Question on the Chase a few days ago.

What animal is depicted in the Deliveroo logo?

Contestant,” horse”.

Wouldn't that be Deliverorse? 🤣

Coked up? 😁

not that exciting

my mate wasn't feeling the best so forced him out to cheer him up which was successful

£57 in total, for 2 people and drunk enough i couldn't remember getting home so i'd say that's decent value

Just watched latest O'Reilly autos vid - problems with an Xtrail.

At the start of the vid there is a guy in the background pissing in the bushes.

We don’t judge you for it.  Going out for a meal with a friend to talk to is good.

Indeed..

Couldn't find the 'pictures of where you live' thread so, instead, it's here.

This is entitled 'Boxer at Dusk' (and it's been on my phone since Tuesday - weather here today was pants)

This ALF? Thought he'd have been consigned to the pre-internet dustbin of history?
Now SOAP would maybe be worth a rewatch - has the humour there survived the years....

Met up with @Mally this morning to get a pair of mk1 Yaris rear lights off him. Complete with a full set of mint bulb holders which are what go fucked. And are like hens teeth it seems. Keeps the mother in laws car on the road a bit longer! 

cheers Pete. Good to see you again. You'll get first refusal on the car for racing when she finally gives up on it 👍

Only two things I remember about ALF...

1) The scene where he sings Bob Seger's "Old Time Rock and Roll" using a cucumber as a microphone.

2) The director's name was Peter Bonerz.

What makes you grin, well it's this -The ex @Saabnut and @DirtyDaily L322.
 

It just wafts along so effortlessly, has endlessly adjustable seats (so you're never uncomfortable)  and the double glazed windows make it reasonably quiet... Not forgetting the V8 soundtrack when making progress.
It's a shame these get such a bad rep',  because i can't think of another vehicle that can tow, waft or cover many miles in such comfort. Buy one that is mechanically sorted, keep on top of it with routine maintenance and you'll be tip-top.
I'd like to see how the earlier Td6 compares to this (4.4 Jag V8 engine) - Any members have one i could try ?

Will certainly be one to add to the 'Regret selling' list, as and when the time comes.

Advert just placed on a local Facebook group. I think they’re serious but it made me laugh.

What is funny about it? I’m confused, seems like a normal ad to me 🙂

My progress thread for this beast is in desperate need of updating, but TLDR; it's now back on the road! 

Decided I'd treat it to a valet at a not-so-local hand car wash, and they did an absolutely brilliant job for £20. 

The interior was pretty hanging in particular and with this weather I really couldn't be bothered to do it myself. The exterior was really grubby, but it's come up brilliant thanks to their efforts, so credit where due.

How do you apply when the ad was posted anonymously?

[goosey]

Just spent a morning sending out really insincere sales emails to customers that I know have zero interest in buying anything 

edit

i enjoy it because I can be quite over the top as in “whatever you do, please DO NOT hesitate to contact me and I will do my utmost to assist in anyway I can”

etc etc

A nonny mouse and advertising for a housekeeper/au pair on Facebook is pretty stupid; anyone decent will be with an agency, whereas facebook is filled with windowlicking mouthbreathers and nonces.

My mate is selling an automatic flat four 2.1 VW T25 caravelle on ebay. Someones just asked if it's got full service history and if not they want to see receipts for when the cambelt and clutch were changed
