As long as he hasn't used a BMW cam chain!

I had that set up on a Stock Car in the 70's with a Ford cam chain and gears. 2 to 1 steering took some getting used to and the chain fell off now and then.

I tried to ignore  Covid and travelled whenever possible. On one of my returns I later felt I was down on my money, but couldn't find it, or remember why or how.

I decided I'd spent it somehow and over the next 3 years forgot all about it.

I've just found a grand in an old bag!

I now recall coming home early because curfews in Spain.  I saved £500, by paying accommodation in 2 halves, plus £500 spending money.

I feel another holiday coming on.

Noticed a company name on a plumber's van just now: Leak-Enders. Made me smile, anyway.

+1 for Halfords

@LightBulbFun mentioned their sucky-sucky mobile phone holder.
£11.99 with free (3 day) delivery over £20 spend. So, yesterday evening I order one for us and one for La Sproglette (tightwads like me can buy a Halfords Gift Card for the exact amount via TopCashBack and get 6% cashback. No big deal here but if you are buying a big item?).
DHL guy has just dropped them off at the front door. Really well packed - impressive.

I've had a few of those, the ball always seems to snap off the socket.

 

I have a couple of these now, they are two years old which is a record..

The big badge across the bonnet is a bit of a clue. Just saying.

Genuine lol, just shared to me: 

"Just opened the garage and a wasp nest has fallen on him and broken up" 

Uh huh, is that so... That great big fuck off vacuum cleaner doesn't have anything to do with an attempt of removing them? 😂😂😂

"Fell on him and broke up" my arse 😂😂
