surprised there's any room for a body in there besides the lead acid batteries, tupperware and half a dozen chargers from halfords

Just goes to show what a great car the R8 is, with a deceptively capacious boot able to conceal a corpse.

what a fantastically interesting day

random fb message earlier from my childhood best friend

he moved to new zealand in 2007 and we lost touch a few years later

never thought i'd see him again

anyway he messaged me as he's come back to the uk

not only that, he now lives in Easington Colliery, about 2 miles up the road

we are arranging a meet up

i am very very very happy about that

Note sure what if be more bothered about. Reading anything in the daily Failed or being murdered and put in the boot of a Rover.  Suspect on balance I'd rather be murdered.

I am reading mumsnet threads in much the same way as I sit and watch the sheep sometimes.

Their ways are strange and alien, but it's incredible how the patterns aren't so different to here.

Are we just mumsnet for blokes?

I'm pretty sure the reprobates who set up this shithouse haven't sold it to a hedge fund and retired to a life of luxury, so the analogy only goes so far.
