    scooter/Fozzy/Ms piggy

    for those who pay attention... I have a new Series III.....

    But Im a bit lost as to a name for it...

    I was going to go scooter cause with the beady spots on the front, the paint colour and the canvas it reminded me of scooter from the muppets, then some one else said Fozzy bear for the same reasons and IVe already thought of Ms piggy for the simple reason that she has (or will be getting kermits heart).

    the pics.. I know I know I forgot to take a Before open heart surgery but relax the only way you'll know its not as it was when I got it for the next lot is urm... there will be more grease marks n crud on the body work..





    2.25 Petrol heart out... (also for sale once I swap a few choice parts off sub $300 double installed (running overall condition uknown)


    2.25 Diesel Heart out and ready to go In (sorry kermit)


    The biggest problem

    does anyone know the correct disposal procedure for those?


    and for those following the love em hate em thread, the garage where this was supposed to be happening for the last 6 weeks while I was at Tindal





    I am aware that Yogi bear would be more suitable as hes most often seen in that colour Fur with greenish shirts on But it must be a Muppet name, Specifically a Jim henson muppet preferabley from when he was alive.

    I like Miss Piggy, not because she stole Kermits heart, but














    Because your shed's a pigsty

    Regarding the BCF. They where the best kind of fire extinguisher for engine fires. Squirted in as a liquid, evaporated absorbing heat, displaced oxygen, extinguished the fire, then dispersed. Beats dry powder. But unfortunately they are ozone depleting. The gas in flat screen televisions, it was announced last week, cause 17,000 times as much greenhouse effect as carbon dioxide. Yet this gas is not included in the Keyoto Protocol, as when it was initiated, there were minimal flat screen televisions in use. How do BCF fire extinguishers campare to this gas or carbon dioxide? I would keep it, but don't show anyone.

    Nice telecom orange , fozzy fits
    silly question time, that engine colour on the heart of kermit, is that the so called duck egg blue??
    and your shed, doesn;t look out of the ordinary except for the richard gere upside down suspension device, or is it a treadmill or maybe a rowing machine, or a fancy 'mechanics creeper'
    maybe fluoro painted stepping pads would be easier, to negotiate the maze.

    In regards to the BCF extinguisher they are illegal to own, illegal to use and illegal to sell.

    Here is the proper way to dispose of it correctly.

    For all yellow BCF/halon extinguishers, please return to your local fire station. These will be sent to the National Halon Bank for appropriate recycling and disposal.

    Was this a local vehicle Dave? I have seen an ex Telecom S III around Ipswich from time to time.

    Thanks for the offer but no Im not... I'll speak to the Base firies and if they cant deal with it then I'll take it to the Ipswich local ones.

    I dont think its a telecom one as theres nothing with logos or any remnant phone gear or bits in it and Ive already shoveled a load of crud out of the back and from behind the seats.
