I liked the Google Translate version.

I'm not sure Bede would have intended to say that!

It's even funnier if you set the language on the left box to Greek instead of Latin, then it reads the original line one character at a time in the voice of the late Mrs Thatcher instead of that rather foxy Latino chick!

Πεδικάβο ση νων εαμ νος σικ ρεφικερε νυλλα αλία ποσσιτ

even though im a firm believer football is a game for 3 year old girls & men of an effeminate persuasion cantona is one of my heros
i tried google translate on you john & it didnt work

starter is fitted & truck is running fine now... bit of a nuisance ive lost the radio code...

Hi Rich, if you have the pins / 4 flat key things to pop the stereo out then I can sort you out with the code. if your stereo is one of the rectangular ones (with square corners not round ones) and needs the flat keys DO NOT try pushing screwdrivers / anything else in as all that will happen is you damage the plastic. I paid £1.99 for my set of keys on ebay a while ago.

Hi terry, its the same radio as in wifeys galaxy... ill have a look at getting it out tomorrow.. ill also be stripping the roof lining out as we had rain today for the first time in 3 months & now the roof is leaking, on my head
got the flashing lights working too! did away with the scotch lock thing & soldered the joint properly

So you have a soldering iron but not a multi-meter :S

put on your spurs, grab your calking gun and bung some bathroom sealant around all the lights on the roof

multi meter blew up.. i didnt really know how to use it

bit of good news taken the radio out & some sensible person had written the code on the top
also taken the flashing lights off the roof which revealed 4 leaks... now do i bung the holes up with bolts washers & a sealer or put the lights back on????

Perhaps blanking grommets or pop rivets and penny washers would be a better way to seal the holes. I once worked for a place that had a Bedford CF recovery truck that had two beacons on the roof. They obviously lacked suitable bolts as they had put M6 x 50mm bolts in. It was dangerous enough to "jump" in the cab without thinking, let alone what may have happened in an accident!
