Are you sure you weren't in France?

Cripes that Merc's a right stinker. That rear valence might need some work.

Whatever you think of Gordy B, he's talking a lot of sense here. Alex Salmond is such a shit and represents exclusively what's possibly the most historically dangerous and tragic political viewpoint - nationalism.

'Salmond, leader of the Scottish National party, plans to use the Commonwealth Games, hosted by Glasgow 2014 and other major events – such as the Ryder Cup golf tournament at Gleneagles and a Scottish clans homecoming festival – as springboards to promote Scotland's cultural and political vitality, to build up support for independence.'

 

Obviously not the same Commonwealth Games based on members of the British Empire then Salmond, you odious fat tw*t?

Former British Empire countries, surely.

For all his faults Alex Salmond is by far the best First Minister we've had. Donald Dewar was dead, Jim Wallace was a Lib-Dem, Henry McLeish was caught with his fingers in the till and Jack McConnell was an utter cunt.

That old Merc is great!, I saw a white one in the same condition in Colchester earlier this year but didn't get any photos, it was green with moss as well!

 

For a while I've been fancying a old record player for the living room, I bought one last week for £11 which turned out to be a bit pants, It worked alright but was a bit tatty looking and it had a 8 track, then i saw this one on ebay, a few bids later and it was mine for £40, Turns out it belongs to the sellers mum and she died so he was selling her belongs off to pay for a headstone, she bought it on HP back in 1958, it looks fab.

 

 

 

It plays well if a little crackley but it seems quite collectable, it's a Pye Black Box with a Monarch turntable if anyone cares.

He was peering into the engine bay when I fired it up. There's no air filter, and it seems some petrol had pooled in the carb barrel. It looked mightily impressive from behind the wheel, but I may have taken a year or so off his life.

...and Jack McConnell was an utter cunt.

His sister has enormous tits, however!

Found some Weetabix on Cross Street.

 

[Tayne]

As its not in a yellow and blue box, how can you tell its not a piece of cardboard packaging or chip board?

[pompei]

Where's the difference?

That's like saying a punch in the mouth's better than a kick in the balls.

 

Jack McConnell was a fucking bollocks alright, but so too is Salmond. The fact that he's pals with Rupert Murdoch is enough for me...

 

Can't see an independent Scotland happening any time soon though... It'd be as fucked as Ireland before the decade's out.

[Spiny Norman]

Spotted this rather nicely restored old ferry puttering 'doon the watter' on Saturday when I was out playing with my new zoom lens.

 

[Guest]

Was it made of Weetabix?

Surely only if they would then be foolish enough to join the EEC, even after decades of asset stripping a pretty industrious place truth be told, with skilled engineers and inventors as common as hookers in Birmingham.When they're sober that is.

That might be a bit of Trabant. Did you keep it?

[Des]

I'm upbeat because I learned today that the olympics is done, over, finished. I have sucessfully managed to completely ignore /avoid anything to do with it. Similar story with the recent royal events, I'm on a happy roll.

If it wasn't for the fact that my kitchen floor has a 'one life etc' checkerplate pattern that could have been me this morning (even the shoes are the same) - after I dropped my weeta on the floor instead of in the bowl of yoghurt.

Nah man, I didn't get the shipping quote from Shiply in time.

Besides, my mate wouldn't go halves with me.

[Albert Ross]

Flares and running/basketball shoes? They needed to be moccasins and Farah slacks.

[cort16]

You should put a lost & found advert in the local newsagents window for that weetabix

[HillmanImp]

You can tell by the orange tint to the tarmac on my drive that I own a Lancia.....

 

[HillmanImp]

Sorry Volksy, I should be saying that I part own a Lancia.
