The good morning thread

[Andyk]

Morning Andy.
Our Summer has gone pear shape this weekend with severe storms and a foot of snow down in Queenstown.
Women protesting on the streets because of Trump the world's gone crazy.
Enjoy your Sunday mate.

The world has gone mad.........

Wonder when will be the first assassination attempt. ...... his body guards will shout.... DONALD DUCK.

A very good Monday morning to all.

HapPea Monday!
It's a busy week this one, so I'd better crack on. Have fun!

 

[drewf]

Morning all, and a mighty chilly one too!

 

[MrMickS]

Morning all,

Flipping cold up here. Freezing fog outside. Glad my commute doesn't involve leaving the house this morning.

Stay safe on the roads everyone.

Morning all, a trip to the dark side today, I have my visa and vaccinations but if you don't hear from me tomorrow those savages in Yorkie land have probably captured me and boiled me in a pot

Morning all, warmed up after repositioning the vehicles yesterday as I lost the spot behind the chip shop I'd been keeping the Frankenvan. Got to finish rewriting the welder and weld up some components this morning then out on site later to fit them.

Have fun all...

Morning, all. Bit nippy today! I'm on my way to Dubai, wearing a large winter coat. And a scarf.

Have a good week, everyone. Matt, good luck for a speedy house sale. Hopefully the new one won't need any decorating. (Yeah, right!)

A good morning to all SM'ers.

Ground fog here at the moment, should break through after lunch.

Apple Watch 2 turns up in an hour, something to play with today I suppose.

 

[GeoffCapes]

Morning all. Office this morning and then a big meeting at lunchtime at The Hilton in Dartford.

May have to leave a bit earlier than normal as the fog looks rather thick here. And will probably be worse by the Thames.

Well Alfa UK are arranging collection of Jeanette's troublesome Mito as they are taking it back as a Lemon! Just delivered a courtesy car in the shape of a Veloce with 1,500 miles on it, flappy paddles and all the whistles and bells



So we have a Bella for a few weeks till they can supply the new one.

My first mito was a nightmare ..electrical issues..water leaking on the alternater etc...it was a veloce 95bhp and could have walked faster lol.

Didnt put me off tho...QV's later still love them.

Hope they sort Jeanettes out quickly...Alfa UK are notoriously slow tho the mito they have lent you sounds lush

 

[2b1ask1]

Yes the first one was perfect until it got nicked and written off. The replacement was trouble from day one with a mystery electrical problem that dropped out all the services after 20 mins running like airbags, ABS, stability, hill start, DNA and many more besides, to kept running but failed to record any errors! Took months to find it after replacing all the ECU's the dash, entire wiring loom they eventually got it when they replaced the steering column!!! Then the gearbox lost its gate lock so you could have got reverse at any speed and had no idea where 5&6 were!

Jeanette is on first name terms with the management at Alfa UK!

 

[tess]

Sounds like my first one...Alfa UK are fab but slow luckily I have a really good garage near me ...they are italian and love alfas and look after b3 well....and make nice hot chocolate too
