film review

April 3, 2010

got our large screen moniter going and have had a bit of a film frenzy recently so watched the last  terminator film and thoroughly enjoyed it story is a bit naff but special effects are fun ….. 2012 again lots of fun if not taken too seriously …. what else ……rewatched Heat cool film….. Bad Lietenant with nicolas cage which isnt as good as the Harvey Kietel version …… and thanks to lucas who recomended

 

 

at last ….. but

since ive had my ford ive had an intermittement noise of a gerbil coming from the front right speaker so got round to taking the door cards off and taking out the speaker to find that the spring inside the speaker was squeaking away so ordered some speakers and replaced them…..

aaah needless to say the gerbil is no more……

 

also ordered some goodridge hoses from ebay but the fittings for the back were not right so im in the middle of trying to  get them exchanged …..luckily ive received some info from someone on www.fordmondeo.org that had exactly the same problem so these photos are from him showing the in appropriate hoses with the banjo fittings on the rear that are no good

as this photo shows they are definately not going to be fitted as they are…

and the hoses that hopefully i will get as replacements

interventions

Anyway some of the stuff that ive done with or without help or interference….

 

balance de pneus

 

 

 

 

le remplacement des frein a tambours et les roulements sur un 306 ….cetait pas evident mais heuresment enfin les fournisseur arrive a fourni les bon pieces qui correspondent la voiture

 

Changement d’un sonde demarrage a froid sur un 306 ….

 

c’etait plus fascile avec un cle plat et les boulons etait roundi donc obligee a faire sans demontee certaines pieces mais on arrive et remontee et mettre en route apres un purge de gazole….

 

vidange fait sur un laguna ……

 

control generale sur un opel corsa vidange et courroie en bon etat….

 

mais les frein avant sont a la fin d’usure avec l’aide d’un micrometre et les documents techniques les disques est a 9.95mm et le minimum est 9.7mm donc a la prochaine changement des plaquettes il faut aussi change les disques.

Le silencieux arriere sur l’echappemnt a change aussi…..ons voir bien le fuite ..

 

et a cause d’une choc le pneu arriere droit etait change le flanc de la pneu est abime et un hernie resultant

changement d’un moteur essuie glace et le relay pour cette moteur. le moteur est situee derriere le calculatuer donc il nest pas trop accessible mais……

 

 

not all bad tho…..

anyway its not all bad the course is advancing and the other students are all good lads… with a fair bit of experience behind them so it is possible to shift through the blah and gain knowledge aswell… it can be a bit like a childrens playground sometimes but i dont get involved in the pissing about which if they’re not carefull could lead to an accident supposedly were all adults …..i sometimes wonder tho we discussed getting a bouncy castle in the other day to keep them amused but decided against it….. still youve gotta have a larf sometimes this made me smile….. gangsta gangsta……

to lighten the mood one of my old friends from blighty has been sending me some amusing stuff recently but he also does some very nice photos so i thought ide publish one from his catalogue

rrrrrgggghhhh

well ive given up trying to keep up with my coursework on here suffice to say im keeping up at college but to replicate all the information here is impossible….. anyway plodding on but getting a bit pissed off with a couple of issues that are becoming problematic for myself and the other students mainly the absense of the teacher…. who is very good but unfortunately the administartion required by the college leads him to be absent for a good half of every day so we are loosing out on his expertise and guidance this is getting worse and needs to be addressed hopefully we shall voice our discontent with the lecturer and the directer in the near future. The other problem is that it is very difficult to work on jobs because of interference from the other students who want to get involved this is often usefull and often winds me up as it helps with learning but doesnt help with gaining practical skills sometimes i feel like i might aswell fuck off home as every time i pick up a spanner someone comes along and takes over …. this again will also have to be addressed as delicately as possible as i dont want to loose the experience of the other students but i dont need to be treated as an incompetant either …….its never easy is it?

well getting up at 5.30 every day is starting to take its toll ….. knackered ….. ordered some bits for my car….had a drama over some brakes…..f..k.. french crap….. luckily sorted….. merci les gars….pings eating gloop….

 

one of the things i like about france is condom machines on the street especially these ones…..

i even heard a story about a bloke who got his finger trapped in one trying to get out the condoms…. his loving girlfriend left him stranded and he was extracted the following morning by some smiling fireman…..
