After testing the AED on my heap, the usual problem of it not switching off has appeared, so the manual chokes are now on. It also needs a new brake cylinder but eBay provided one.

Does collecting shonky piles of mobile rust and volatile mechanical parts count as a hobby ?

Must be too much cheese .
I hope it wasn't Parmigiano, or dream dust as i call it , guaranteed to give you dreams from the deepest depth of your subconscious .


oh now you have given me the bv in the marylebone traffic, in his shirt tie and fluffy socks/sussys glued to his leather seat in the daaaaaaaaimler by his bare buttocks, smoking a fat cigar, nodding at the ladeeeeezzz. leeeering .

i think this deserves a cartoon.

Because of the association of senior legal beagles with ladeez of specialist services is this a post graduate course that a chap has to pass to rise to the upper realms of the legal profession ?
Are they sworn into an inner sanctum ?
Are the said ladeez given a list of members .
Could one get a list of the female members of the inner sanctum.
Or is it automatic admittance on purchase of a Daimler .

Back to cars, I have been raiding eBay, found a new rear valance, and various other bits. Not too spenner. I am quite keen to drive the car as I have barely touched it since buying it.

How many ,like me have made the mistake of renovating an interior before the rest of the car is up to standard .
Most old jags and the like are comparatively easy to make very comfortable inside .
If the car is in drivable condition, tooling around town enjoying the view out helps to forget the shabby exterior .
Now I always do the interior last .
