iainrcz Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 I'm in a cockapoo owner group on Farcebook. Someone posted asking for help on how to stop their cockapoo from licking the penis of their other dog. Then later it turns another Cockapoo's penis doesn't retract. Someone suggested putting a bag of frozen peas on it. Â Fuck me I've been nearly in tears.

garbaldy Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 You would think the body should get used to these early mornings but nope two coffees in and still not awake.

New POD Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 Bought my wife a years subscription to the National theatre on line, and the first play we watched was this. https://primafacieplay.com/ Jodi Comer is the only member of the cast and is brilliant. She made me cry though. Remspoor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EyesWeldedShut Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 On 2/14/2023 at 1:15 PM, GrumpiusMaximus said: This is particularly hilarious. This is the Focus that belonged to my other half and went to her Dad just over a year ago. I noticed that it had a rotten front wing a couple of months back and her Dad has been chuntering on since I spotted it that it wouldn't pass the MOT and has been angling for an old Alfa Romeo or similar 'executive' vehicle. They also live up a farm track, just to make it even easier. He isn't really in a position to demand what he gets in a vehicle and every time we've suggested a sensible option he's been obstinate about it and at times been quite rude to the point where we have given up and let him stew for several weeks. So the fact that the Focus passed is just hilarious and will irritate him no end as he doesn't like driving around in it, especially given that it's a 1.4 poverty-spec and now he won't be able to buy anything because he (fortunately) doesn't control the finances. It's actually a really sensible car and far more suitable than anything he actually wants, he just won't admit it. My 83 year old, nearest neighbour (3/4 miles away over a smooth* farm track) has two similar Focus (Focii, Focusses?) one is the daily driver, the other backup. They never die. 06/08 reg or thereabouts. My quad has trouble getting up to his place and I have no idea how his cars do not just fall apart (they're both maintained/ put through MoT by local garage) GrumpiusMaximus and AnnoyingPentium 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High Jetter Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 Saw an ambulance 5 or 6 cars back yesterday with blues on. Fairly narrow 2-way road coming up to a stretch where there are always cars parked on the left. Timed it nicely to pull across the mouth of a side road and got thanked by a brief 'whoop' of the siren.

Wack Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 Started off with a grin at 7.40am but after 6 hours and 3 trains I'm thinking this is a collection mission too far, still got ½ hour to go then 250 miles home Pretty though, somewhere in Dorset, Dawlish maybe   Low Horatio gearbox, Rust Collector, AnnoyingPentium and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

horriblemercedes Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 Filled the car with diesel this morning on my way to work at 241,045 miles (and 154.6p per litre, which already was a grin) Continued to work, a further 51 miles. Arrived at 241,096 miles with a range of 784 miles showing on the computer. This is my first 'economical' car since I was about 18 and I quite like it Remspoor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dyslexic Viking Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Possibly Norway's last surviving diesel Renault 19 that I considered buying last year has been saved. Checked today and it is now registered and passed the MOT with a new owner so that's good news.

Love stuff like that. I was out this aft and a mk2 escort and a capri went past in convoy. The mk2 was leading, had a full stadium rig on the front and both of them hit all the lights and waved cos I was in an old car as well. Makes you happy!
