Reply With QuoteGood that it is sorted for daughter😊
A quiet farm? Perhaps using a tractor and slasher to clean up spring growth.
A small stone can get propelled 40 yards and smash the window, or perhaps the little folk where mischievous .

SupporterMy daughter and her 90 were here for a visit last weekend. She said something happened recently and as she did not want to alarm us she only told us about it on her visit home. Seems the driver's door window was smashed in. The 90 was parked in a quiet farm where she was and she has no idea how it happened. Anyway a second hand window was sourced locally and herself, the boyfriend and his father who happened to be there opted to put it in them selves. She said the hardest part was removing the plastic surround on the door push lock button on the top left of the door card. (Land Rover call this an "Escutcheon").
Her future father inlaw who drives trucks kept saying during the operation,"This is so simple!".
They did hit a snag. He said that one of bolts was imperial and he had no imperial spanners with him. My daughter disappeared and returned with hers. When we bought her the 90 I also bought her tools, both metric and imperial socket sets and spanners among other things. Her future father inlaw was very impressed with this. A/ that she had tools and B/ that she had both metric and imperial. Well with a Land Rover you never know.
Anyway they got it sorted but are non the wiser as to how it broke in the first place.

SupporterNever thought of that but she does not think it was anything malicious, but it is perplexing. She never said about machinery working nearby but I will
mention it to her.

SupporterRegarding the "Little Folk", I mentioned this to my daughter and this is the reply she sent.Originally Posted by Hogarthde
"Haha as far as I am aware there are no little folk in the garden
Although I thought my house was haunted for a split second earlier
Turned on the light on the upstairs landing when I got home from rugby and the cupboard door has a mirror on it but it's usually closed so wouldn't be pointed at me
It was open this evening and as the light flicked on I saw my own reflection in the dark and nearly peed on the carpet "

SubscriberAah, yes. There's always something to learn from these occurrences. This one would prove that your daughter's not a vampire!
Congratulations on the proposal, too.
