Another one i must resist
I’ve seriously had to have a word with myself. I work away from home and I don’t think that helps as I have time to look at stuff and have no one to talk me out of these things, but I’ve recently been offered a Leyland at what seemingly is an absolute bargain, and thought oow interesting. Yes I know a Leyland????
Thing is I’m struggling with space and Mrs Dezzy would probably not be quite so keen on it outside the house (the kids would love it though) It’s a part of history something that needs preserving for future generations to see, it would have been a part of many men’s lives and loved by them, it is after all a veteran and should receive the respect that it deserves. See here I go again, it’s not normal behaviour I’m bordering on being a mental case I think…. The Leyland Martian (the actual one for sale) and a stock photo of one working hard

Build a ramp for the back dezzy and you could garage the Landie in there saving space.

Owww a mobile workshop and garaging facility great thinking Mike.
This is difficult because i'm sure what it's offered for can't be a long way off scrap value and i don't think you'd ever loose money on it, but on the same hand i like the soft, dangly collection of objects between my legs to stay there.

I just get stuff and when the missus says "when/where/how/why?" or words to that effect I just feign surprise and say I've had that for ages
Actually she doesn't mind as long as she gets her Holidays with her pals out of my way
