Imp Jr just saw Rodney Bewes' Shovitte in the TV cars thread and asked:

 

"What car is that?"

 

I said "A Vauxhall"

 

"They're rubbish" he replied.

 

Brilliant. He's obviously got that from me.

 

His Auntie Terri drive one, looking forward for a telling off in the near future when he tells her this too.

I had to ring my bike insurer this morning as the renewal arrived & they didn't know about my points in Sept. The grin? the price went down by £50!

Lada Perfect.jpg

 

oldie but gold (you could almost do the same with trabants to keep the germany theme if you really wanted too),

 

it goes along with these 2 memes

 

 

 

 

when I showed the 2178 one to an eastern block friend, he wisely pointed out that out of all of those cars the Lada was the only that could hover/fly

Following some recent tests new cycle-grids (which are modeled on cattle grids with one important change) are being introduced on main roads to reduce congestion and entertain drivers.

On the recent 2CV trek around The North, there was a cattle grid with two longitudinal bars across the usual widthways ones. Chuffed to bits to line the 2CV up with them perfectly for the smoothest ever traverse of a cattle grid!

No photo, but behind a Honda CRV this afternoon with a Hub Nut sticker on the back.

When cycling I take great pleasure in using the longitudinal strips to cross them. Either that or a bunny hop to clear the whole thing!

Kerry this afternoon....

 

"why hasn't anyone thought to call Noel Edmonds to sort out this Deal or No Deal shit?"

 

well it made me laugh.

[Sheefag]

Have she ever considered writing jokes for Billy...?

Detailing World, Hubnut edition.

 

 

Entertaining and horrifying in equal measure.  End result surprisingly okay, all things considered.

Ad in the paper today (on the front page)

Wanted ....one Saxophonist to play to Kakapo Parrots because if music gets people in the mood for love, why not try it on Parrots. They need help desperately beacause there are only 147 left.All applicants welcome, Kenny G preferred.

It is a genuine ad placed by the Dept of Conservation. Sadly not full time.

 

Edited to add the ad.

Statistically men of a certain age who get points are less likely to crash than men of a certain age with no points.

That's the mathematical correlation

The causation is that we all become complacent and take risks but those who have been pulled up on it feel they have more to loose and slow down a little.

My dad once got his bike wheels stuck in the tram tracks at Blackpool.

An idiot at work did that a few years ago in Blackpool. Unfortunately the tram stopped in time.

It's grim in The midlands

Went to the clothes bank to dump. 4 bags of clothes and found half of a dyson DC41 dumped there.

 

Grin? I need the small tools for one of mine and this has them, so £15 saved there! Plus loads of spare parts

Couldn't do any worse, tbh.

Would you think you could collect a full rear focus axle into a fiesta, I was doubtful but took the passenger seat out in 2 minutes and it does indeed fit, fella at the scrappy was laughing his head off. 

 

Wife is amazing and didn't bat an eyelid whilst helping me heave the big heavy bastard out of the car

I misread who was the big heavy bastard, and thought you were saying the fella at the scrappy actually laughed his head off, so you put him in as well and now your wife is helping dispose of the body.

Did ah say it was grim

TBH looking how the cars next to it are parked that is the only way they'd have been able to open the doors on that side.
