Yea but not for tomorrow...

 

It might be alright though, as a mate has a spare bulb fr his old disastra that doesn't fit his current Skoda so if all else fails then I still won't have to buy any...

Very minor grump, but I'm on a course in Middlesbrough at the mo' - Flew into Leeds Bradford last night and collected my hire car...

I did beg for a Chevy Spark, or something less embarrassing, but rental man apologised and said it was that or nothing.

 

Future autoshite?

I was following one of those monster Fiat 500's yesterday, I think they may actually be bigger than the new mini, it certainly dwarfed a Golf that it was next to in a queue of traffic.

Taking irrational dislikes to strangers is one of the great pleasures in life. :D

I dont care that my reversing lights aren't working, why are you telling me? May as well be telling the wall. Tell you what, I'll continue the theme of pointlessness and tell my boss too.

Bastard boiler again.

 

Had enough now, getting an estimate for a new one. Just had possibly the coldest night of the year here, no sleep because of the cold.

 

I could do a Basil Fawlty on it, but it would exact revenge by blowing me up.

Modern cars really are hideous, new car buyers obviously have no taste these days. Nice colour scheme though

The Fiat 500 extra lard is really gawping. When I was looking at cars a while back you could get a really good spec one for absolute peanuts but I couldn't bring myself to do it. That's from the owner of a Nissan Juke!

Spent all day making a fucking paper template of a random bit of minor "as an exercise so you don't waste metal" er what the actual fuck....

 

Would say I was a good thing as we fucked about all day but then I remember I actually paid to go to college

I feel like I've been drugged with Picolax. Shitting through the eye of a needle and I think my arse is actually on fucking fire.

Waited in for a parcel but popped out to take Lanky jnr to school. Predictably as I returned home to see the TNT van disappearing round the corner.

 

Rang the number on the card and was told that the driver would come back if he had time. Of course I waited in and he didn't. Got to stay in tomorrow now.

 

Not a massive grump I know, but I need my hit of parcel excitement!

 

It's a consignment of old Toshiba laptops from 1997 too. Much excitement! I'm using one for shite Citroen lexia diagnostic software and will be flogging the others if anybody's interested.

Andy has put the 345 seats in his pants?!? :-D I think he's misunderstood the expression 'driving by the seat of your pants'.

Fiat 500L - made in the rebuilt Zastava/Yugo factory I believe, so it certainly has all the right attributes

Tweed pants. Not for the faint hearted.

Well, it's pretty much been confirmed that I'm missing out on the 1986 Sterling I've been after for a year after my first attempt to buy it. The 2nd time now it's fallen through, so fuck it, I've had enough of waiting, it ain't meant to be, I don't want it now. There are far more pressing things to worry about like Lady_Sterling; the Syrian authorities decided not to grant her our marriage certificate due to some "technicalities" that I must now sort. It's so bloody hard just to be with my own wife. Plus I've got to go and try and get her a visa which looks like a right old war.

 

I'm considering jettisoning my collection, I know that they most of them are just going to sit there festering for a good while yet, but at least they are bone dry and safe, but I also do know though that it's gonna be hard selling them to a point where I may just weigh a few of them in and be done with it. I'm not quite there yet and I'm happy to hold onto them as they are not really costing me anything.

Some people (not on Autoshite, but actual real life) are just pond life, aren't they?

Did they come with the car? All good Volvos come with some old pants.

Sorry to hear that fella. We're here to listen if you feel you need to talk about it.

What is that, is it a 500 L? If so, I hadn't realised how monstrously ugly they are!
