eddyramrod Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 Was on my way down to my friend's garage this morning when my phone rang. I was on a back lane, so I pulled over to take the call. It's the local radio station, Rock FM, which has phone-in competitions all the time, which I almost always enter. They'd only picked my number out from all the correct answers... I AM A WINNAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! 25 euro voucher to spend in a local frozen-food shop. So naturally I dropped in to the studio to collect it, then went home for the boss and we did a quick blast round the freezers. Apple crumble for afters tomorrow! Not bad just for knowing which song the lyric came from.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimothyClaypole Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Dragged myself out of bed this morning after about 2 hours sleep to goto a car boot* selling with the weather being normal for a change. Managed to make about £180.00 so not too bad. Managed to get parked so we were stood in the shade cast by the transit (Hi Roof) which made it colder than it was. Then spent an extra hour getting home due to the M1 being closed Junction 37/36... *breaking the rules by not having an inkjet printer, footspa, stepper machine or any other car boot stall staples on the stall.

dollywobbler Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 I recently swapped a guitar effects pedal with my ol' man for a bright pink Flying V ukulele. I love it! The Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain are a massive inspiration - going to see them for the fourth time this summer when they play the big Citroen meet. Still very much getting to grips with it, so sadly no SOC-standard videos. However, I can play a lot more chords on it than I ever managed on guitar. My main stringed instrument is the bass though, so it's a bit odd switching between the two... A mild car-related grin is that the BX is now wearing the correct BX19RD badge, rather than pretending to be a 19TRS. Oh, and spring. Very much making me grin.

Angrydicky Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Lovely day today so decided not to go to the Brooklands Austin Morris Day and instead have spent the day grinding and welding on my MK1. N/S/F floorpan, both original-spec outriggers and most of the chassis rail on that side have all been replaced and the new box sections have been rustproofed with the proper weld thru primer stuff. A major step towards the car getting back on the road again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ashmicro Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Got handed a nice little surprise as I was leaving the office earlier on. Nice one! Is it any good? Seems decent enough, the camera's quite good, and the GPS yoho is pretty accurate. Gonna try it in the car later on to see what it's like. The touchscreen seems sluggish, but I think I rushed the calibration a bit. I'll factory reset it later on and set it up properly. What a great pressie!

trigger Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 That is class!, my phone is the Galaxy S II which is basically the same and that's pretty good (apart from the fact I'm using at spelling stuff on it), At least it's not Itunes either.
