Lady next door has just brought me a HUGE slice of cake, cheesecake at that, because today is my birthday ( :)  ) I have many, many presents including a new mattress (memory foam, effin' comfortable as I am laying on it now) a new hoover, and a new toilet seat! The toilet seat to replace the cracked one that was here when I moved in... 7 years ago! It was one of those that occasionally bit your arse which is not what you want when taking the strain!

I have made the effort (not that sort) and fitted it so after  two thirds of a decade of toilet dancing, I can sit and contemplate in peace and comfort :) 

Also got socks and knickers etc, decided the dogs have bought me new wiper blades (Phoebe who is much more generous) and a can of Waxoyl from Chester who considers buying presents for anyone other than himself a total waste of money!

Happy Birthday, glad you'll have a more comfortable year ahead.

Mrs DS regaled a story  a story which I had never heard before of her being stuck in a DS which wouldn't start and some chap offering to give her a push start. They got up to walking speed and he instructed her to  let the clutch up... to which she replied "it hasn't got a clutch pedal".

I've just won a 360bhp AWD Skoda Citigo from Darkside Developments competition! Fucking amazing!

I can swap it for 2nd prize (300bhp Ibiza) if I'd rather, they say

Edit: Holy shit:

 

Brilliant

That is awesome, I also entered the competition; for the Ibiza rather than the CitiGo though.

Oh you've got to drive round in that for a bit, even just to say you have! 

You'd probably take one look at the wiring on it and freak out too lol, could repair all that then ebay it!

Was wondering when someone one here would find those! Here are some of my favourites:
20 worst album covers of 2018 - Rate Your Music
Totally not the worst song subject I've ever seen...
Worst Christian Album Cover Ever...And probably worst Christian album,  period? | Worst album covers, Music album cover, Cool album covers

Trumped by this man.
Funny and just plain weird album covers – Janet Carr @
What an album!

 

Fun fact, the guy with the bouffant hair is Wayne Cochran, soul singer. Seems that his hairdo is surprisingly not a wig either.

My mum’s old Fiesta is still on the road! She owned it for nearly 10 years, and part ex’d it last year for scrap money. It’s one of the first cars I ever drove, and one that I have a lot of fond childhood memories of, so it’s a nice surprise to see that it’s still being cared for by somebody.

A photo of it just before she got rid. It looked far less presentable in person
