) I give all the adjusters bits a scoosh of loose oil, then when it comes to needing to remove/adjust a track rod it's (usually) easier to move.

I fitted the pedders top mounts to the omega when I refurb'd the front end, tightens it up quite nicely without being too harsh.
