Burn those wheel trims. 

Burn those wheel trims. 

I think the Autoshite way would be more like the original Treasure Hunt with Kenneth Kendall at the map surrounded by old magazines and workshop manuals, leafing through a copy of Jalopy while waiting for reports to come in on a Grandstand style teleprinter.

Cutting up the 1st BMW 2002 I bought - I knew nothing and while half of it was rotten the other half would have fixed the one I have now without throwing hundreds on new panels.    

I had a 2nd interview... and they just rang to say that I am a "God among men" Ok, they said "I'd fit in" But, I got the job. I'm not gonna say what it is yet, but in theory. I get something pretty sweet to show you in a few weeks... it also means I could buy many many more Pandai.

Christ I keep playing the PMJ clip. Nowt like 3 curvy women in tight dresses who sing whilst wiggling. Damn you!!!!!!!

Jobsworth at the tip, I'm sure I heard one of them telling the other to take my registration number...
 
 
 
- Good luck with that as it's not my car. 
 
I'm going back tomorrow with some more stuff on purpose. 

Clearing the bottom of the garden. Dug out loads of crud, removed an old patio and realised the end is just a little higher than the rest of the garden.
 
So I decided to dig the area out with a fork. No biggie thinks I, turn it all over, dig some out and level off. No worries.
 
Fork goes half an inch down and CLANK. Something there. Tried again in a few other places, same result.
 
Further investigation reveals that under my old patio is - Another Patio! Arse biscuits, that's another twenty trips to the tip disposing of that. Tempted to fuck it off, put some shutter boards around the area and fill it with soil from other parts of the garden. "Yes, it's a raised feature area, very de rigeur in the gardens of Paris don't you know....."except Mrs P specifically wants that area flat and has said we will have to get someone in if I won't do it. And getting someone in is against my religion (am practicing member of the Seventh day Church of tightwadedness)
 
i am thinking the old patio must be pretty solid if someone preferred to go over it rather than dig it out.
 
Either way a job I thought was nearly over is, in fact, only half done. Bugger.

Bought a car today.
 
So that was 25 weeks without a car at all.
 
Big up the AA and their ambulance chasers making me go through their sham of a claims process especially when it wasn't my fault.
 
If your insurance goes up blame them.
 
I'll be making a complaint that they wanted more money for the insurance changing despite 6 months of paying for a policy when they left me without a car, bastards.

£1393.00
 
If i didn't have a 70 mile trip to work I'd buy this rather than an Astra.

Won't leave with any Dyson's either as they pass them to their "mate", might take my phone and ask them to check his plate as I thought he was stealing so took his photo.

In Worksop?

Few days ago some white paint markers for hole filling appeared on our road.
 
Aha! I thought, got a can of white spray paint and added some of my own markers where the council haven't put them.
 
Contractors came along yesterday and filled them all in
