ITS BEEN A SORT of P...head evening.The Dragon has just come in and said "YOU are on that Lotus site AGAIN ?"
"First timre this week " I say ...Dont think she believes me..... had a few beers now and I dont care any more, WELL until I get downastairs and start looking for the evening meal .
HOPE , its not in the bin... Cos ... Women are like elephants ( not drunk ) but with memory , Like it always comes back and bites your arse when you least expect it ......
Illustration.
We had a young lady architect round recently to do some calcs. and drgs. for the extension ( she was young enough to be my grandaughter ! )
She was a lovely girl and I remarked to the resident dragon after she left " I think I am in love, what a little darling SHE was ! "
WRONG MOVE !!!!!! WARNING, WARNING !!!!
Be warned all you young fellers out there .....Honesty does NOT pay.
This evidence has resurfaced many times since and always when I am at a disadvantage through a minor misdemeanour !
Without doubt the female mind is a very complex thing, unlike us thicko ,laid back , short memoried males.
If we want something we take it . game over ...on to the next thing.......
They have a different agenda, These creatures......... which ensures they take EVERYTHING !!
Probably why the divorce rate is so high !
Licking my wounds,
Mike
I have done 43 years, so there is absolutely no hope for me.

Guys,
My coolers left aluminium sections in the steel ends of the pipes - slow solution but effective is to get a very very strong solution of sodium hydroxide (caustic soda) in a glass jar and leave the ends in there - all the aluminium was gone in 4 days - and the steel was lovely and clean.
Note the reaction gets quite hot and I managed to hole an old coffee jar during the reaction..
Its quite entertaining to watch it fizz.. if you have some time to burn..
Quite clever lateral thinking Simon, but what happened to the idea of using a die...........?

[ But please also keep in mind (so you don't have yet another costly mishap) that the 2nd gear synchro is traditionally weak in our Renault gearboxes. I usually won't go over 3,500 RPM in 1st gear. But in 2nd (and in subsequent gears), I let her rip. The 1st to 2nd transition should not be done at high RPMs, this is to preserve the 2nd gear synchro.

I understand the fish was a real pain in make-up. A proper little diva!
Gentlemen , What we are witnessing in exhibit 'A'.............is the birth of Fishy......even at that early age there is a trace of ginger fins/hair starting to form !!!
NOW , we know why Fishy will only drive a G car !

TOP Biker Karl !!!
Well done mate " Its not what ya got its the way that you use it !"
Mike

IMO there is but ONE Mustang...........
The Shelby version was good but...
There was no more charisma than this car had. What a way to sell a car to the public................and the soundtrack by Lalo Schrifrin was SOOOoooo cool..
(AND the first 'Stangs in the UK were prepared at our workshop for an assault on the Monte by Alan Mann for Ford USA in secret)
Happy days........

I agree there Mike, there seems to be no 'standard' for what is acceptable in terms of punishment.
I'm still trying to figure out what 'reasonable force' is while confronting a knife wielding intruder in your home.
My answer to the police diktat " You will go to jail " was " Lets have a dead villain first "
Seemed to go down quite well with the law !!!

My point was that in a human environment these bollards are 'unusual' (and I had not seen them before.)
Accidents will happen and some innocent person will suffer a greater punishment than they deserve for a simple misdemeanour or lack of awareness.
I fully agree with those that say they got what they deserve IF they tried to 'Jump' the timing mech. , however when my factory was broken into for the fourth time and I remarked to the fuzz that I will wire up the recently fitted window bars to the mains,
"Oh no you cannot do that sir, that is a criminal offence of knowingly harming someone, you will go to jail !"
Fitting a bollard that can knowingly harm a person is not showing a " Duty of care" to which we all as employers and citizens have to adhere, that is quite simply the point I was making.

Ok so back to the original thread. What piccies you had? What deals have you done? (Mr Ring, I know you've been busy negotiating a block deal!)
O.K. Pinkie,Me old Mukka,

Stone me !! the rozzers ave got a copper wiv a camera ter do some dodgy shots that they are trying ter fit me up like, fer speedin on the A11 ! Summat abaht outrunnin the helicopter ? Not me chief, lots of silver cars out there , are yer shure it wern't a Onda !

IF that is not the most dangerous WEAPON that I have seen on the road, then I dont know what is.
I find these videos far from amusing , it just shows the stupid hare brained depths our car hating council leaders are pushing us into.
A perfectly innocent visitor to the town looking for the correct street........ inadvertantly takes a wrong turn.......... elderly passengers............. a death ? ( The van passenger was thrown to the windscreen in a violent manner. This accident was not speed related,but still someone was badly hurt.)
Not thought out, typical local planning dept lack of intelligence. In our town the main A road through it is reduced by 'traffic calming' bottlenecks causing cyclists to wobble into the gap. How many deaths are needed to stop these tree hugging nutters creating hazards ?

They were serving something, but to descibe as bacon butties may be infringing trades descriptions!
I found the food passable but I had problems understanding the local dialect / patois !

Have I allowed enough time to get to the PP?!
I guess we ought to allow another 15 to 20 mins depending on the law being on the prowl !
Whats the rush to get there by 9 am ?
We will only be standing around in the cold for a lot longer than we need !

I shall set my alarm and keep the obligatory can of Red Bull by the bed...
