Looks like the war will have to be cancelled there's no way the MODs budget will stretch to paying a clamp removal fee and we all know the law says you may not damage a clamp in order to remove it.

Iain Duncan Smith throws a sheep in a swamp so Cameron can get good press for a change.
When questioned, Mr Duncan Smith said "The animal wasn't working, its food was being paid for by a hardworking taxpayer and it had room for 3 additional cows in its barn. Leaving it to sink or swim on its own was the only thing to do".

I thought I had a big electrical problem on the old Ford, and as the norm with all things electrical, it would be a bugger to trace it. Relays, motors and as usual the multimeter will be involved..finally built up the patience to have a look..it turned out that the fuse had fallen out!
Ah, the relief!

Oh no, I'm getting automotive itchy feet. This does not bode well. Anyone fancy swappage with a Tolly?
