'OMG we set off bleary eyed at 9.30 am ofter a totally krazee night out in Manchester, we took a few wrong turns and had to put some petrol in at Warrington but otherwise we made it by the skin of our teeth, arriving at Liverpool at 11.45am where we dumped our trusty steed at Bootle docks then celebrated our amazing feat in our trademark hedonistic fashion by having a look at the new Liverpool 1 shopping centre, before having a pint in a chain pub and going home on the train'

Excellent!! They should put it on TV.

 

9:00pm The Computer Room

Fly-on-the-wall show documenting the lives of self-styled "zany" IT support workers Kevin (33) and Michael (35). This week they take time out from their wacky antics of putting office watercoolers in the lift and shouting Internet catchphrases at the elderly, to embark on the "Loonies to Liverpool" charity rally. Hurtling across the M62 in a fur-covered Ford Capri, they risking upsetting their mums by being late for dinner, as well as the future chances of any lasting human contact.

Always had a soft spot for Sierra's, I had one for free once, it was a 1989 Sierra Sapphire Ghia in Black "F230TAR", was my first car, sadly though I had to scrap it as I lost my job and didnt have enough money :(

Funny, whenever I see them I think of death-defying school trips. You see, my primary school had one of that shape, would have been around 1988 but it was a B-reg I think. It was donated by the local secondary school after only four years service because their monsters had trashed it. If you moved around on some of the seats, they came out of the floor. Every seat had foam missing meaning the only thing between the top of your spine and the metal frame was some vinyl. And I was one of the 'trusted' kids who was allowed to sit at the very back.... because the doors had a habit of opening whilst moving, and I was trusted enough not to fall out.

World's smallest schools? We had the 'luxury' of a panorama-bodied bedford bus, holes in the floor you could see the road through and seats that when you whacked them you got engulfed in a dust cloud. Terrifying.

I was also trusted to sit at the back of the school tranny. (not that sort)Once, it a fit of buggeration, at 12/13 years old, I swapped the main live feeds to the stop/tail/indicator lamp units.......I got a right laugh when i saw it going down the main drive stopping for a junction, and the indicators coming on............It failed its next MOT and the "sabotage" was menitioned in assembly. I kept very quiet, and sat nowhere near the rear after that.
