DWs old BX (above). It passed my work the other day whilst I was standing outside...

 

Ace! Poor thing is hideously overdue a service, but my mate who now owns it is horrifically skint. Tempted to go for a holiday in Kent with an oil filter and some fresh oil!

Got up this morning and did a 10 mile walk in Hampshire. It was lovely and I was up before most people. On the way back saw 2 sherpa coupes broken down at the side of the road with middle aged gents tinkering. As my gf pointed out, their wives wore expressions that said it wasnt the first time

I ran out of welding gas yesterday so my plans for a full week weldathon have been halted so instead this moring I got out my bed at 12, watched some TV about hotrods and have been sitting playing my guitar for the last hour. Class. My weekends have been so dedicated to welding up that lump that I'd forgotten how good just sitting on your arse is.

Starting doing deliveries for a second job and already have spotted some prime chod. Montego estate, mk.2 Granada, C plate Scimitar GTE and more. Didn't have time to take pics, but I know where they are now

Still Game's my favourite thing off telly in my lifetime, I think.

 

*possibly excluding the Wire, West Wing, and that sort of thing. But for British comedy, it's top drawer. The DVD box set's currently on offer somewhere IIRC as well.

Superb! I used a picture of 'Beige cat' (internet thing) and he's valued at £1.31.

Sweet, that's enough for a trip to Burger King and a net reduction in the amount of hair I have to remove from work clothes

 

 

There wasn't a tick box for the factory option of adding extra claws though, which I believe increases retail value

[Inspector Morose]

Shit. Only changed my avatar this morning to that too. Seems a few B3TA lovers on here too?

Cool, C U L8ERZ PUSS.

In other news. Just got back from Cornwall where I got married last Tuesday. Proper shite style affair; wedding car was other halfs unwashed new panda; photographer turned up in a rover 45 and the ceremony was rounded off with all six of us (me, swmbo and four guests) roping up to a chippy on Portreath beach front for fish and chips all round! Just about the best time I've had in my 40 years on the planet so far!

[autofive]

congrats on your nuptuals

[eddyramrod]

Yay, congrats Metrobi! Many happy years

Went to an aunts' 75th birthday last week, all the family on my mothers side was there (35ish people) in 10 cars plus my aunties microcar:

 

 

 

9 French cars, 1 French microcar, and our 'black sheep' Daihatsu (not pictured are my parents black Kangoo and the JDM).

2 things about my new uber-modern VauxSaab.

 

1: When you press the extra button on the remote, the sidelights + side marker lights + interior lights come on and it looks dead arty in the dark.

 

2: Under the boot floor there is LOADS of space around the spare wheel/kit, which as so far swallowed an electric tyre inflator pump, jump leads, a can of that emergency pucture repair tyre-goo, some gloves, and a load of other bits that used to live in a big box in the back of all my other cars. You'd never no they're there!

 

It's still too new though, I'm going to have to scan even more old brochures to assuage my guilt.

[The Moog]

Congrautlations Metrobi.

 

Was it really autoshite?

Was the bride wearing beige with patches of oxide on her?

were her plates dealer spec?

did she come with a spare socket to hammer over in case of issues?

Headlamps Talking

 

Headlamps Talking is the unusual unique yet quirky forum where members imagine at the end of the day their vehicle talks to another vehicle about their days adventures. Come on let your imagine run riot with headlamps talking stories, anecdotes and more.

I suppose if his brother David can talk to plants there's nowt wrong with having a conversation with some lights now and then?

Christ, my cars would not have much to say. Sat outside the house all day, the postman came, a few people came past walking dogs I maybe got driven to Morrisons in the evening to pick up a Dr Okter pepperoni pizza and a bottle of vino collapso.

 

Probably as much of a reflection of my life as much as that of my cars.

[Pete-M]

Oh look, you're rusting.

I wish my cars would shut up once in a while, they're forever telling me to pull over and kill a prostitute.

That's the voices in your head. You've been forgetting to take the purple pills again...

Motorway Cops on BBC 1 now. Bloke on an ultra shite bike with a towel wrapped around the cylinder head to stop oil lekaing on to his leg and carrying his dog in a trailer made out of an oil drum.

 

So come on then, which one of you was it?
