[greengartside]

Have just booked my ticket to go and see this guy on tour...

 

 

..probably not everyone's cup of tea but I like his music

[Minimad5]

greengartside -My friend that is a rather funky tune, with a TINY hint of Dubstep.(Song Bookmarked )Edit:- What makes me Grin ? -DRUMMING

[Mr Lobster]

Unearthed the R4 from it's winter slumbers, quick check over then a bit of a run out for half an hour on this afternoon. Lovely. (and everything seems to be working as it should.)Good stuff.

[RedSparrow]

TR7 is running great. Although its looking a bit tatty and one of the headlights has to be wound down manually I will be using it as a daily driver as much as possible (ie until something else falls off). I hope I haven't jinxed it by posting this.

Went to London yesterday. Watched a Spaced flash mob take place in Trafalgar Square, then went and played Wii tennis at my little sisters' flat. Then watched a street dancing show, had dinner in Covent Garden and came home.Stuff you've never done before for the grin!

[M'coli]

Got up early and headed to Swaledale with the dog, Dolly's old Saab cruising nicely on the A1(M) and then easily ripping past a milk tanker north of Leyburn. I'm impressed with the power steering, nice feedback when you're pressing on, makes a change from the Polo where you didn't know what was going on.Arrived at Gunnerside at half 9, plenty of parking, headed up the hill. Didn't see another soul for over 2 hours. Bliss.

Today I asked out a rather lovely girl at work, not only did she say yes, she seemed quite enthusiastic. (just hope I don't ruin it in a Larry David style way, as I tend to do).Following this I did some excellent wiring and stud-wall building.To top it all, on the way home the previously-fucked clock in the TR7 sprung into life for the first time ever whilst in my posession. I actually laughed out loud at this point.First good day I've had for about 2 months.

[Minimad5]

RedSparrow, reading that actually made me Laugh out Loud You sir have some kind of magic going !

[brammy777]

Sounds like an ace day RS, nice one.College wasnt bad at all today, got a whole assignment done and I feel better about the workload now, its not impossible.Plus I saw a Hyundai Stellar! There is a serious amount of impressive tat in Basingstoke at the moment.

Once she realises you are a TR7 owner she will no doubt be asking for your hand in marriage.

You would be surprised, the studenty type ones think its 'cool', whatever that word means.

That silly Match.com advert, with the guy on guitar and the woman on PEEEEano.

After another day of utter shit at work (twunts etc), coming home to Pizza, Old Speckled Hen and Autoshite

[brammy777]

After a bloody long time of waiting, I finally got that Cars of the Soviet Union book, and its so good. More books like this please. Also, if Haynes can justify this, why not a BL book, its pretty much the same thing.

Have you sampled Old Crafty Hen? If not, may I suggest you do - it's like Speckled, only better. I visited the Greene King brewery last weekend, complete with tasting session at the end, and Crafty was my favourite.

[Mr Lobster]

Have you sampled Old Crafty Hen?

Haven't but I spotted it in Tesco last week as it happens. Shall get some tomorrow when I get a copy of PC and report on my findings over the weekend.Do Tesco sell alcohol at 6.30am ?

[brammy777]

Im not sure what the laws regarding alcohol sales in the late evening/early morning are, but I did once go to a 24 hour Tesco at midnight and they refused to sell any to me due to the time.

[Mr Lobster]

I shall have a go on my way to work. Might as well start the day by becoming grumpy over the fact that a grown adult cannot (possibly) buy alcohol on his way to work.Otherwise shall find a supermarket in Scouse which sells it during the day...

Ripping my hands to bits removing the heaterbox and matrix, whilst getting soaked by the rain and finally fixing the heater motor ! ... okay so i had to remove the motor, sand off rust from the "bushes"But it WORKS

Dave...

 

... the cat food thief had three packets in his cardboard box yesterday and eaten two of them.

 

 

Tiddles...

 

the farm rescue kitten, now considerably bigger/older but still a nutter.

[Mr H Sceptre]

Hey Billy - you could get tins of cat food instead of pouches. This would eliminate Dave's little habit......

[Hudsonpie]

Dave looks well hard, he'll probably be able to get into tins by the looks of it.....

Our friend that visits got run over a while back, broken leg, smashed jaw so now his tongue sticks out.He was walking funny for a bit but he's back to full health now, fucking farts stink though....Alfie says hi....

I think hes gay....

[Mr Lobster]

Oddly, one of our cats likes stealing bits of cardboard and paper, spending a while attacking them then taking them somewhere to hide them afterwards. Amuses me the odd places I find them - under the rug, under the sofa, inside the fireplace, behind the curtains
