  1. With the new bypass I could do it in 20 , the urge has passed now but I'm going to Argos tomorrow !!!!!
  2. Even grumpier now as there are at least 5 shiters not too far away from me and not one of the bastards has offered to bring me a breville toastie, this place has gone the dogs 😒😁
  3. Sorry, I had a bit of a stutter
  4. I wish someone did home delivery breville sandwiches, no fucker eats them all the time but everyone gets a craving sometime, yeah that's me tonight and we threw our breville out a year ago
  5. I did Aer lingus Manchester to NYC + return, was faultless and £350 all in, would do again
  6. /\ I near had a coronary from laughing at a pair of German magicians at a hotel in Lanzarote a few years ago, Kraut guests were not impressed
  7. I've used copper heating pipe for fuel hard lines in the past, very easy to manipulate and can't think of any reason why it would not be advisable
  8. I always list boxes as a DC motor and disguise it with cardboard
  9. As some may know I used to be the North Wests leading purveyor of Vauxhall Omega parts, in particular manual gearbox models, I've not done any for a couple of years as they are pretty much extinct . Whilst siting at my desk this afternoon I looked wistfully through the window at the park opposite and was greeted by the rather unusual sight of 2 policeman and a small elderly woman pushing an Omega down the street, seems they had a flat battery so obviously I didn't hesitate at the offer jump start and had a chat about Omegas. She left with a smile and my number for when it is ready for scrapping It's a manual too !!
  10. Colleagues has a 4x4 Insignia TD estate with the business pack, it's loaded to fuck with kit and has a digi dash. She's asked me to look at it a few times when its done diesel type weird stuff but I wouldn't touch that drivetrain with a shitty stick. Good looking cars though !
  11. I knew it 😂 thanks Eddy
  12. Just spent a glorious hour fitting a £90 starter motor to the fiesta after complete non start, was just getting a click and no crank . Same issue after a new one fitted but a clean up and tightening of the battery connections resulted in a lovely crank and start Looking for some solidarity for a brother, the starter was indeed fucked and I haven't just wasted £90 have I ? REQUIRED ANSWER IS IT WAS DEFINITELY FUCKED AND YOU ARE A CAR FIXING GENIUS JON
  13. My old fiesta refused to start outside work last night, just a click ,so guessed starter was goosed, autoaid arrived within 40 minutes and no amount of whacking would revive it so I had my first ever push start in 30 yrs of driving ! Ordered a new starter from "carparts4less" at 8 pm last night and it was delivered to work at 10:00 am this morning ! Just got to find a spare hour to fit it so will be a bus wanker until then
  14. I did my work experience at Taxifix in Prescot, I think the FX5 had just come out, I spent 2 weeks getting stoned in the spraybooth with the painter who reckoned it helped him do the coachlines better. They offered to keep me on as an apprentice but my mam wouldn't have it . The boot floor being in 2 sections impressed me as you could repair a back end shunt in an hour or two.
  15. I only needed 2 whacks for what I was doing so couldn't be arsed finding it, whack 2 was rather painful so lesson learned
  16. Ouch, today I managed to hit my thumb with a brick I was using as a hammer, 48 yrs old and still incredibly fucking stupid
  17. Christ, that Stag owners club don't fuck about do they !!
  18. Some years ago I came home from a nightshift and was about to go to bed when the light went very bright and I smelt summat smokey, the TV in the living room was on fire as there had been a massive power surge, had I gone to bed 10 mins earlier I may have had a crispy end ! IIRC the leccy company paid a local electrical engineer to repair/replace everything in the street that was damaged, I guess he made a fortune out of it !
  19. Liverpool Empire I assume, my daughter reported the same this week
  20. Spotted this absolute twat of a plate today, someone must have been smoking crack when they thought this would look good
  21. Drop the oil on the fucker and put the plug back in, cheeky bastards
  22. I recall looking at a broken 3 dr Cossie behind Warrenders in Preston, sales guy wanted 3 k for it " It came in on a rope and it'll go out on a rope " Should of !!
