Berry Pomeroy turning onto the main Paignton - Totnes road. Coming from Berry Pomeroy into Totnes.

Oh I know the road not a fan that bend is dangerous

A grin or a grump?

I ordered new plug leads for the Daimler yesterday for David Manners,would you like to play for next day delivery he asked,no I'll just get them when they turn i say.

 

Lunch time to day a knock at the door and a parcel. The most ridicules spelling of my surname. It is my leads.

If I had payed for postage would they have turned up before lunch?

Watched 'Nymphomaniac part one' last night. Wasn't sure what to expect (tits and arse obviously! :)   ) but it was actually a really good film! Loads of big names in it and yes, there was sex (including one very short sequence that could have been lifted straight from youporn!) but it was/is a really thought provoking and beautifully crafted film! rare these days to watch something that genuinely makes you think and I had a bit of an 'epiphany' which is NOT what you lot are going to try and make it out to be! :)

 

Gonna watch Volume two tonight! Film 4 late.....

I started to watch it on Netflix, but Shia Labeouf :? :? turned up sporting an accent that was not of this planet. So I stopped.

I know the current weather should be a grump, but there's some spectacular skies outside

Gave the little 'un next door a piece of my birthday cake. Mum pops round 10 mins later with a bottle of Soplica orzech laskowy.

 

OMG, how lovely is that! Nom nom nom.

A 58 plate Citroen C5 with the driver door mirror wrapped in tin foil to look like the undamaged passenger side.

 

A proton Gen2 with PROTON along the door bottoms.

 

And a Senic with MADONNA along the doors.

Shia Labeouf :? :?

 

Oh, so that's where 'JUST DO IT' came from... :grin:

I've been pottering about the caravan park in 2nd gear tick over most of the week. Shes running a bit lumpy cos it's on neat veg. Ill put some derv in for the way home, and create the biggest cloud of clag when I hit the dual carriageway on the way home Dorset has ever seen!

 

Could be worse, my mates been doing the same in his new octavia derv and the dpf light came on yesterday, so we spent 20 minutes driving very fast up the a30something this afternoon to clear it!

I failed my mod 4, I ignored one question... however, I did what I should have done for that question in other questions.

 

Passed with 95% just waiting for my cpc and digi card to arrive... Then I buy a late '90s xj, because why not??? They're cheap to buy I'm ignoring running costs.

Well done, I did mine last year so now have my class 2. I have used it a little driving for an agency on my days off.

Cannot wait to do my C+E.

This was the only thing left that I needed as I passed c+e last month. Which is easier to drive than the cat c imo.

A guy I know passed his c+e with zero faults, what a bastard!!!

 

Mod 4 is stupid, I took mine in two different cities (that shall remain nameless) the one I failed in, the examiner was a prick. Training providers have complained about him to whoever you complain to.

 

Today's test was fantastic. The examiner was helpful and was happy.

Im paying my deposit when I get paid next friday.

I did my class C with a training school that I would never recommend.

The examiner was also a todger. I then did my cpc mod 4 with the same school and luckily the examiner was ill so another was called in. I got 100% and he said this is a waste of time and a money making excercise.

Congratulations on your C+E im really envious

I won a book on eBay on Tuesday night (about 11:00 p.m.) paid instantly and it was here this morning! Book about the Bentleys at Le Mans in 2003 (I think) there were no details at all about it on the listing so I am well chuffed.

 

Also, feeling slightly more human today so doing the washing and cleaning. Wait for the 'grump' thread saying how dreadful I feel! :)

Love Portsmouth at Sunset. I used to live behind the bigger of the 2 main blocks of flats in that picture, and I got some spectacular images with the Spinnaker in the background. Alas I'm a bit further away now, probably under that cloud in fact ,though my presence at the time would have been elsewhere within that panorama :-P

 

Best night was when we had a 3 hour electrical storm and trying to anticipate when a flash was about to happen, and hoping it would hit the tower. A few people got some great ones of it being hit, or nearby.

Would you fucking believe it, my p6 facebook coolant hoses have just turned up. I never thought I'd see them, I was about to order a new set off ebay and start a paypal payment dispute!

Just had a Dominoes pizza. Having eschewed them as 'nasty shit' for decades finally bought one as they deliver  and I fancied a Pizza. It was fucking delicious! Just shows what a prejudiced old twat I am that knows sweet FA about anything!

Pappa Johns are even nicer, pizza is my one and only vice (old cars are an eccentricity not a vice).
