Christopher69:
Today, I couldn't believe my eyes, ears and brain when a Nigerian girl walked up to me and 'toasted' me.

It all began like film trick, I was seated at my table alone trying out a new ice cream combo at Coldstone and heavily engrossed on my phone chatting when I heard a young voice just above me saying; "May I join you"

I looked up, saw one fine looking chocolate skinned Ajebo chic and replied;

"Sure of course"

I returned my attention back to my phone as she sat down, knowing I didn't want my saying hi to her to make me come and chop gbese by her asking me to buy her ice cream(Nah only you wake come)

Before too long she continued;

'Hi, my name is Funke, and you are....?

I looked up, looked left and right then looked back and when it dawned on me that it was me she was referring to; my facial expression was like Frank Donga as I replied , touching my chest

"Hizzit me? I am idaho-ho-sa"

I was surprised at how fast I had become a stammerer.

"Nice to meet you Idahosa"

"Nice to meet you too" I replied

I checked around, to make sure there was no hidden cameras and I was not on any prank or reality TV show. On seeing none, I figured out this was real and became more relaxed

"I'm sorry my sister is waiting for me" ,she said pointing to a lady at the corner of the restaurant

"I have never done this before but Can I have your number, so we could talk later?"

I dunno whether she carry jazz for mouth but as soon as she asked that question, a spiritual tap opened in my body and showers of sweat started raining down from my forehead and I became tense

My razz side wanted to reply; 'Eh' but I realized I had to form Behind, and replied;

"I beg your pardon"

She repeated herself, this time around staring at the ground as she spoke.

To cut the long story short, she left and I later found out she paid for me an extra cup of the ice cream I was taking.

Nigerian Girls please start 'toasting' Nigerian guys too, so we can grow the naira. Chai! It is sweet to be toasted o.

Thread would be updated tomorrow, was too busy to attend to the job. Observations made about this car

1) space to work around engine bay was tight
2) engine is a 3.5L
3) engine has a high pressure fuel injectors which is different from the conventional type of fuel injectors. This means more torque to the engine. Where is that corolla man racing with a Gwagon. grin This what you need to compete with the beast grin

thegame:
@ OP, let me tell you a story.

In 2012 when I was still a youth corper, I used to escape to Lagos a lot from serving town, osogbo in osun state to enjoy my gidi life as a proper Lagos boy. Our CDs used to be on Thursdays so whenever I run to Lagos on weekends, I usually just leave Thursday morning so I can make it to my CDS meeting latest by 9. Now note, I have never missed my meeting or gotten there late despite leaving Thursday mornings. I start my journey around 5:30/40 and I make it down before 9. I used to drive a well maintained Camry 2.2 aka Diamond and My car was living the life.

Now on this thursday, I had gotten to Iwo road around 8am and I was doing about 140/50 on that stretch, heading towards gbongan. At that speed, it's not speedometer you will fix your eyes on but the road. I looked in my center mirror and I saw AN ANGEL EYES BMW 5 Series GRAN TURISMO coming behind me, it was a 530 or 535i, not so sure. I thought the guy would be with me in bout a min or two or at least make him sweat a little, before I could say jack, dude had breezed past me. I will never forget that day and despite me being a benz person, I actually appreciated BMW that day. That particular car is unique.i doubt any of their other cars could have had the guts to overtake me that way on that day due to our roads and all but dude did it and I never saw him past the next 4 seconds. Vroom, my uncle was gone.

Morale of the story is, a car needs a befitting driver. If you overtake one person driving a g63 and/or any turbo engine, you were only being allowed to play or maybe show off. Those stuff under the hood are not your mates.

Hope my story will make you chill the next time you see a solid German on the road. And just honk your horn as a show of respect for allowing you pass. grin
Homguy:
I was driving jejely when i saw this G-wag flashing me from my rear view mirror. The road wasnt so free however, but i was going 110km/hr. On the continuous flashing i felt my 09 corolla should be able able to accelerate faster than the Gwag due to its bulk, i put on my hazard lights and started weaving through traffic until i got through and floored my pedals. My engine groaned but i continued. The Gwag couldnt weave through so easily so he was stuckfor a while. The next time i checked my rear view i saw the Gwag coming with full speed at this time i was at 170km/hr+. My accelerator was still floored but this beast just overtook me like i was coasting. I felt my car shudder a bit when he passed. i already knew it was no contest at all but i just wanted to see if my driving skills might place me ahead. Sadly i was wrong.

After i saw the G63 AMG badge on it. I was ashamed and very humbled to have even thought of humiliating such a beast.


Lesson learnt angry
grin grin
OP Infact I have a confession. Yesterday on my way back from Benin to Portharcourt through Sapele , Warri, Ugheli, Patani Road with my corolla 1.8ltr 06 240km/hr speedometer. I left by 10:44am was @ Tank junction East West Road PH when Bae called me to know whats up, that was exactly 2pm.

So immediately join Sapele Road I was dusting every thing on the road 140km/h to 160km/h. Until there was brief traffic so however a Kia Sportage which has been eating my dust manoeuvred and was ahead of me. It took about 5mins to catch up manoeuvring other cars. Then i guess the guy maxing about 170-180km/h, I haven't even floored my pedal i just added a little boost to 190km/h and he was eating my dust again not until we got the round about in warri shoprite area where he gave me the horn of respect and headed his direction.

So the next chapter began through warri patani road, I was enjoying my drive 160km/h dusting everything ahead of me. Not until i saw this Oga that OP just talked about A Gwag with V8 Tundra on convoy behind my mirror in a 10 sec gap. I decided to make him earn it before he dusts me. I boosted to 180km/h again the Gwag was even closer arrrrh!!! jesu said in my mind he was about dusting me when i needed to dust a truck in front of me, i gave him a signal to the right to dust the truck when he was just right on my tail (those who race knows the feeling) he gladly obliged and allowed me (Now thats was i call a fair play giving me the opportunity play for a sec). When i passed the truck i was doing 190km/h trying really see what this twin turbo can do, for like another 3mins he was just @ my tail through most of the turns on the highway still the Twin Turbo dusted me seeing its twin exhaust beside its left back door roaring my car shuddered a little from its wind, I showed my respect when i horned twice and so did the V8 Tundra dusted me. Also I was close to their tail until i met police check point then there were lost into thin air. Kai German Machines

God it was my first time to reach 190km/h on my corolla.

Car TalkRe: Most Practical Location For A Fire Extinguisher by snipesdam(m): 3:08pm On Jan 26, 2017
Mine is always located by the passengers seat lock pin Unplug already...

This reminds me of what happened during last Xmas, we went for a visit to my uncle's wife place with his kids @ the back of the Sienna with me while he was driving. The fire Extinguisher Lock Pin was already removed and kept by the side of the back door. Almost immediately we left from the place we visited. OMO the guy pressed the Extinguisher in an Air tight environment we all came out with white faces. His dad was dumb founded and we aired the car for sometime then went for.

Funny thing was when we got home the 5 yr old went to carry bucket and water apologising that he wants to wash the car.

Lesson keep such things out of reach to kids. Imagine if this happened when we were on top speed on a single lane in the village..........

OP. Weldon oh. Your Soil seems to be Sandy clay?. Do not leave the soil surface bare. try and apply mulch materials so that it can retain moisture which your crops really need.

Since its dry out there, how do you provide moisture? And also Vegetables require rich in nutrient soils, be sure to apply compost for maximum expression of its genetic potentials (Yield).

Good-luck!
The soil in my compound isn't so great. Am using poultry manure on them. I water the them every to days in the evening with my hose until the soil is wet completely.

Am happy they are doing well.

Sirs pls as a matter of urgency, I need to get two tyres and I need a good tyre. The one I bought didn't last two months and get twisted.
@OP

https://www.nairaland.com/3441187/how-spot-altered-manufacture-date

Also to make ensure Your tyre lasts longer and avoid sudden bursts always follow car manufactures Tyre Inflation Rate (PSI)

After reading this ensure your buy a digital tyre pressure gauge as seen below.

Note Your Tyre is Rubber and It expands when hot (Friction)

If you are to Travel a distance of 200KM or more and your recommended tyre pressure states 32PSI and your Tyre says MAX 44PSI. Check your current PSI before you move and ensure it at 32PSI. Because before to get to 100km on a Hot day your tyre pressure would have increased to 40PSI due to friction.

Example: Port-Harcourt to Enugu. By the time you get to Enugu your tyre would have reach 40PSI or Over

Nice work.

May your efforts pay off handsomely.

What is the size of your Tomato farm please?

Are the Tomatoes and Cabbage planted together or demarcated?

What brand of Tomato seeds did you buy from Aliexpress?

Can you upload a picture of the sachet please?
This is the stores I bought from which has good seeds.

Hi guys am happy to share with you my little garden experiment here in PH. I bought Tomato seeds from Aliexpress. Initially the first variety of seed that arrived was nothing to write home about only one germinated after over 3weeks I almost lost hope. So this time I decided to buy different varieties so got three other species from different stores including Cabbage and blue Berries.

Its over 25 days now. Here are the pictures.

I will update you guys on its progress.

Note I have been doing some serious irrigation because of dry weather.

Appears you are getting a hang on it, but I dont think it is uhuru yet. If you flip the fuse box cover, you will see the ID of all the fuses.

If you need to replace any fuse, ensure you use the exact rating. No wires. Good luck!

Your car has been kazeemised !!!!
What is the essence of adding wire to a small fuse done by so- called best electrician in PH,doing so has already defeated it main purpose of protecting your circuit ,and why isolate the issue by removing a fuse instead of drilling down to resolve the issue.That is totally inappropriate and unacceptable procedure of troubleshooting cos your electrician are working blindly.
For your information ,any fuse removed is a source of power source to other circuits in your car so your issue seemly resolved has already opened door to fresh issues so please don't complain if u start getting fresh issues.
You're just a pain in the Ass. If you read carefully I rigged the wire, I fixed it with instructions.. Watch your tone!

I already plans to buy new fuses to replace the bad ones. Thanks to GAZZUZZ.

Intermittent problems could be a pain in the butt even for a seasoned tech.

Many factors could be responsible for this. A man who is at home with auto electricals needs to spend some time on the car, starting with the fuse boxes.

Good luck.
Thanks man I called two good electricians in PH and they both told me check the fuses. So opened up the fuse box in the engine room, pulled out the small fuses 10, 15 and 30amps one after another checking them and adding a wire to it if necessary. So I identified two fuses which when pulled out the CHECK ENGINE AND BATTERY light goes off. I think that's where the issue was coming from. So fastened it back in tight.

This was done with the ignition On so I could isolated the trouble fuse.

Drove around for 15mins no issues. Am back to base for hustling in PH. NO issues on the road.

Thanks for all your contributions.

Note it was never a ground cable issue.

do not waste your time on a scan, it will reveal nothing. Drive to the locan village mechanic or electrician, have them wash/clean your battery contacts and have them re-tightened.
Thanks for the Tip. I losed the battery terminals used wire brush to clean them up and made sure the ground cable/ main cable is wrapped together firmly with pliers. Then tighten them back in.
