What makes you grin? Antidote to grumpy thread


Recommended Posts

fuppin wars, I would just be waiting for the call from the police, "Hi Mr Grobbelar, your Omega has been found blocking a busy junction behind a broken down renault scenic, we are charging you £300 for recovery plus £300 for no tax etc etc"

 

Aye, I'd be having a signed, dated and timed receipt along with a photo of me holding that day's newspaper, a written statement from a magistrate, and a hidden camera video from an old VHS-C jobbie hidden in a bush. Police Interceptors could probably dedicate a whole hour-long show to pulling that over.

Check the MOT history of a vehicle

  • Vehicle make DATSUN
  • Vehicle model 1200
  • Date first used 1 July 1971

  • Colour Gold
MOT history of this vehicle

Will go and collect it tonight/tomorrow, and hopefully I can start putting a few miles on it.

 

Laurel also worth a grin today, used it for the first time since the trackday and all seemed well. I had to move the Camry to get it out of the garage, which was a bit of a bonus as even shunting it around on the driveway it's so pleasant. Can't wait to start using that one again.

There's a familiar car parked outside my back gate!

Doing/finishing this today...

 

Montgomery triathlon medal.jpg

 

18 mile bike ride, 11 mile walk, 7 mile (3 man) kayak along the canal. Laughably as none of us had rowed before, we just assumed the kayak leg would take 1.5 hours or less. As soon as we got in, we hit the bank on the other side to the amusement of everyone on the bank, then hit the bank countless more times along the way, rammed a few other kayaks and canoes, got overtaken by kids of about nine and people who looked well into their seventies and nearly went in a few times. I hated every minute of the first 45 minutes or so, then it just became a very tiring but massive laugh. Right at the end two women in their 50s tried to overtake us, hit the bank and went in big time, we couldn't help them for laughing but they were ok.

 

 

TL:DR: Anyone who says rowing is easy can GTFO

I saw a Megane with the number plate 'DU11 BOV'

He was one letter away from greatness and accuracy.

One by me says DO55 BAZ

I noticed that if something slightly overlaps the bottle of shampoo my daughter uses it reads 'real kids poo' instead of L'Oréal kids shampoo. Off to Morrisons now to rearrange their display for them.......

Got one for each of the Grump and Grin threads.

 

Grump,

 

Having to work on a Sunday morning when you've already worked your day off this week and it looks like you'll be working at least half of your day off next week.

 

Grin,

 

Getting paid time and a half to work on a Sunday morning and the weather is shit so there's nobody around, which means I've been doing bugger all apart from drinking coffee, eating bacon and talking shite on here.

 

Silver linings and all that.

Old mate down the road caught me in the street, earlier and gave me these 40-50 year old dollies.

I don't even know the fella, but that was very kind of him. He said his son didn't want them, so I will add them to my Clarke collection.

I remember looking forward to a model 2CV Dolly and my grandfather was aghast!
