Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

Hope all the rest of y’all are staying warm, too (or cool, in the case of our antipodean Guardians). It’s been plenty cold here this weekend, and I spent more time than I would’ve liked outside trying to get my wife’s car working right. Sunday morning (-5°F or so out), it wouldn’t start, so I started up my truck, hooked up the jumper cables and got it going. Well apparently it didn’t like that (I guess newer vehicles with their fancy computers aren’t fond of jumpstarts), because by the time she got in after letting it run for a couple minutes, there were all sorts of warning lights and error messages, the radio/display wasn’t working, and the throttle was completely unresponsive when you pushed the gas pedal.

Now I don’t mind doing minor fixes/maintenance work on our vehicles, but I’m definitely no mechanic, so what turned out to be a fairly simple fix in the end (a new battery and a couple fuses) took me longer than I care to admit with my trial and error approach and Google/YouTube diagnostics. 😁

Anyways, I’m glad it’s back up and running now. Here’s some Lambsfoot content.
Cars have gotten weird about jump starts. A few years ago the battery in my 2002 Dodge truck died. I tried to jump it with the car and although the motor spun fine, it wouldn't fire. Popped a new battery in and it fired right up. You'd think if it was getting enough juice to spin, there'd be enough juice to charge whatever electrical gizmo needed to be charged 🤷‍♂️

Lamb for the day. This one equipped with gen-u-wine, accessory, pocket lint 👍

Bangin’ lamb, Pete. With the poor lighting my Tasmanian Blackwood Albers lamb also looks like ebony.

Things have changed since the 70's Jer, cab drivers don't do The Knowledge anymore, and can't be bothered to use Sat-Nav, because they're too busy speaking to their relatives in Pashtun, or running a second business :rolleyes: We got there eventually 🤨
Oh, for some sunshine and warmth.

Hope you get some soon Bob, that's a great pic :cool: :thumbsup:
I hope all went well !
Thanks buddy, it's the first time that I've been to that old plague hospital on the edge of Leeds, but they are so nice there. I spent 10 minutes to the Cardiologist about overseas travel, and our love of foreign languages :D He told me he could give me some more tests, if I was worried, but said my ECG results were OK, and I'm already taking the medication I ought to be, so we left it at that :thumbsup:
RALF gets the call today.

Jeremy really does great work :) :thumbsup:

I hope everyone has had a decent day :) I've spent all afternoon booking accommodation for my birthday adventure at the end of March, thought I'd treat Wolfie and Matt :) :thumbsup:

Thanks Jack.
I'm glad your 40,000 mile checkup went well.👍🏻
 
I know the feeling! Nice edc. 👍


This was very generous and thoughtful of you Bob. 👏 Congrats @btb01 Barrett! I can't wait to see what you and Matt Selfe create. Some of my favorite lambs in this thread are custom one-offs that were created in similar fashion.


I know those days well. For me, they usually don't get any better throughout the day and seem like I just can't catch up. I hope today is better! 🤞
