That'd be the smell of Aberdonians fecking off quickly* at the sight of people with collecting buckets? *n.b. no smell of burning rubber as that just be an exorbitant waste of money. (I'm trying to imagine Santa Pod line up between a guy from Aberdeen and one from Cardigan - slowest half mile wins?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Current place has a decent big garage (1930s) but all other parking is on street, on a hill and permitted. Coupled with maintenance and renovations on the house and it limits shite owning and tinkering to one in the garage and two legally on the street. New place is mostly renovated (so less time from me) and has an integral garage, a 3 car drive, and a front lawn that MrsCoprolalia has already requested is part converted to gravel drive so that "you don't block my car in". Should give space for 6 cars total... Still in Cardiff? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manufacturers are going to have to review what an optimum charge time is as too quick charging may put buyers off!

I got told off by the receptionist at the Porsche dealership for not adding an 'ah' at the end of it. ImpJr was well angry with me. 😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cort1977 Posted December 19, 2023 Share Posted December 19, 2023 It's an interesting one isn't it? Would they say Paris or Paree? Sometimes it's just marketing, I imagine Porsche receptionists are told to say it that way to promote a unified brand identity or some such bollocks. I like to say 'Porshhh' as well.

Wibble Posted December 19, 2023 Share Posted December 19, 2023 Despite all we’ve got going on at the moment, something made me smile this evening. Popped into a local shop on the way home and noticed a newly installed defibrillator on the wall of the, er, undertakers. First thought, that’s fucking optimistic, second, or potentially bad for business! AnnoyingPentium, nomiST, High Jetter and 7 others 3 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
