What makes you grin? Antidote to grumpy thread

Are they Mk4 Cortina lights?

 

My first thought is Mercedes truck actually. Horrible!

[Bucketeer]

Not motoring related but my adopted ex-stray cat died a long and poison riddled death last night and my girlfriend is the length of a country away and drifting further day by day but I have found great joy and solace in, of all things, origaymi. I'm sure the happiness it has brought me the last day or so is related to the fact that I can't think of anything else whilst doing it but who cares.

 

I would suggest it to anyone trying to shut out any miserable thoughts.

 

 

 

Oh and the vodka lurking in the background helps too.

I thought Vauxhall Victor at first glance and then I thought Opel Ascona.

I've just watched my wedding video in reverse, it was brilliant. She skipped along, jumped in the car and fucked off!

Has a pleasant trek to the Forest of Dean to collect some tyres for the Disco (and a set of Landy steels I hope to flog). Drove through Hereford, which actually is home to Rank Taxis! I don't think they considered all meanings of that phrase...(or maybe they really are shite).

Having read it on here I took the advise of Bikeman Billy and advertised my first bicycle on Gumtree.Just three days after listing it has sold.Very easy and pleasant transaction and I've made a tidy profit too.My local house clearance auction often has a bike or two so I've been buying a few and listing them on ebay.After fitting new tyres and the listing and selling fees were taken into consideration the last bike I sold on ebay, a very rare Falcon lightweight tourer, I earned the princely sum of.....my money back (just).This got me all disheartened until I read that post.After the success of my first advert I've now got my mojo back and am about to drag another bike out of the shed and get it ready for sale.

I live right next to an airfield and get Cessna's and private airplanes coming into land and taking off very regularly in the day and through the night. It's ace seeing these things taxi-ing about and then going full throttle through my balcony doors.

 

Also read it costs a Cessna 10 quid to land and then 30 quid to park it over night.

Good stuff, I've shifted shit loads recently and (thanks to FaceAche and eBay) I've bought a couple of right crackers at a very nice price. Just doing one up (a very nicely spec'd Kona) and then have a decent Trek hybrid to go.

Gumtree seems to be the place for really obscenely cheap cars at the moment. There's a lot of people who have just bought a new car and advertise taxed and MOT'd stuff for 200-300 quid, and they're perfectly drivable.

Preloved is also good, but have never bought or sold off there.

[RedSparrow]

Hey! I want another update from the resident FSO nutters!

You could try turning the landing light off.

You. OUT.

I just hope the film isn't shit. It's been getting good reviews but I don't know how well it'll work on the big screen.

[Pillock]

I had one of those Technics, wat... The display had a short so a few segments lit up when they shouldn't have but it survived many house moves and sounded ace. If they're beer money I might buy another, I think the ex wife binned mine.

Yeah, and he has a Nissan Micra.

 

However - this should possibly go into the stupid question amnesty thread - can someone please fill in a foreigner as to which crime he has actually committed?

[M'coli]

I have just accepted my Open Uni degree - a 2.1 in Engineering. :grin: :grin:

[Cavcraft]

Nice one chief, congrat's!

 Well shagging in a micra.... his nutsack must been hanging like two furry dice from the rear view mirror.

[Junkman]

Is that a crime?
