  1. Congrats, wait until you feel those running costs!
  2. Yeah, 20th April and booked.
  3. They sit in spare bedroom when not on.
  4. Ok, guess I better man up then.
  5. As the weather's been so kind I put the summer wheels and r888's on a couple of weeks ago. Now falling temps and the prospect of snow has me a tad concerned. Have I gone too early and should I put the Falkens back on for a while?
  6. Aggregate score of 7-7 and Brian Clough would have been 77 yesterday......spooky.
  7. I had to do jury service a couple of years ago, at the Old Bailey so no parking issues as I had to suffer rush hour commute on the trains and it was boiling at the time. First couple of days were much as you described, lots of waiting around, but no chance of fresh air as once you're in you're in for the day apart from lunch. Finally got picked for a case, 16 year old kid stabbed and killed by a 17 year old (lovely). The scary thing was most of the jurors seemed to have taken a wrong turn on the way to Jeremy Kyle's studio. We had 9 days of forensic evidence, witness statements, cctv to get through then retired to consider our verdict. This took 2 days as most of the jury appeared to have not listened to previous 9 days of blurb, and it had to be explained again. Some of the jury were so easily swayed one way or the other, like the guy in the Fast Show who can never make his mind up. Murder verdict arrived at eventually, and at least 18 years for the perp. The most depressing 3 weeks in summer I've ever had, sordid and nasty stuff. I had been passed over for the case before this one, which was a double, drug dealer murder which went on for 6 weeks so could have been worse. Really hope I never get picked again or have to be judged by my "peers".
  8. Cheers, first place I'll check.
  9. Thanks, that's what I was thinking/hoping it was. On it tomorrow; is this what an NA feels like?
  10. On a spirited drive today, went to overtake... gave it a boot and there was a pop/bang/hiss and loss of boost. Stopped for an uneducated poke about under the bonnet but being a mechanical ignoramus all I got was dirty. Car still drives and sounds and feels fine but go near boost levels and it hisses loudly but no more. What have I done to it?
  11. Watching The F1 Show on Sky....very good so far, slick as you'd expect from Sky with great team access. And Georgie 'sigh' another sports channel. another nail in the marriage coffin.
  12. There's a big Country and Western hit in there
  13. "him" ? Mine's definitely a female, as far as running costs go anyway. Is there a method for "sexing" a Supra?
  14. Aw touching....but I am a sucker for soppy dog stories.
  15. And now our glorious Whitehall leaders are going to cut subsidised housing etc for our armed forces. Lions led by chinless, spineless Ruperts who've never done a real days' work and certainly never risked more than a hangover. I am seething. Rip boys ( all aged 20 or 19 apart from 33 yr old section leader.)
  16. That's a gorgeous Supra, great job dude.
  17. Nemesis

    Fuelly

    If my mpg was public knowledge I'd have Greenpeace camped in my garden!
  18. Just watched Near Dark again, 1987 movie. Cracking flick, as good as I remembered. Directed by Kate (Point Break) Bigelow. Vampires in a Winabago on tour.
  19. Waited a long time for a movie to rival the exorcist for scares, this may do it.
  20. Landed a helicopter on the one on Top Gear... that may be an optional extra though.
