Tam &Toby do Europe ...Take two

[chaser]

My mates just had a Mercedes car done here in Portugal 31 euros all in.

 

[Val 3 dogs]

80 euros

 

[tacr2man]

E120 ?

 

[Just smiffy]

€37....

 

[Northernraider]

Ok I'm back from Lidl

Why they not sell the same stuff in each country ?

Ye can stick French cuisine I know opinions vary but I'm not keen lol


Anyway the wheel alignment €110
I may be out of date but I expected around €49 - €59

The mechanic did claim it was pretty far out though and said tyres very bad ( no shit batman)

This might mean something to the mechanically minded

So between the alternator €172
The discs €119
The tyres €243
And alignment €110

Toby has cost me a small fortune this month.

€47.50

Edit:
Stupid forum your last post came up after I posted this one.

HOW MUCH!!!

Someone had to pay for the wine with their lunch, I told you it wasn't a good time.

 

[gus-lopez]

& I think it is expensive here at around 40€

 

[Just smiffy]

£110 for just 40mins labour......

 

[Northernraider]

Yep I was pretty surprised but like I said language problem and necessity and you're at their mercy. Let's just hope they've done it right and it stops my tyres getting knackered.

Just as well I plan to keep this van a while

 

[tacr2man]

@Northernraider well according to the read outs they have not set them within the spec
Para says spec min 0-04 Left and same right with total of 0-08
they have set to 0-02 left and same right with total 0.04 not miles and a hell of a lot better than at start
Caster is within specs Camber is also out not changed , not miles HTSH

What is it with France and nae bins

We've just walked around this big lake ...loads of people walking dogs and no bloody bins to put dog waste in yet I'm the only person carrying dog poo bags ?

Haven't seen a lot of poo lying around or indeed rubbish so where are they putting it?
Are they eating it?

Also what's with people who scoop their dogs up when other dogs cone towards them ?

Don't they know dogs are supposed to socialise.

France is a weird country.

And I'm bored with perpignan and Stu another 2 full days to stay here yet

 

[Lenny HB]

Varies area to area, some places covered in dog poo others really clean and they even have poo bags dispensers by the bins.

Probably because of the big scary tattooed man behind the dog.

Yeah I've seen the poo bags beside the bins on the rare occasion I've seen a bin.

It seems really clean around this lake but not a bin in sight.

There's some massive fish in this lake and I mean massive...I first thought it was baby seals but it's fish and they are nearly 2 foot long.

Ok this pic isn't great but best I can do

Probably Pike, good eating but a bit boney. Don't go swimming they can give you a nasty bite.

 

[Val 3 dogs]

Out in the countryside I think it is considered acceptable and eco-friendly (even preferable) "to pick a stick and flick ", or kick dog poo off the path into the undergrowth, hedge bottom or nearby trees.
Thereby keeping plastic useage to a minimum and requiring no additional expense to provide and subsequently dispose of smelly, unsightly and unhygienic full doggy poo bags. Intelligent thinking
