I lived in Stoke Newington/Stamford Hill for years. That video is hilarious.

Got my k11 parcel shelf with speakers installed today, so much nicer :D 

Looking for a wet vac or something not too expensive so I can clean up the seats and carpets.  Any suggestions?

I have a Titan one from Screwfix, sixty quid I think it was.  Lidl have them that look a bit better for about fifty, own make.

I thought this was the anti-grumpy thread

Did you mean to do a fake news share?  That was Minnesota over a year ago.  He is not and never was a FBI Agent.  You'd maybe think 'Informer, more likely', and that is why they let him go.  Truth is he is an Instagram/YT/Twitter member of the public and when they saw his ID they let him go.

If anyone is wondering why God's Chosen people are in fancy dress, that's the Jewish festival of Purim - the one occasion where they really let themselves go. More for the kids' benefit.

Good side.

Mechanical sympathy gets you no where in this house. ? 

 

It's a bit of a mess,

Further information has come to light. Wine was applied and the truth is out. 

There was a loud noise and funny steering about a mile away from the delivery. So of course she carried on and did the delivery. 

Then, having done the delivery drove off the wrong way. Did a few miles, a lap of a roundabout, a few miles back past her delivery and started on the 12 miles back to the unit. She only gave up when the steering got too grim. 10+miles like it easy. 

I'd like to make some comment about "unbelievable" , but honestly, I'm not even slightly surprised. ?. Some of you have wives and will understand I'm sure. 

(Parts bill looking like north of 400 quid. Eep.)

Oh god. That looks identical to my first car!

I know it isn't the actual same car. P894 AUY was scrapped.

Hopefully, it's all been done. I've started a thread on it.

Is that a genuine question ;)

I think it might have been rhetorical but then again.......

Getting this glossy studio photo of an early base Sierra for under three quid on Ebay.  The only problem is that black and white doesn't show off the grey grille!

A big personal grin in that I found the key for mavisnotmavis! All of my other keys were locked inside, it's been too long since I got along to the unit! Weekend goals!

I went into Costco at Haydock this morning to fill the van up with diesel , a 19 plate audi A3 pulled up, a woman got out then about a minute later she was off , I walked over , she'd put £4 worth of diesel in it , the PCP payment must've just hit her bank account :D

Woke up early this morning and couldnt get back to sleep. Normally a grump but I decided to go for a walk along the river Wear On my way back I saw movement in the water It was only a bloody otter. Stood and watched it for ages. So pleased to see something like this only about 500  metres from Durham City centre,

Watching animals is one of my favourite things to do , I don't drive distance any more but when I took a break in the spring I'd try and find a field with animals in it to watch them

Lambs were the funniest , I saw one that got on top of a bale of straw and was butting all the others off as they tried to get up 

Stopped at leyland trucks yesterday ,sat watching this little guy for 10 minutes

Made some little kid from the next village's day today! Have a warm and fuzzy feeling I've not had for a while now.

Said when all this is over (as you do, whatever it actually means) he can come back over and I'll get some cool stuff out the loft, he nearly exploded. Sent him off with his first dc01, bless! (his poor mum, her 3 door 206,(t reg though, very very early) had a k1 and dyson light ball in it and they were off to get 4 more...)
