Norwich isn't somewhere you go, it's somewhere you end up.

Yes, happened to me once, thankfully escaped.

So you're trying to fly from Manchester to Stansted and it sends you via Portugal, and on the return leg it's sending you via Tenerife, which is off Morocco and Western Sahara?

:shock:

That's a pretty awesome front room garage. Near-ish to where I live, in the suburb of Ponsonby, in Auckland. Parking is notoriously hard to find there, and many of the old villas do not have the space on the property for a garage.

Assuming that there's no double yella lines outside, i would be tempted to park outside and go on holiday forv a week. 

No. Even I'm not that much of a twat.

About midday Monday I ordered some parts at the local BMW main agent;  09:05 Wednesday I get a call - your parts are in. Not bad for a 35 year old car, let alone some of the parts being very low production model specific. The grump will I fear come when I attempt to fit them, blood is likely.

I've got 20p here that's says you're wrong, Tim.

Went out on my pedal assist e-bike this morning. Took it very gingerly as not wanting to damage the knees i had surgery on.

30kms covered, mostly flat or gentle gradients, and nearly all of it covered whilst on the lowest "Eco" setting. Very pleased with that, so will have several more rides on this route to build up strength and stamina. I am a fat bastard so no going for broke just yet.

It must be urgent because they've sent it twice this week! A proper scam one this time, ticking all the boxes. There's a problem, a request for money and a statement of urgency.

I would reply but this is my only mailbox. No scambating for me this time.
