What makes you grin? Antidote to grumpy thread

So, a mate of mine was off playing soldiers in Albania with the RAF Regiment last summer.

 

He brought me this back - the fuel filler cover off a MiG-15 jet he found in a military scrapyard :-)

Not sure what to use it for yet.

Like all Autoshiters, you'll keep it for when you buy a MiG-15.

 

You'll then throw it away years later before winning an eBay auction for said MiG-15 three days later. It won't have a fuel filler cap.

Was looking at a 1986 issue of Classic Cars mag with a Riley 4/68 featured, out of curiosity put the reg into the Mot checker and it's still alive and well albeit only clocking up around 100 miles between tests nowadays

Normally people who dither along in the snow piss me off, but in the last 24 hours I've had two of them pull over to let me past.  That's never happened to me before.

Wonder if this is still parked up.....

I think that's a MiG-17 as it's got three wing fences.

Annoyingly it's dead now, I put it's last mot on it, then sold it and it's expired now. Poor thing, cast aside when I got my Xm! Only had 75k on it too!

Wow, had me reflecting on the dollshouse fruitcake as well, I don't think it's him, the price is 500K shy and there's no lampshades made from human skin or creosote smeared Honda moped parts wrapped up in womens knickers.

The most remarkable things about that house IMO are

 

A) it looks presentable and usable unlike so many - the condition if not the styling is good

 

B) the agent hasn’t mentioned once that it would benefit from upgrading

Must have item in a brochure delivered today.

 

Motion Operated Toilet Bowl Light

 

Well named as well as useless.

The idea is to save you having to turn on the room light.

To be fair, the use of cupule is probably more correct than any word a native English speaker would use to describe it anyway. Divot, cup, wok, depression etc

The last roffle I participated in was for RobT's Xantia; I didn't win. Just seen an advert for the website below, on which for the same price I could have not won a McLaren 540C.

 

I have no regrets.
