I said almost exactly that to @Markeh when meeting up with him in the electric car charing part of the London gateway services off the M1 to do dodgy car park shonky old computer dealing  "I have got a 12V battery, that counts right? and a permanently coupled electric motor if you count the Dynastart unit "

Bit of an unusual sight this morning.  Two apparently unrelated silver N16 Almeras side by side at a set of traffic lights.

I'm a slap head. I normally shave my hair really short.

My dressing gown has a hood.

I've just noticed blue stuff all over my head.

Turns out my hair has been grabbing the fluff out of the hood of my dressing gown.

So I've been walking around in public with blue dressing gown fluff all over my head like a fucking blue tennis ball.

Funnily enough, one of the daft cunts at work called me Phyllis this morning.

I had called him Felicity first though.

So do I. Really wanted one , ended up with an Escort 1.6LX instead. When I finally got a Sapphire , it was a 1.8LX TD with 75bhp.

A friend of mine bought a Sapphire Cosworth 4x4 new. 

Within a week it had been stolen from his drive. Despite my friends protestation, his insurers insisted on a supplying 'like for like' replacement as they were still in production.. Once the claim went through, he received a matching new one. Funnily enough that disappeared a week later. 

He went through three before the insurers decided that replacing it with yet another one wasn't in their best interests.
