754605 2009-03-08 08:28:00 Rat-bags like Owen Glenn and Roger Douglas devalue awards given to people like Sir Ed. decibel (11645)
754606 2009-03-08 09:14:00 I am all for reinstating the titles the left wing labor party took away.
Its part of my culture we are after all more British than the British. We aint Canadians or aussies who are just clayton yanks anyway.
Most people in NZ are descendant from immigrants from pomland that place is still our motherland.
Dont see the dutch, swedes, norwegians belguims, danish, spanish changing to a republic why should we.
Agree labour people like Rodger Douglas shouldnt have got one. He caused a lot of pain when his labour government was in power.

754607 2009-03-08 09:30:00 For those anglophilic sycophants who visualise this stuff as the end goal of their posturing, these awards may be a good thing, may they all wind up with English food and cars.
Others of us consider that the only virtue of the UK is it's location almost diametrically opposed to ours. Less of the inbred party favours was a better move, however doing good for the country we live in is not a traditional National Party custom.

Yes, and as a person who has tried to replace the brake master cylinder on a Morris Minor I know that he is an evil god.

754610 2009-03-08 10:34:00 Ah the one inside the right hand side chassis rail. Havent changed one in a moriaty but presume its in same place as an oxbox which I have done.
Not a pleasant job especially as the hardware gets rusted up from wet shoes, just got to grit your teeth and think of England.
Worse job I have ever done on pom car is Triumph Dolomite change clutch have to take out gearbox from inside the car.
I remember worse now Truimph 2.5 MK2 frost plug at rear of engine block, I was so mad I would have killed Winston Churchill if he had popped in.

Inside the chassis rail - which wouldn't be a problem except that the Pomeravians thought it would be fun to put the bolt head next to the torsion bar - so that you can't just pull it out. You have to dismantle nearly the entire front suspension to drop the torsion bar - or get some hydraulic spreaders and pull the torsion bar away from the chassis rail with brute force.

This is after you have tried to find a Whitworth socket, of course.

I have a feeling that as a knight, you will be taking on a windmill or two, Don Quixano...
