Ah yes the farting Boxer Dog 

 

I let ours have a fray bentos pie once , it was gone in 15s 

I used to take him in the truck with me , next day we set off for Glasgow,  a 9 hour round trip 

 

Got as far as Lancaster and he started getting restless , then the first fart 

 

Fuck me I'd never smelt anything like it, June , hot and stuck in a truck with a dogs rancid farts every 5 minutes for 9 hours , each one with the aroma of fray bentos pie and sh!t 

 

It was 23 years ago , to this day I've never cooked another fray bentos pie , even looking at them in the shop brings back the memory of the smell

I can't look even remotely at mine! Plus side, it makes the dark light! 

Can't comment on the fuse as I cut some mega overkill flex offa shit extension lead so it has whatever it has! 

Have thought of putting a connector in the cable though, it's too much to stick on my cheap tripod. Would be neater to wrap it up somewhere else... 

Infact that's given me an idea... 

These are splendid; even if the inverters shit themselves I'll just daisychain them off whatever power supply I have lying around, a PC power supply would probably do it.

While rummaging for a picture of my old Batavus for another thread, I found a shot from the days when I was working at an outpost of Shithouse College on a particularly crime-ridden estate in Leeds. I quickly found the only way to avoid having your moped stolen:

I was down my lockup at lunchtime and some old boy rolls into the garage with a set of these flapping from the wheels of his Honda Jazz.

He said he bought a Jazz and thought these would make it look jazzier. He had them fitted then when as soon as went around the first corner they broke free from the rim of the wheel and started flapping around like crazy. Looked GR8 on his Jazz 15 inch rims 😀

After over a year of buildup, I finally passed my final MOD2 test yesterday, first try with only one minor for an indicator whoopsie.  This meant that the BMW F650CS that's been sat in my garage since last November finally got insured and out on the road with the last couple of hours of daylight. 

It's done little more than get started up and left idling for a few minutes every few weeks since I bought it last year, it took a few miles for it to clear its throat but once it'd warmed up and had some fresh fuel in it, it ran superbly.  Just in time for winter!

And yes I know double yellows, it was a brief stop to stretch legs and admire the view.  Extra points if you can identify the location.

Instow?

I didn't know this photo existed. I think it's the 205 Junior belonging to my parents in law, taken about 20 years ago. Although I  had two 205s in that red about the same time. It's up in the Kerry Mountains, I think near the Gap of Dunloe.

Today was our 33rd anniversary,and I got the usual handmade card from my wife:-

I ordered some brackets for a timber gazebo I'm making earlier today for click and collect from Toolstation. I was queuing for 5-10 minutes and the lady asked for my surname. She explained that I hadn't ordered anything so I showed her the email on my phone. She said you're in the wrong shop love.... I was in ScrewFix 😂

I had a bloke come in to halfords years ago kicking and screaming about his satnav not working right. Absolutely red in the face ranting about it at me over the counter. Basically it would be about 20 yards wrong when saying " you have reached your destination" like every sat nav was then and still is. He was a pizza delivery driver and just pulled up when it said "your destination is on the left" expected it to pinpoint the exact individual houses at night, so he would just get out and knock on the house door without even checking the number

"I'VE PAID GOOD MONEY FOR THIS AND IT'S MADE ME LOOK LIKE A PRICK A LOAD OF TIMES, WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO ABOUT IT?"

Nothing mate, this is Halfords. You're waving a receipt from Currys at me!
