What makes you grin? Antidote to grumpy thread

Bobby know-it-all from round the way asked us to recover in his high quality* hot hatch in, one we had already told him was in poor shape 6 months ago when he first got it.

 

The ignition barrel we informed him was worn has failed, as has the recon starter. The balljoints that were knackered 6 months ago haven't been fixed by the french car fairies either.

I inspected the car for it's mot, the rear beam is knackered and there are 4 areas of extensive rot.

 

If he'd bought any more of a pup, it'd be wagging it's tail whilst pissing up his leg.

Our cat has just power oversteered the full length of our kitchen, straight into a cardboard box. She thinks she's Starksy and Hutch.

That looks really nice, one of the better looking bikes of its type to my eye.

This is an ace documentary from the 80s about Sinclair computers.

That looks great, bookmarked. But what's going on with the sound?! I'm assuming it was made in mono but it sounds like its in hyper stereo originating from inside my brain, it almost hurts. 

 

e: I need to know, I want to apply that effect to every song in my iTunes library.

I sold my Volvo on ebay for £249. It was a really good car, but was 'surplus to requirements'. I did 8000 miles in it as it only went wrong once, the day after buying it. It was the crank sensor.

I met the bloke in Lime Street station and after saying hello, he handed the money over, signed the docs and was off. I'll be saying soon I shouldn't have sold it, it was a brilliant car.

Car Mechanic Simulator 2014. Pretty good fun. It has the facility to be hooky, and fit secondhand clutches etc..

 

I'm trying my hand at a few mods.

Found a Mk1 Escort service manual in a secondhand bookshop.

Plan is to leverage barnfindfrenzy and maybe throw some dust on it before advertising it for an OSF friendly price.

I thought you might appreciate these snapshots of the £250 Princess that should be delivered tomorrow.  It's what, in my professional opinion, is deemed 'not too terrible'.

Vulgalour : Another word for Autoshitist. A thing that apears to have.....

 

1. NO MONEY

2. Nowhere to keep cars

3. Family threatening to evict said person.

 

And he buys another car that doesn't go.

 

Top autoshiting young man !

If it is sound-ish, I may even have to express a desire to own it. Orange Wedge! Fabulous.

Yeah they look great in that colour scheme, orange with black interior.

 

Parents threatening to kick you out? Simply fill their garden with BL Princesses.

The most bizarre thing is that the funds have come from the parentals for this one, without my asking, I have literally no idea what's going on with them but gift horses and mouths and all that.  I do only have a week to make a decision, strip a car down and get rid of the remains though so it's not all sunshine and roses.
