Seeing Eddyramrod of this parish's recently acquired yank motor at a car show near Kendal this afternoon, a lovely looking car with a very well written guide to buying and owning classic cars without spending millions on the dashboard that really made me think I should get off my rectum and find a new toy of the automotive kind.

Didn't get to speak to Eddy unfortunately but had the pleasure of trying to tell my 83 year old Mother in law that the owner of the big white American car with the stars and stripes flags on it was an internet acquaintance so to speak,after 20 minutes of trying to explain what the internet was I gave up as a bad job and changed the subject,

Whilst I enjoy and appreciate all the French cuisine that is prepared here, I am sooooo happy tonight to have allowed free reign in the kitchen.

So, everyone here is going to experience something new - it's curry night!

EAT MY SPICE, FRENCHIES.

Went to the RIAT at RAF Fairford today.

 

Had a schlep inside a KC -135 tanker (converted boeing 707) and tried to speak to the crew. Even went into the hole at the rear where the refuelling is done mid -air.

That's about 64 mpg. Happy with that.

Wanted an Ekco A22 for absolutely ages, and now I own one. Got it very cheap (by A22 standards) off a bloke who was emigrating. It has the wrong speaker grill and backing plate, but other than needing an aerial, it works perfectly!

Looks like a kitcar off of the eBay tat thread. I thought they hit a low point with the Bangle designed stuff but this looks like something a child drew.

Bear in mind that this video was shot in 2014.......

 

 

Other memorable quotes from this Aussie are:

 

 

I was busier than a one-armed brick layer in Baghdad

 

And....

 

 

I was sweating like a gypsy with a mortgage
