Drove perfectly from the bottom of the ocean where it'd been since 1978 to that spot by the looks of it.

I'm tempted top think you're a bit of a nutter.

Benidorm pays emotional tribute to late star Bobby Knutt - Birmingham Live

I've a picture of the (late) Bobby Knutt in that very shirt posed with Mrs BMH in Benidorm in March 2017. He only lived about three miles from us.

Oh, cars, yes those Escorts were shite.

If you have a current V5 then the on-line service is still great, but if you don't have a log book and then have to apply (by post) for one, it's taking absolutely forever. Got to be 3 months minimum since I applied for one, rumours are of people saying 4 months or more for theirs and still no sign of it.

I've had two done by post in the past couple of months.  First one exactly 3 weeks, second one a couple of days longer.  Pretty much what I would have expected in pre-Covid days really!

I'd say that Xant is bang on the money now. It's the twin of mine, so somebody on here should buy it for no other reason than being able to park them side by side at some point

I never knew about the double rear window until today. Solving a problem no-one really ever had.

Thanks for that, I’m now the highest bidder and don’t really like XMs. I knew that dodgy Super-U cider was stronger than I thought.

I doubt it's ever been much cheaper than this to buy a running sleeve valve motor, although it seems pretty noisy so perhaps there's disaster afoot. Wood though, even with the utterly horrid retrim.

Smokey and gruesomely weddingised alas. With black paint and dark red leather possibly originally. That smoke...'they all do that sir...'...really?

Fantastic cars...I had one. Pity about the engine - a re-engineered C which was very sluggish. Longbridge built a Rover V8 prototype. Was very popular and some extra power wd have suited the car. Build your own?

Sleeve valves smoke like a 80-a-day nicotine fiend even in good health, so that wouldn't worry me nearly as much as that horrible trim.

I went looking for a Kewet Buddy because of the 'Cars you didn't know...' thread, but found nowt; I did find these which are almost as shite. Behold the Think!. Electro-shite for the discerning motorist.

Knackered flavour for 592 yoyos

I locked myself out of the house a few weeks ago,  went out with the wrong keys , everybody else went out before I got back.

The garden gate is on a combination lock so I got in the garden , 2 hours to kill , 4 bottles of cloudy cider from the fridge in the offy , sunny afternoon .

By the time they got back i'd drunk all 4 , only I was proper pissed , could barely walk , staggered upstairs and spent the afternoon in bed , proper hangover too after.

When I looked at the bottles ,7.3% , mrs wack still had her grumpy face on, afternoon plans scuppered
