Vinta-Translate

Tuesday 21 May 2013




Greetings.........Vinta-shed-dwellers. It's me ! Your Uncle Alb tuned in and updating all you wonderful vintafake-internet-nutcases with a progress report.
Haha !!! I put some hyphens between the big words to help the lady readers with the complicated 'man-speak' (The term hyphen derives from ancient Greek ὑφ᾽ ἕν (hyph’ hén), contracted from ὑπό ἕν (hypó hén) "in one" (literally "under one")


So, there you have it ladies, more man knowledge gained, all for free too.
Anyways, I've been working on how this round thing we have started calling a wheel is going to look and more importantly how it will benefit mankind.
You know, us men have been struggling with round shaped things for millions of years.




But Jugglingtons holding refreshing fluids! Nah ! Got the hang of those trillions of yonks ago !
Raquel ! Bring me a couple of your finest Jugglings, I think this could be a long night..

Till the next time - Stay in the caves..you know it makes sense...

Chippy Chumblies lobby M.P.

Greetings to all those who have tuned into tonights helping of Vintafaker. It could be worse...........you could be tuned into 'Britains Got Talent'. and what a total waste of chuffin' time that would be.........
Vintafaker blogspot is all about real life...........about.real guys with oily overalls...........  about real guys with dirty fingernails.... Yep....    Oily babe magnets who refuse to wear Tighty Whities for fear of restricting their creative juices..........

Anyway's,  tonight your oilyblogscribbler Albert Crackleport would like to inform his digital chums that the 'National Vinegar Collection' has reached record volume. Hurrah !  
In fact so huge is the collection now that the British Chip Chomping Society have lobbied their Euro M.P. in a bid to keep some vinegar stocks available for sprinkling on their fried spuds....and of course preserving the occassional pickled egg.
Bollocks ! I need this vinegar (and more besides)...........It's a tough world out there.....every chip for himself, that's what I say...


Hey, Raquel.....Fill mi flagon with a splash of ale, and feast ya eyes on the biggest in Blighty.........
Yabba Dabba...did ya say it was bearskin time again......Uuggg Uuugggggh....

Gonna build a wheel down in the 'man cave'....Uuggg!

Greetings to all those who have once again tuned into the official Vintafake transmission channel......(obviously by accident)
This is the crossroads of civilisation....but.which way to turn now? Left or Right ?

Right - and your life shall be enriched over the next couple of minutes, slowly building to a climax of digital freedom....throw off those G4 tablet shackles and then rejoice in the communication nakedness......
Left - and the silicone chip will rule your soul for ever in the # Hashtags # of # Hell #........
.
Oh good,  you're a right turner...glad you're still with us.....
So, having recovered from the overdose of Rhubarbcideritus and taken stock of progress down in 'The Old Sidevalve Bar' I shall report as best I can remember......
Oooh aarrrr! The VBbobber. Despite warnings from the inner circle of  Wibble Wobble Wheel Truers not to handle spokes unless under armed guard I disregarded all advise...
Phufff ! Bah humbug.....Load of old tosh. Gonna build me a wheel - down in mi man cave and there ain't nobody gonna stop me.....


Parts ordered and package duly arrived contained a uniquely dimpled rim.....holes pointing at the correct angle-dangle to hopefully allow the spokes to slip through the holes in the BSA hub. Going together like Ramma lamma lamma Ka dinga da dinga dong.
Here's the spokey stick things that will connect the big outside circle to the smaller inner drum...


and heres the big round thing that has brought much pleasure to both my eyes.........just the shape of it......the dimpley holes .............the curves.......the sheer India manufactureness of it brings me out in goosebumps....


Delicious !
For all those Vintafakebloggers who may be wondering what I have on my mind here's an example of the type of thing I'm proposing to build...........

This should look pretty damn neat stuck out the front of the VBobber.....and just the job for squashing the odd hedgehog or two that gets in the way.

Now, best bit about this wheel inventing lark is ya get the pick of all the best flesh in the cave...Let's face it wheels weren't invented quickly for a reason..........
so, I'm gonna take this build a small step at a time.......don't want to be rushing now do I ?

Oy Raquel ya saucy troglodyte......splash a drop or two of ale in my flagon and throw another Pterodactylus on the fire......It's bearskin time. Uuggg  Uuugggggh.....


Until next time....stay twitter and app free.......You know it makes sense......

Albert's back in town

Vintabloggers............Wakey! Wakey!
It's me.Alberti Schwarzenegger.........back on the old Google Internetty....


Greetings to you all my faithful old digitised chums, Must tell you life ain't been easy over the last month.......
mainly due to the large volume of 2013 vintage Rhubarb cider that HAD to be consumed before the vintafaking could resume in the small but perfectly formed 'Old Sidevalve Bar'
I know, it was me who brewed it...and I should have known better, but it was by special request.
Now, the mission to reduce stocks of the afore mentioned liquid was undertaken by a band of brave shed stalwarts........willing to risk loosing control of limb and internal body function in the interest of......eerrrr ?.
well in fact, the interest was only to lift flagons of falling down juice......until the lifting arm disconnected......
the knees disconnected.................balance failed.........vision reduced to a blur......
Rhubarb Cider can magically do all these things............warning was given before flagons issued...........
Many heeded that warning.....................Only one boldly quoffed when all others stopped.........

 
There shall be no naming and shaming on this blog............
Enough said...........
Next episode - Let Vinafaking resume
