The shopping channel where they are trying to flog you a Karcher pressure washer for an hour.

Is Derek doing it? (if Karcher)

St. Albans, King Harry Lane. Fiat. Late 70's possibly, 2 door, angular, flattened looking. Sort of a red oxide colour but a bit more orangey. Looked long and wide and bloody ace. No idea what it was apart from poss Fiat or Lancia Gamma Coupe. Not sure.

Hanging out with my son. He even found a car that I should get in his opinion.

I think he choose this one so that his sister won't fit in at the same time ;)

Tell us what's going on with those mirrors Vin. The rest of it is, indeed, "Cor".

I saw one of these in almost the same place a couple of days ago!

After watching a shite game at West ham, seeing this on the M11 on the way home cheered me up. Lovely looking thing.

Just sat in Oxford city centre having a drink and some young lad is doing some mad equations on a Mac, he looks eccentric and is wearing a green bow tie.

 

I don't even know my times tables.

 

However his wallpaper is a marina.

 

He is going to go far in life.

You are making me look like a right twat in front of hundreds of other dogs, cats and weird car humans. I will piss over your bike tyres later, you know I will.

I'm on my jollys in turkey. Arrived here at 4 am. Gad a kip then a wander round. Seems to be a lot of everyday cars what are hatch backs at home but all saloons here. Also keep seeing a lot of rebadged old fiat's. Tofas I think they are called. Seen a fair few called Tofas dogan and the estate called kartal and a couple called Tofas sahin. Apparently they where made as late as this century

Haven't lived at my place very long, and sadly don't really know any of the neighbours yet. Yesterday I heard a familiar crackling noise coming from outside, the bloke opposite was welding up his transit in the street.

 

I think he might be a good start :-)

Owed Old Man £12.50 for something I sold on eBay for him.

Paid him in 20p coins.

10p over or under?

Have you ever wanted to have two caravans, a mini pit bike and a spare engine?

Yes?

But you don't know how to get them do you?

Try selling a 206 on gumtree, and all your prayers will be answered

This is the verbatim record of the text I received last night:

"Re: Peugeot 206, 2004 1.4, MOT til Feb, LOW MILEAGE 68k, Intrested in swap for my swift 2/3 birth caravan its on gumtree for £1600 + my other caravan i paid £550 for it 4 weeks ago + my mini pit bike with 2 engins gogles and oil + its 2 stroke new 50cc engine onit its propa fast thats on gumtree for £250?"
 

Cheers then.

After having spent £££ on the Santa Fe transfer box i thought i would tidy it up a bit. Its polished and waxed and last year i painted the wiper arms. Brake calipers and hubs were on the list last night. Took the wheel off and ocd set in. The back of the wheels were  black. All cleaned up, arch cleaned and hub and caliper painted and wheel back on. Looks like a new car  :-P

Only problem i have 3 more to do  :-D. Any tips on getting a stuck alloy wheel off?? Seems fused to the hub  :?

Got the rest of the wheels off, so cheers for the replies.

Here is the wheel all cleaned up, hub and caliper painted.

Just discovered I was elected to the parish council last Thursday. Not quite sure how I missed that...

I got voted on to my parish council without me being there as well. They were in need of anybody that would turn up so they would have enough attendees at the meetings to make them quorate and I only live 5 mins walk from the church.

My 100HP just passed it's MOT. I have zero monies, so I was expecting a huge bill.

 

Failed on wiper blade.
