  1. Thanks Michael. I really enjoyed owning it overnight. I hereby donate it back to the club, under the rock solid care of Michael. Not sure where this will go, but the potential effect on the worlds economy has to make it a worthwhile effort.
  2. I'll take it then please. And I immediately donate it back to the club. Yes, I know its obscenely generous of me, but at least I could say that however briefly, I owned a flashing Toyota phone sticker. I'm welling up here. You sure know how to ring my emotional bell.
  3. I was genuinely upset when an ex-member on here wrote off my old aerotop TT a year or two ago. I'd be heartbroken if the one I have now got damaged etc. Never felt that way about any other cars I've owned.
  4. Yup....some good deals at the moment Jamie
  5. At least for the time being, our product as an export is about 25% cheaper when purchased abroad. Ironically, this devaluing of the pound is a good thing right now, for the company I work for and I suspect many others.
  6. ...Parked up at the Bosch place, reg was RAZ or REZ I think. How did you find the roads this morning ?
  7. Irrational maybe. Take Jonathan Ross or that spud called Brand...they are sometimes funny guys, but I dislike their personas. The Mighty Boosh just leave me cold. Their material delivered by others (such as jelly babies) could well be a winner. It wasn't them, so I don't have to suffer the moral turmoil.
  8. We either have a weak pound and attractive pricing for those abroad buying british manufactured exports, or a strong pound and attractive prices for those here buying foreign made imports. Either scenario affects labour volume and pay rates in opposite ways, and whilst our workers get taxed at a constant never fluctuating level, any short term balance achieved for long term growth will never last long enough to kick-start incentives by those companies that could make a difference. Change of balance at the level required would take generations, beyond our lifetimes. By then, technologies and manufacturing expertise will be so spread out and comparative world wide, that the geographical area of manufacture will not matter any more. 'Made on Earth' will be the norm....after that, taxation, healthcare and social safety will determine what makes a country great.
  9. I loved this until someone told me it was the assclowns from Mighty Boosh. I went right off it. If you are telling me its someone else now, then I rest easy.

    Anyone ever told you you look like Bonnie Tyler ?
  15. I've still got the fish that I found in my underpants. Slightly sweaty but basically a decent example of an anchovy. Yes Michael, it could be yours. Sorry guys, but I reckon the stickers mine.

    Heya

    TT mpg....average 18 / 19. Slightly more if a lot of motorway driving. Max about 28/30...min depends on how you drive. N/A mpg....no idea, but a search in here will reveal all. I seem to remember someone posting around 26 mpg.
  17. Chill Martin....you seem a little intents.
  18. "now is the winter of our discounted tents" (he posts yet again in the vain hope of at least a titter)
  19. Cats and dogs have similar prints as far as the pad layout goes, but cats walk with their claws retracted so their prints don't have the triangular pointy claw marks like dogs do.
  20. You were very lucky. The animal that left those tracks is well known in Northamptonshire...it leaves 50p pieces on the ground and hides in the bushes, and when someone bends over to pick them up, it rushes up behind you and goodnight Vienna.
