Anyone who looks like they may misconstrue, No hugs and kisses for you. I agree. Please give me a hug. Having lived outside of the UK for a very long time I do find the continentals more tactile. until the bloody Covids came along. Still on the bright side, things are getting back to a bit more normal now. Jerzy Woking and Banger Kenny 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junkyard Digs have a store where they sell shirts and other assorted tat, but they don't ship internationally. I said I'd act as postmaster middle man.

I agree on reversing into a tight space, especially in a fancy motor, but I'm thinking he/she wouldn't have been able to open the large driver's door enough to get out. At least this way the owner can get their Gucci shoes dirty on the grass. myglaren 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
