Ride on lawnmower belt snappers in my case Dave, gone through 3 or 4 at a cost of 30 quid or so before I learned where to avoid. Need to get the extension leads out and cart the big Kango over to a few of them some time! 🙄

Always use a bucket, sponge, and Chamois to clean mine. But I haven't touched it since this hot weather, as soon as you wash it the Sahara seems to drop on it!

Mine gets washed every year for the MOT whether it needs it or not! Only because they can be awkward bastards over here if they get underneath it and shite drops on them, instant refusal to test! Other than that just windscreen and lights as you say Dave!

Not been in the Mischief for a long while that was the KH, some times the beer is very good that one was darker than I normally drink. A hot day went down well.

My lot were up in Northumberland the other week, and brought me a few bottles of Alnwick Ales, shoved them in the fridge. And when the sun drops pull one out and enjoy it. Bless them!
