I've always felt there was space for Shakespear on this forum Bonz....

"Love all, trust a few, do wrong to none"

And Baz theres more...

To grunt and sweat under a weary life,
But that the dread of something after death,
The undiscover'd country from whose bourn
No traveller returns, puzzles the will

At least of we read the instructions and use the thing we shall return from th' undiscover'd country.

I guess I was lucky I have been shown how to use a tirfor, remember, pull hard on the T shaped thingy, then let it go back to near resting place, then grunt and sweat under a weary life.

Tis the patience and wisdom of the Bard

Yes, well Lynda given teh excitement of the past 36 hours the sage words above apply to more than Baz's winching technique

Ya know for the life of me i cannot find anywhere in the flippen manual where it says put locking arm back in the unlock position or words to that affect, please someone who has one tell me where it is. Ya think i was annoyed when i was at Strathbogie not half as annoyed as i was yesterday when i dragged that winch out of the car after getting it back from those mongrels at City Ford, bunch of nohoping wankers.

Baz.

Bonz..I think you're going to have to search hard to find an adequate Shakespear quote to describe the mongrels at City ford

Bonz (Vic) posted:

Baz,

Just remember, pull hard against the spring until it locks "open", then feed the cable, then release the thing you pulled hard on until it closes back locking the cable. As for City Ford....

All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players:
They have their exits and their entrances;
And one man in his time plays many parts.

Regards

Bonz, the classical education was lost on me and I am glad you can see where it fits with winching and will explain it to me over a few reds at Robe.

Reckon some will think you have written crap though ;-)

John,

Shakespeare was chosen due to its absolute lack of crap.

When to the sessions of sweet silent thought
I summon up remembrance of things past,
I sigh the lack of many a thing I sought,
And with old woes new wail my dear time's waste;

I wish Shakespeare was with me when i was at Strathbogie he might of read that bloody manual for me. Ark what light through yonda window breaks it is the east and Juliet is the sun, has nothing to do with my prob but hey only Shakespeare i know.
