Dullsters
Inspired by the Dull Men’s Club.
1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of “discuss” rarely comply with this rule.
2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.
3. Avoid repetitive topics.
4. This isn't an advice forum
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.
There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.
Some other communities to consider before posting:
5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.
6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.
7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with “So” - starting a post with pointless phrases, like “I hope this is allowed” or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

Especially when you've already had that part replaced 2 years ago and the rest of it is perfectly ok. VX weld the flexi to the midsection at the factory.
On the humourous side, the car now currently sounds like it has an engine much bigger than the tiny 1l it does have.
Lucky to have something else to drive in the meantime, but I do like this car even if it's getting ratty. It's all paid for, insured and has a fresh MOT - so I might as well fix it.
Aw dang.
Ha ha!
I'm currently thinking about getting a cheap, small backup vehicle. It makes it so much easier to decide to long jobs on the main vehicle if you can easily survive a few days without the main vehicle. Or just to easily get the part or tool you suddenly need in the middle of a job.
That sounds like a great idea but then it turns out that the backup vehicle also has a set of summer tires, a set of winter tires, different motor oil than your main vehicle, different gearbox oil than your main vehicle and suddenly your basement is full and you're working on two cars. No problem though, because you could just get a cheap backup vehicle....
I have five because of this. I need help.
