James May in a wood shop

[mindthatwhatouch]

I rather enjoyed it, chill out TV for after a hard day. not everything on the idiot box needs to be fast paced, shiny shiny with a undercurrent of suspense.
Norway has a whole channel devoted to relaxation, they play shows like train journey, which is a front facing camera on a train across the country. fire light, which is a fire. it's great.

here you go.

excellent thanks for posting that link. I have always found train journeys relaxing and absorbing. Scenery and wildlife , small businesses , scrap yards , back gardens things that you'd never normally see

No idea if the original 130 odd hour is available but if you enjoyed that then you may like the Hurtigruten....

Watched the James May 1950's telephone one, nearly turned it off but then realised I was quite enjoying the TV equivalent to a cup of Hot Chocolate in front of a fire.

I have to say it is a refreshing change from the majority of tv programs that seem to be taken at breakneck speed until people are actually talking over each other in order to cram the program schedule into the time limits ....crazy !?
Coupled with frenetic camera work that flits from subject to subject at 4+ subjects per second until my head spins .
Makes me wonder if some program editors don't just take a finished program thats over-run and use some software to speed it up to fit the available time slot. Surely people dont actually speak that fast do they ? :shock:

I enjoyed it. Calming in an odd sort of way.

The Micro switch just puts the ignition current to earth, just disconnect each one 'til you have a spark, then replace it.
The deck drive, brake and under seat are the frequent culprits,
Perhaps this diagram would be easier to read.

Got at least three copies of that diagram, including an original service manual! BUT if you try to follow it, it makes no sense at all - try it! Even got son in law with a degree in electrical eng to interpret it and he failed completely......
