Childish I know, but made me chuckle when I parked behind it earlier.

Came back to the Scudo van earlier having left it parked in a car park for a bit.  Parked next to it was a shiny new Volvo XC90 with people sat in it.  I walked over and unlocked the Scudo, was about to get in when the woman in the Volvo got out and said "excuse me".  She then came over and very apologetically explained that her son had opened his door into the side of the van whilst getting in.  "I don't think it's done any damage but I didn't want to leave until I'd let you know".

I like a stereotype as much as the next bloke, but occasionally it's nice to see one being turned on its head.

Watched a  film with the good lady tonight and saw the Prime Minister from Love Actually (who was elected in a pre Christmas election) meeting with the President from that post apocalyptic horror film (I forget its  name...)

 Oh the serendipity...

Bid on a car that ends in less than 2 hours. A car I've always wanted and definatley appreciating in value. Just have to think of a good story to tell my sleeping wife if I win!

You still have 11 hours remaining? A lot can change in the last 11 minutes!

Edit: just seen the time in the corner of your screenshot...

[Jamie]

Yeah I'll prob get outbid, kinda hope I do really it's the last of my savings but yolo.... 

[Jamie]

Bastard outbid by 20quid at last second 

 

[rainagain]

You never know the high bidder could be like the majority of eBay car bidders and not bother turning up.

Wow, is that all a Corrado is worth these days?

[High Jetter]

I'd see how your OH reacts - if she's disappointed that you missed out, you have permission to do it again. If she tears into you, no damage cos you still have savings.

I mean it's done 185k miles and the heater doesn't work but yeah I thought it was good value too.

Watching the Icelandic Off Road Racing on channel called Frontrunner. 

Noisy V8's, mud and noisy V8's.

Hot Wheels cars in poundland cheered me up a bit, I thought it was a Kelisa at first but its an 84 Honda Citi

Spotted 2 radios the auctioneers had seriously undervalued  with an estimate of £20-40 on one  item and £10 on the other 

I left £100 autobid on each thinking I'd walk it 

Checked in to watch and 

I have £10 , 20 on the internet , hang on £300-£400-£500-£600 

Bollocks 

2nd one comes up and the same happens 

I need an auction that's not online

Our NHS are Brill, my lung infection has got worse so had to visit our out of hours gp, he is worried it could be sepsis (doubt it, but best to be safe), within an hour I have had bloods and x rays done. Just hoping they don't want to keep me in when the results come back.

If it's sarcoidosis like I had, it's likely you will be staying a while.

It seems it’s down to my arthritis meds affecting my lungs, should be home in a couple of hours or so, no idea where we go from here though. NHS and good Hope hospital in particular have been amazing.

Watching shaun of the dead, 

Some prime shite to be seen in the streets And my inability to not look if the megane has it's badge or not. 

 

Yeahhhhhhh booooooiiiii !!

[Wack]

I've seen SOTD many times , I could still watch it again , nick frost and simon pegg make a great team

Watched Paul on netflix last night , another good one of theirs 

[Andyrew]

I liked Paul, Hot fuzz is another brilliant film that has so many great quotes and a great cast. 

The amount of people I've worked with or customers I've met that do the "yarp" from that film always makes me smile. 

Me and my good lady popped to Wells on our way back from somewhere to check out some of the film locations and a nip to the pub. 

 

[catsinthewelder]

I watched it with my son and his mate on Halloween night.

Does anyone else see a resemblance between Ghosty and Bill Nighy? ?
