    I do like getting the all clear from the doctor further to a cancer scare.  Still got lots of problems in my life but at least now I've (hopefully) got a lot of time to deal with them.

  • I do like finally finishing a model kit I first started 5 and a half years ago.  It's a very special model that i was supposed to finish by the time the aircraft took her final flights across the UK

Must try that one myself, 

I got a bit adventurous last week bought some Heinz Chunky ploughman's pickle to go with some ham & cheese in a sandwich 

It's nice but there's not much in a jar because it's so chunky; it doesn't spread far,

I'm hating it without the AC 😩. At least it's not as hot as before. 

Getting mine fixed was the best thing I've done with my car!

Thanks. There were 3 of them playing around together at one point. I took over 100 pics of them from my window (upstairs and about 20 feet away from where they were) with my camera on zoom and high quality.

Had it regassed a month ago then this happened with the gas leak. Have to see what caused it.

I'm guessing a hole 😂

Common problem with ford and the welds on the A/C radiator they leak around the mounting posts, saw it on here before,

A lad replaced with ford one and it leaked again in the same place, they can tell using a thermal camera straight after gassing,

Went for an aftermarket non Genuine A/C radiator and it was fine aswell as cheaper

One of the owners put a dye in the AC system so used a UV light to look for any leaks. Couldn't see anything however next week might take the front bumper off to have a better look.

I would get the AC fixed on the Passat but given the weather is only warm for 3 weeks of the year then under 15 degrees again it isn't worth it here in Scotland...

In fact I can't remember the last car I had that actually had functioning AC that's now little we use it here!  Maybe the Rover 600 but I'm not sure.

Here in the south of England, it is definetly worth it. Even if its not super hot, the humidity makes it worthwhile and its also good for demisting fogged up windows as well.

It's also good for getting your ice cream home without it defrosting!  This time of year I place the frozen shopping in the rear footwells with AC on max and directed at feet...  I'll take the slight MPG hit to keep the food frozen lol! :biggrin: 

I do like this photo of our latest addition to the madhouse 😆

 

Not staged, just the way she sleeps sometimes.

Make sure you don't get her used to hands. My cousins cat would move her head looking at my hand whenever I try to stroke her. My cousin grew her up playing with hands. 

I do like this arriving today after winning a competition last week. 
This will help me so much when building many more model kits. 
I never thought I would win and just entered it for a laugh as the question was model related. 
It was purely coincidental that I won a manual based on one of my areas of interest/hobbies.

Plenty of toys for her to play with and chew 😉

 

But to be honest she's not been bad for chewing hands yet. 

I do like the latest visitor to our garden, we see what I presume is the mother most evenings but today we saw a young hedgehog.

Little P.Rick

I do like finishing yet another model kit to add to my growing collection. 
This time it's another rally car (an Audi Quattro) to go alongside the Mk2 Escort RS1800 I finished about a month ago.

I do like scrolling through Amazon Prime video and finding 2 awesome animated tv shows. 
All 9 seasons of Bob's Burgers and seasons 1-5 and 7-10 of Futurama. 

Amazon doesn't need to go bite my shiny metal behind for a few weeks.

I used to watch bear in the big blue house myself; was a good natured show 

Our boy likes PJ Masks these days; hasn't saw Bear atall, likes bear grills though; trys to zipline off the slide in the garden using a brush handle over the clothes line
