As if the still dismantled Meteor engine wasn't enough of "useless man toy", I've now been offered second refusal on the cockpit section (i.e. front 10 feet) of a Sea King helicopter when the current owner finishes renovating it for sale next year. I'm seriously considering it too.....
I think I need an intervention....
Au contraire, i think you need more useless man toysI think I need an intervention....
Which reminds me, now that im rid of the ex, there is nothing stopping me from getting one of those fancy engine block coffee tables, aside from them being rather impractically heavy. Bloke in the dutch alfa scene did one with a fully built up 1.7 16v boxer lump (heads, belts and all), dont know how i would get something like that up the stairs to the living room..
Ill be keeping my eyes peeled for cheap alfa V6 engines. (and resist the temptation to swap said lump into the 147

Unless you start at the beginning of it.
Update - now it's not but the classics from the Mrs is.
Did any of the other chaps get out?Unless you start at the beginning of it.

I'm not sure they know about The Towers and the sanctuary of The Secret Cupboard. Or the confused welcome that awaits them here courtesy of Battert and Mrs B.
They could sleep in the Small Barn until we recover the camp beds from the attic.
I'll go and oversee the making of some soup.
It's not half past ten, the corner shop in the village will still be open. Take the old grocer's bike and get some bread and milk. And tea. Ride along the tow path.

You`re really Gggg Granville are`nt you?!!!!It's not half past ten, the corner shop in the village will still be open. Take the old grocer's bike and get some bread and milk. And tea. Ride along the tow path.
Taking the bike? Make sure you watch out for the mooring ropes though
Boo.
Back at work.......and this happens.
Driven 1 mile from the yard.
In front is a 7.5t,with rear shutter open,not supposed to drive with it open.
Pulls away,2 large boxes fall out,stacked across the lorry ,so bound to fall out.
Me.....hoot hoot ......he stops 50 yards up the road for the lights.
Gets out,looks at boxes ,point to himself in a "are they mine ?" way.
Comes back to pick them up.
I was about to get out to drag them to the pavement.
Well done TNT......

Morning chaps, I've made it over OK. Anyone know for sure what happened? I heard that a frenzied mod had hidden the Banter thread in a hangar at Luton airport, but then rumours will be rife for a while I guess.
Don't know. A mysterious mystery of a mysterious nature, I reckon. I sent a non-coded PM to V6 but so far have had no response.I've sent a note to PH regarding the disappearance of the General Banter topic. So far we have:
1. There was zero swearing
2. There was zero racism
3. No Mod came on to say there were issues
4. There were no email warnings
5. It was all just good natured surreal humour that we all enjoyed contributing to.
So, on this this thread, can the mods please explain why General Banter (retry) has been removed??
