What makes you grin? Antidote to grumpy thread

I was out in the Alfa earlier and on returning back to my road I got a little stuck. I deployed the shovel but that only helped a little and was quite hard work so I got my youngest who is 16 and she 'drove' while I pushed which worked perfectly. 

The practice of clutch control a few weeks ago in a local car park certainly helped :)

That Ford Boutique brochure is fantastic. I'm sure a Ford licker on here would appreciate it.

Found some more evidence of Autoshite in historic times. This is located in the Fuckyeaux Tapestry, the unpopular sequel to the better known original.

 

As we can clearly see, the forefathers of Egg and Bornitedentity are having a minor disagreement about whether base Mondeos were supposed to have side rubbing strips. Meanwhile Slartibartfast watches attempting to break it up while Purplebargeken thinks he has seen a cheap MGF

Came back to find the cat sitting on the fish tank (where she shouldn't be) looking surprised we made it back.

A lot less chance than 1 in 59 though

Only before the numbers are drawn. Afterwards I invariably have a 0% chance of winning.

I know. Sometimes I surprise myself that I managed to find a woman that not only puts up with me and my quirks, but also wanted to marry me too.

Later in the day the rain will stop and the cloud will tear and fall . He will blow weak, in the Danube plain - to a moderate wind from the west-northwest. Temperatures will range from 3 to 7 degrees in the North to 8 to 13 degrees in Southern Bulgaria.

 

On Sunday, weather will keep cloudy, in many places with precipitation, mostly from rain . In the morning hours in places in Northern and Western Bulgaria will snow are possible.

 

The wind will lose weight and it will orient itself from the northeast and with it cold air will penetrate. The minimum temperatures will be in the range of minus 5 to 0 degrees, and themaximum during the day- from 0 in the northeastern regions to 15 degrees in the extreme southwest regions.

In some places the precipitation will be significant. The wind from the southeast will grow stronger. The temperature rise will continue.

That Harvester used to have a pond in the middle of it randomly. It was refurbished a couple of months ago - no idea if they kept it. I haven't been to a Harvester in quite a while and since they put the prices up (but quality the same) to try making it a premium place.

 

Quite a few other nice little places around here too hidden away. I used to really like Stoke Park, but since Cheswick housing estate has been built (old HP land) the area has become busy and lost some of its quiet charm.
