  1. Cancel Bonfire night, it's a sectarian celebration anyway!
  2. Why was the air hostess in the cockpit anyway?
  3. Can't help thinking that if it's a 1970 car, why is it wearing an "L" reg. from 1973? A standard looking but mechanically uprated 911 would've been way cooler than that mongrel.
  4. Back on topic...... Charlotte's all woman! That's Peroni talking!
  5. 997 or XK-R Although I have no plans in selling anytime soon.
  6. No money for NHS, military, cutting child benefit etc etc. but there is still a trough of money for this nonsense! A total waste of public money imho.
  7. White lights facing front, red lights facing rear and amber lights facing side on. Although this legislation seems to suggest either red or amber are allowed for side markers! Confusing, or what?
  8. NCIS series 8 starts on 22nd October.
  9. Had to get a Cat 1 alarm fitted to get insurance when I picked mine up from the garage. I paid the garage to fit a Clifford Alarm and received a certificate. The certificate wasn't filled in correctly and the insurance company refused to accept it! The garage was in Bradford, so hardly worth chasing them up. I had to pay £20 for a confirmation of installation certificate from an auto electrician in Glasgow, a 180 mile round trip!
  10. If the key is for McGard locking nuts, stick it in a jiffy bag 2nd class. The key will break soon enough and the lump hammer and old socket will have to come out anyway. I've had to 'forcibly' remove the locking nuts twice after having broken keys on my other car.
  11. Sunroofs always leak where I live, so I would walk on by.
  12. My medical advisor across the breakfast table suggests that you trade up to Co-codamol instead of Paracetemol at 8/500 strength, which is available over the counter.
  13. They are all the same, the generic medicines are made to the same 'recipe' as brand names in the uk. Why are you taking paracetemol for pneumonia?
  14. Bad idea, petroleum jelly etc will rot rubber. Get a pot of Hepworth's silicon grease from a plumbers merchant or 3 in 1 silicon oil in an aerosol and keep it in the garage. An application of silicon grease or oil will also stop the rubber blocks squeaking on the tailgate surround. Silicon oil is the correct lube for car locks too.
  15. Very carefully with an impact driver!
  16. Just jumped on board on FB, how do I get a sticker?
  17. Sorry to hear this sad news, I hadn't met your dad but I enjoyed his posts on here. It's difficult to lose your dad Kris, my thoughts are with you and your family at this difficult time.
  18. Watch River City, Glasgow's own tv soap with characters with names like shell-suit Bob! Search out for it on BBC1 Scotland, 971 or 990 on Sky.
  19. It's amazing how useful it is to get a once in a lifetime offer to have a new kitchen fitted/get double glazing/get a conservatory/get uPVC Fascia and Soffit whilst you're sitting eating your dinner. To all cold callers, FECK OFF!
  20. Paint it up like a WWII Japanese Imperial Navy aircraft from 1945. Kamikaze flight were usually one way too!
  21. For low price registrations, you can't beat the DVLA. I have two similar plates on my two cars with my initials for £250 each including the transfer costs.
  22. They're reasonably popular up my way, know a handful of folks with them, ultra reliable but only 25 ish mpg.
