B.D.S. Your Delivery Is Our Concern

[Bucketeer]

It's nice to arrive and see the top mechanic from Snagglepuss Motors prepping your loan car.

 

 

I'm going to need a big net to catch all the pants that will drop as I cruise past in this honey.

You can't sully a fine lady like that with something so uncouth as veg oil.

I think you may be a little too late there...

[The Moog]

The little pug mostly works. Got some light shenanigans that will post up later.

 

Currently the bucket man is using a golf to blow the tyres up and stuffing leaves in his ears ready for the 50mph drone.

 

He has also sat in a Rover.

[Supernaut]

Bucketeer is back.

Who won that in the Roffle?????

[Bucketeer]

A little stop off before heading way down south. So far so good with the Peugeot.

 

[Bucketeer]

A brief but very pleasant meeting with the always delightful Cavcraft saw the Peugeot loaded with precious cargo to be delivered to another shiter.

 

 

I set off southwards in what can only be described as 'yet more flipping rain' and I am now preparing to leave Keele services after having the most enjoyable of wees which it feels like I have been holding in for a week.

 

 

The 205 is growing on me more and more as we get to know each other better. Even the cherry bomb isn't as loud as I'd feared at motorway speeds.

So far, I would mark it happyfruit/10.

 

 

Many many thanks to Snagglepuss for loaning me the red rocket. What a mate.

For god’s sake, don’t let mrs Snagglepuss know you’re only borrowing it....she thinks he’s sold it to you and when it reappears in due course, he’s going to tell her he won it back in a roffle...

youve heard of the lady in the lake or the trevor gadge in brookside under the patio (i would use another example but thats just too grim)

 

this is the cant catch me body in a bag in a 205 - hope you can outrun them alex

[Bucketeer]

^^^^ Outrunning them would be futile, they could follow the noise of the Cherry Bomb from ten miles away.

 

 

It dawned on me as I was pimping down the M40 that I've only had about 30 minutes of painful bus sleep since I got up yesterday morning, so I've pulled over briefly just north of Oxford for a double helping of explosive coffee. I don't feel that tired but better safe than sorry.

Only another couple of hours of driving before I reach my rest stop for the night.

Non turbo diesels really need silencers, they're noisy buggers without the noise cancelling effect of a turbo.

[somewhatfoolish]

From the guide book -

 

'<snip>

 

Milton Keynes, it's my kind of town.'

Should be read with Telly Savalas narrating it in your head.

[The Moog]

I am sure the noise will keep you awake what you sitting at on the motorway?

 

And missus Puss does know it has been lent to Alex - perhaps the length of borrowing may not have been made clear. But that is a discussion for another day.

[hairnet]

missus puss lmao

 

did you get a slap in yours when she realised itll be returning

[The Moog]

Nah ... Hopefully a rover will be gone sooner rather than later

I'm surprisingly enamoured by the noise it makes through the Cherry Bomb. To my ears it's not obscenely loud and there's a nice faint whoosh, almost like a turbo. Also, it starts sounding very reminiscent of a TU rather than a clattery XUD when you load it.

[Bucketeer]

what you sitting at on the motorway?

 

I kept it around a nice sedate indicated 67-68mph most of the time on the motorway. That feels like a sweet spot. It's happy, almost eager, to go higher but that's not really my kettle of tea.

At an indicated 63mph the exhaust emits a resonant tone that starts many bits of trim and the sunroof rattling. One mph above or below and it disappears.

 

Anyway it's done us proud today. 300+ miles without a hiccup, and every one of those miles I had a smile on my face.

cos of the pills

[Cavcraft]

cos of the piles

 

EFA, M8.

[hairnet]

must be some big comfy cushion then

[bangernomics]

Should be read with Telly Savalas narrating it in your head.

I remember the Birmingham one he did, my kind of town etc.

[Bucketeer]

That's why I finished it with 'Milton Keynes, my kind of town.' I love Telly's Birmingham promo film.

[Bucketeer]

I spent a nice day yesterday pottering about the south east in the 205 doing errands, but it's back to delivering duties this morning.

First stage - cherry bomb my way round the M25.

[Bucketeer]

Wake up M25, the XUD express is coming through.

The variable speed limit should be set to reflect the 96 mph XUD max speed!
