Face cream and foreskins? Ew.

 

I was once offered a job as a circumciser. £100 a week plus tips.

Just doing a bit of ebay browsing for Dedra/Tipo stuff and came across this - not sure about Haynes' new marketing strategy...

My mate was sacked from the Sewage Farm. They accused him of going through the motions.

Grand Designs revisited, loads of shite in the background and somone has just been trying to drive a heavily laden Visa up a steep slope...

[eddyramrod]

Yes, I've just seen that! Even Mrs R was laughing!

[Pillock]

Ditto! Although with a Mrs_P rather than R.

I did point out I did very similar not long ago in a Saxo (surely pretty closely related?) and four half railway sleepers. Never really drove the same after that.

Today I found myself without transport as I'd sold a car lastnight and the only other one at home went in for some welding.This is not normally a problem but my retired nextdoor neighbour had the cheek to go out for the day.My storage is five miles away and I usually pay my neighbour to collect vehicles as the storage is not exactly on a bus route.So in the shed is my Raleigh Dakota mountain-bike which has not been used since the summer of 1997.Two perished innertubes and one nasty looking tyre replaced I then cleaned and adjusted the brakes and oiled the chain.Amazingly the gears seemed to work and for something that has been covered in dust and cobwebs (still is) all those years it got me the five miles I needed to go to collect a car without too much trouble.By removing the front wheel it slotted into the back of the 306 with ease at the other end.The trip was nothing like that War on Britain's roads program from last night either.

Got my fregate back today after its trip to London for filming, a very easy 400 quid that was and apparently it was used quite a bit and had Kirsten Dunst on the back seat. Cue telling everyone I met today that I "had" her on the back seat of my car. Well I thought it was funny and she is pretty fit !!. The film is out next april so I am told

....in the shed is my Raleigh Dakota mountain-bike which has not been used since the summer of 1997...

 

Ditto! Except I stopped using mine in '99 when I passed my test. It's down the side of my parents house and will be recommisioned next year (I keep telling myself).

You should be able to get a bike in complete. I use my 306 for bike collections and with back seats folded down and (sometimes) passenger seat a bit further forward, I can get large sized road bikes, mountain bikes and all manner of shit in there!

Last night I was bored so fancies a squint on You Tube for videos about starting cars in very cold climates.

 

Cam across an ace video of a BR Class 37 loco being started and run after a piston change, fugging ace, flames from the exhaust and such like. Got tired, went to go to bed and just as I was diving in a Class 37 roared past our bedroom window (Glasgow to Stirling line is about 40 or so feet away and level with the upper floor of the house).

 

Not sure if it was a Network Rail inspection train or a DRS number as it was dark but the English Electric 12 cylinder makes an unmistakeable sound.

 

What a great way to end the day.

 

Also got my Insurance renewal through from Bell today. £334 quid! Went onto Moneysupermarket and ended up getting cover through AXA for £152. I kept £150 aside for this and hoped I wouldnt have to dig deeper.

A "barn find' here. In 1919 a farmer bought 2 new model T trucks, one to use and one for spare.

the spare was never used and has now surfaced, in very good condition and not requiring any restoration other than recomissioning. Mileage from new is described as nominal. A coat of paint (which it will not get) would bring it back to shiny new condition
