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?

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.

Visited a new dentist earlier for a filling. It was like something off Heartbeat with amber coloured plastic and glass etc. and ancient looking equipment. The ‘therapist’ explained she was doing my filling. Between her and the assistant they couldn’t get the chair to move or the drill or sucker thing to work so they had to get the receptionist to show them how to work it. She also kept stopping and seemed hesitant… I think I need a therapist now!

That’s standard that is. Actually had a bloke viewing my old R50 MINI (which, much like its shonky Austin/BL predecessor was cam chain) who insisted on having money off the asking price to cover the cost of a new belt.

Interesting to see that engines 70 years from now will look like they did around 20 years ago.

Did you ask the AI if they could look like they'd stalk you and kill you if you ever tried to break up with them.
