is #2 from right on the third row down Rolf Harris?


I don’t think so, just a generic 1980s spectacles wearing Dad.

I don't need to tell anybody , they can hear it coming then when it's in sight they see it going sideways into a wall

FTFY because according to the interwebs, all modern Mustangs in this world eventually end up crashing into something.

Just helped the old lad get his iveco home after it snapped it's throttle cable.
We jammed it open just enough to trickle home at 15/20 mph.

So, whilst looking at how much the house just the road is from where SiL lives, do you answer her her comment when she saw the price of "fuck me"!

Just stopped the guy on my road that owns the XM (it must be the shitest one that's still road legal). 

'Sorry, just thought I'd let you know your sunroof's open' 

'Ah yes, you see none of the windows work so I thought I'd air it. Anyway, it's pointing uphill, so even if it rains not much water will get in. Of course, if I park it facing downhill then it leaks whether its open or not...'

Applied to be apprentice bike mechanic.

Tell mate that's in the cycling scene, gets me a reference in exchange for a week or so of work experience in a different, one-man bike shop.

Head down, take my most recent bike build with me as quasi-CV.

One and a half hours in I'm asked if I can run the shop for two weeks next month while the owner's on holiday, paid.

 

:shock:

I'm posting this with a heavy heart... 

Car collecting has been part of my life for decades and as much as I love my car collection and adding to it and enjoy the constant fettling, it takes up too much of my time and I am struggling to keep up with the everyday basics such as cleaning and maintaining my home, so something has to give. 

I will be re-homing my collection 


Please don't ask any questions, as I can't handle talking about it. 





Below is a list of what's available. All FREE of charge, but to good homes only. Serious enquiries only please. 




Thanks for reading and understanding . . . .

No, definitely Rolf, with a young Karen Carpenter on his lap, think the one on the right is Michael McIntyre.

I'm in the market for new wheels. I've just messaged a guy about a 2004 alfa 147 tspark. I need something to take us all to skeggy next weekend.

Buying a fairly expensive camera from Amazon, plus a couple of other odds & ends.

Original delivery was five weeks away but has been revised twice and should now be next Thursday.

It is a present for my eldest son, he never gets any presents :(

Just had a couple of texts from the bank to confirm the transactions, checking for fraud, obviously.

Pleased that they are vigilant :)

At the scrap yard today when I was leaving there was a guy parked next to me loading bits into the back of a Disco, as I was about to pull away he leaned over the sunroof and asked if I wanted some hand cleaner as my hands were covered in nice thick diesel grime. Had a nice chat about land rovers, Peugeots, Volvos and big diesel engines. Even better, the hand cleaner worked better than anything I've used before, really wish I'd actually looked at the label!
