Re: Calming the (in)famous Yorkshire Wallet
Ay up!
Brake caliper - check
Fittings kit - check
Pin punch set - check
Just waiting for the 1lb recoilless hammer to arrive. Somehow I think Fifi is going to regret winding me up like this. At all the talk of large hammers arriving the Wallet has gone into hiding. Among the snarling and gnashing of teeth, I'm sure it said "Boobowrie."
Watch yerself, Manna. You could have a breeding population!

Re: Calming the (in)famous Yorkshire Wallet

Yorkshire Single Malt? I like the sound of that!
The pins in the calipers have rusted solid, hence the need for large hammers and pin punches.
Thursday. That's when the blows will ring out. Thursday.
Haven't seen or heard from Wallet for a day or three. Hiding? Or emigrated?

G'day Gents
We have quite a few pairs of breeding hammers, running wild in the hills around Booborowie, easy to catch, you just leave a bag 'o nails laying around.
Caught a couple of claw hammers last summer, left them in the shed over winter, now I've got a lovely little Toffee hammer to play with

Ay up, Mr B!
Not being a member of RMWeb, that doesn't worry me.
Found the Wallet - hiding behind a bookcase. It came with merely a sigh....
