Gee mark, I love watching your videos, 61 yrs a beekeeper, I love all this extra experience, you bring to beekeeping, thanks mark, your the best🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝
Glad to see your alright. I found the cap on my lawn here in the USA
So good to see Les “Polly” Pollard. Taught my husband all about bees many years ago! Thank you!
I love that you always remain so upbeat and positive despite things literally blowing up in your face. It's a huge reason watching your content makes for an enjoyable experience, something one can relax to and smile when eating ramen for the 4th time in a row this week. =)
They probably just slammed the door shut and broke it out. Lol
00:16:44 them wipers round one 00:26:00 we are in the black 😊 00:28:58 replay of wiper all way to the final blow!😂 I love this story! 😊
Been there and done that, makes it even more funny!
been watching your videos for the last few days on my tv . figured it was time to find ya on my pc and subscribe already lol . been enjoying watching your adventures with the girls .
Laughed all the way through this video. 😂 thanks Mark. Edit: perhaps a TAFE auto mechanics class can practice on your truck?
My god, you can date how old this footage is by the price of fuel haha. Would love to see fuel drop to those prices right now.
I really don't know what to say, but I'll try. There's about a dozen things which perhaps should have been done before the key went anywhere near the ignition. Unfortunately, it's probably a bit too optimistic to set out in any diesel vehicle which is leaking coolant. etc. etc. It's a pity, because that engine sounded sweet when you first started it up, and had you found the leak and fixed it, you'd probably have a perfectly serviceable truck. The analogy I suppose would be starting a beekeeping career by simply walking up to a hive, wearing your summer clothes and taking the lid off to see what goes on inside. You needed a mentor.
…I don’t think a radiator cap is going to fix that now. 14:11
How much did he pay you to get it out of his yard, but it was funny.
What a nightmare! You got her back home in the long run though. Did you manage to get it going again?
You've cooked it mark, you never know a bargain engine may appear.
I could have swore you had a bee truck from previous videos?
What ever happened to this truck
rerun?
Did you actually pay money for the piece of shyte, or did you lose it in a poker game? And that's got a blown head gasket. The wife's going to fry pan you now.
I have bought several pieces of shit in my time
@21:00 smoke behind your left shoulder. NOT Good. 🪰 Possibly why some mechanics call 'em "Miserable - Bitchiies" So Mark - Give it your best shot to get Les' truck back to show room shape. I'll be watching whilst cheering you on. Joe S in Idaho and Alaska
