Both motos still broken and no insurance on the Berlingo as of last night due to it sneaking up on me and online quotes being double what it was last year. 

Why the grin? Well it gives me the chance to use this;

Engines a bit smoky but its made the ferry quicker than the Berlingo due to respectful swift progress and lack of number plate.

Quick rest now then on to Waltham Forest. How my body holds up to 30 miles and a days graft remains to be seen. Wish me luck.

So I'm just walking down a street in Poland and...

Little minter too. It was there when I went out this morning and still there tonight.

Nice to see that they're finally starting to preserve cars like this,

I'd think this has definitely cost them sales, a friend bought a Mercedes because he thought the 40 on the boot meant 4.0 litres 

What was his aversion to four litres?

I've just watched the latest upload from Itchyboots, she is in Madagascar and has rented a moto to see the country. 

They have 2CV taxis in the capital. 😃

Away for the weekend at Butlins. Queuing up for the gents in one of the venues, noticed each cubicle door is numbered. Apparently the done thing isn't to yell "cashier number 3 please" as someone walks out.

 

Well fuck it, it made me laugh...

A guy in the next cul-de-sac seems to take everyones bins out (only about 8 houses) and lines them up on the main road millimetre perfect. A couple of times if we've passed them on a walk, I've pulled one a couple of inches out of line. Childish and my wife isn't amused.

Don't think so - if he did, they'd be spread out across the pavement at every angle possible. 😄

Just the thing to keep in your Range Rover

 

It does seem a cool toy but I think I'd rather have one of these:

when i’m working late shift, i usually park in town and pay for the last hour of metered parking using an app.

it’s quite simple, you just type in a code marked on the sign, confirm your reg and pay your ££.

this is a summary of my recent activity

IMG_6562.png.fea8a77271f9a1f5c8cb078fcc0fdef0.png

it would appear that i have been paying to park the mazda several times this month when i know i’ve been driving the bini !

note to self : check the correct reg number next time :) 

i guess the wardens must knock off early round here

I’ve spent 10mins in pouring rain trying to enter the reg of the TIPO into a meter for free parking. Always came back as not valid until I realised I was using the x1/9 suffix gma not gua of the TIPO.

A couple of months back I did pay for parking for the Meriva I've not owned for 2 years instead of for the Nissan.

I bought some pans recently, supposedly made for induction hobs then a week or so later I picked up a set of le cruset pans at a boot sale 

The le cruset are fantastic on induction, the small pan heats a ½  litre of water from tap to boiling in under 2 minutes 

The chinashite ones, I could still dip my fingers in the pan after 2 minutes

I thought that there was a "Tankshite" thread.  If there is I have been hopeless at finding it.

So dumping this here.
