Got home today to find my 1.3 engine that has been sat in my garden since last year has been nicked
. Aswell as aload of other SJ junk i had lying around, like brake drums, fly wheel, axle case, etc, all crap but thats not the point.
Had some guys in a flat bed come round a couple of weeks ago asking for scap metal so i suspect it was them.
Luckily all my decent SJ spares are locked away
.

You carnt leave anything out round hear, especially when they know that its all hear. Its not till you go to use something that you notice its missing like our strimmer, chain saw and spare quad bike

Cover everything in a layer of well used diff oil... Then at least they will have irritated hands and smell like cat piss

also if they come around my way and ask just best to give em a tiny bit half a carry bag full if that ,then once you give em that they tend to bugger off
and leave you alone

I have a LARGE rottweiler with
BIG ferocious teeth loose in the garden when I'm not here... Seems to keep the unwanted away.

We wish some folks would come take my Stepdad's old Land Rover away.
It's a rot box with nothing going for it. Dead V8, leaking LPG tanks, chassis is like toast. Having said that, it donated a pair of speakers and a pair of lap belts for my truck.
