    Great times in fairness :D

    Did you used to have pig tails, and what the fcuk had you plugged into the jeep to run down the battery

    My jeep would never let me down. It was the batteries in OH's jeep that were not able to handle the load and faded away once the demand rose :(
    Typical - ye think ye are set up and then the feckin batteries let you down. Although Aldi/Lidi do a range of gennies from time to time ;)
