Tardis, ultra mousse (never tried it before) a d G101. He gave me some bottles too.

 

He turned up in a porche carerra, so must be on a good commission!

[chodweaver]

They have words?

Allegedly. It is also alleged that piers morgan wrote some of them.

 

Figures.

Well done Dave! What a palaver. You cracked it in the end though.

We're back! Thank you daveb47 for all your efforts and for not giving in to the naysayers.

Phew I nearly integrated back into society.

[Guest Hooli]

Hurrah for Dave

[AlabamaShrimp]

Is this thing back working?

[Guest Hooli]

No it's your imagination

Was just at the dump collecting a mower when an older chap showed up looking to ditch a pair of mercedes 16" alloy wheels with tyres. The man from Hampshire Waste Disposal, he say "no chance with tyres on m8".

 

as he was being told to re-load them and pay a automotive dismantler to take them away I asked the dump people if they minded me taking them off the guy, they said they didn't mind and that it was crazy, but they weren't allowed to take them due to the tyres. I called over to the bloke and said if he wanted rid then I'd take them off his hands, and he was chuffed to bits. Apparently the dump people can't even take them off the public for their own use.

 

A cursory ebay search reveals they are a pair of 16" 'Mirzam' alloys with legal Michelin tyres on. The laquer has started to flake a bit but for the grand price of FREE I'm not grumbling.

 

There should be a few quid in these, let the gumtree m0ngfest commence.

 

EDIT - pictorial evidence

I biked to Rhyl with some mates today,a 65.5 mike round trip.

Fell off my bike outside the cafe and got a seriously good chase off a nasty looking little bastard of a dog for quite some distance. It was a right laugh.

Just got back from the joyous land that is Scotland, 1400 miles in a week in a 16 year old E46 auto which never missed a beat and averaged just under 40mpg despite using it down a load of seriously narrow and out the way places. Ardtoe and the Isle of Luing were right up there as some of the best places I have ever been.

Down in Somerset at the moment spending Easter with family.  Took the Rover of Doom, which as usual never missed a beat and did lots of mpg.  That car is 1337 (see what I did there?).  Chemical tanker caught fire on the M4 which slowed things down a bit as the motorway was closed off for quite some time (understandably in this instance), but other than that the journey was smooth enough.  Clutch is getting rather stiff though, so might need a new cable in the nearish future.

Took the Civic for an MOT and it failed on a numberplate bulb, which they duly fitted and passed. Genuinely amazed by this since the suspension feels totally knackered and I was ready to take it straight to the scrappy and post a wanted thread here

Watched a film called The Young Offenders on Netflix last night - haven't had such a good laugh in ages

 

Trailer contains swearing and is probably NSFW

Did he lose his temper in the shopping centre?

[Philyc]

For those who saw, on the temp forum i posted about a bloke coming to pick up the reliant in a luton van.

 

Below are the crap pictures my mrs managed to get. Suprisingly didnt take us long to get it on and was a good giggle.

 

I also may now be selling the fiesta (from my avatar) to the same bloke!

He steals bikes and was making a getaway from the policeman who was after him (who his boss called "Lance Armstrong).

Today is the wifes 50th birthday.

 

As she's been battling cancer and ill health for the past 7 years reaching the big 5-0 is a real milestone in more ways than one!!

 

Nice day out on the Llangollen steam railway and a meal beckons today.

[beko1987]

"daddy, how does the Easter bunny hold all the eggs she delivers?"

 

"she's got a lovely mk1 Mondeo estate with non gaffa taped bumpers and air conditioning to stop all the eggs melting"

 

"really, like Santa has his sleigh?"

 

"yep, bunny rabbits can't drive a sleigh silly!"

 

She believes it as well, can say Mondeo well too now...

I've just found out why the birdsong is so noisy in the mornings this year. A Thrush has nested & is raising two chicks about 5ft from my bedroom window.

Took the kids to the funfair in the park at the end of the road, don't know who had the biggest grin me or them watching them ride the Waltza for the first time.

Now I just need to find out if there is a Zipper in the UK to show them what I used to work on.

This is the ride I used to be on, now with new owners ignore the bit about the fastest Zipper in Australia it wasn't - the operator had the boom set at 7 or 8 rpms, Durkins ran there's at 10 rpm the last time I saw it.

[FakeConcern]

I heard those irritating sequential trace-a-line-then-off indicator thing made fashionable by Audi desribed as "wankacators".

Lucky Gail Purcell did not come up behind them in her Juke!
