It said tent but one of the pics is a.glamping pod so I looked at the pics and the pod has the shower and wash basin in it

The tent is actually one of them massive yurt things

 

And they charge extra for linen and towels

Today i had borrowed my works latest addition to its fleet,  one that will be used for visiting low end clients, tips and the eventual weighbridge when the gearbox explodes or the ticket runs out. Whichever comes first. 

Upon seeing the car @Six-cylinder couldnt find the word to describe it.

Back on a dirt bike and rode in anger yesterday. It’s been a while forgot how much I’ve missed it. Mate lent me a bike for the day am now very motivated to fix my own as it’s been apart for over a year now due to injury then COVID and general malaise. 
Back in the game.

I am so happy! After years of carrying an injustice  having been judged guilty until proved innocent by my then employer the P.O.  ,

The then boss has today  resigned from her current board positions and her church role ( and isnt that church role predictable).

Perhaps she would like to serve a month for every year that P.O. employers wrongly served.

Too much?

Ive had the pleasure of driving both,  of roughly the same era.  Admittedly not good examples.

Given a choice and weighing up the pros and cons of the two cars. . . 

 

 

Id get a vauxhall Astra.

They were hard on the Volkses in Rathdrum. One three years old and one six years old, both having had replacement engines.

Rich Rebuilds gets hold of a Danish produced electric 3 wheeler, on a UK "Q" plate, and puts a bigger electric motor in it, powered by drill batteries.

Standard 2 hp and about 25 mph. Now 10 hp and 65mph (so far), with more to go, and an 80 mile range

Makes an Invacar look stable.

I must admit his idea of driving to the nearest Home Depot store,removing the Milwaukee batteries to claim replacements then driving on was "inspired"

I've been following this in the Private Eye for some time. Funny how it's only relatively recently got into the Mainstream Press. I'm glad for you and your family; friends and colleagues. I understand there are many; many more case yet; Tip of the iceberg...

Just watching Family Guy clips on YouTube, as you do, and found this clip of Stewie almost being run over.

By a Citroën C2!!!

Today, at around 4am my brain decided to remind me it isn't a sieve and can remember things.

Specifically, and I've no idea why, the jingle from an advert I haven't seen in about 25 years.

 

The Gino Ginelli ice cream advert.

So obviously I spent the last 2 hours of the shift singing it.

Absolutely brilliant.

No. Not too much. 

Those people who knowingly lied under oath, should definately serve the longest prison sentence that the innocent were given.
