Oooh Wardell, you bitch.

"Flat" indeed. That was the A material you swine. Well done on your Tapes thing. Liked the "warranty" gag.

As a point of order, although you're a big man but you're out of shape whilst me, I do this for a living, since the "living" I make from Sniff Petrol is precisely bugger all I guess it counts as "fun" too. So there.

Oh I don't know, I thought general Russianess would have been the obvious thing. And let's face it, Smellynski does look somewhere shy of his 13th birthday. Personally I thought the TVR thing on Sniff Petrol worked okay but the eyebrows piece was a bit silly and odd. Tch, shows how much I know.

PS I don't actually own a TVR. My Sniff Petrol link tracker thingy brought me here, rather than ownership of a fruity Blackpudlian sports car.

PPS Was the other reference you're talking about the "big man" thing? It's - rather badly - paraphrased from Get Carter.

Oi, Wardell you old fart, I'll have you know I'm 29. 29 and a half. Nearly. Besides, any old fule can write an Evo column - as we both know - and knocking out a tatty webpage a month isn't that difficult, regardless of your age. But owning a car company when you're in your 20s, that's an entirely different kettle of ball games.

I've heard that Nik Smelly is a bit of a tough cookie but in my book that makes it even funnier to portray him as some excitable pre-teen. Watch out for The Sekrit Diary of Nikolai Smolenski (age 12 1/2) on Sniff Petrol soon...

Satirical car show pitch to Channel 4? Don't remember that. Spotted ability early? Not as early as Mr Couchman, headmaster of Gorsey Bank Primary School. When I was six he awarded me second prize in the annual design a Christmas card competition. I won 50p. That's talent spotting for you.

PS Have you just compared yourself to LJK Setright? Were you at the single malt last night?

Double wammy... I thought the Smolenski piece was very entertaining (sorry LA) and particularly liked:

Copyright Sniff Petrol, Aquadrome etc. etc.



Incidentally, did PS really shave his tash off because of your challenge, or was it just a happy coincidence?

Yes, unless I've been sorely deceived Peter Stevens really did shave his 'tache off because Sniff Petrol dared him to. What a top bloke he is.

Thanks, Max-Thrust. I'm having fun too, only it's kinda awkward boxing and gripping a zimmer simultaneously.


"zimmer" is that your nickname for it. Don't grip it too hard is my advice, if you do then have some kleenex handy!

A zimmer frame, Max-Thrust, as well you know. I'd be careful about sexual innuendo with your monicur.


Max-thrust has nothing to do with my Skoda Estelle I can assure you.

OK, I'll keep a lid on the inuendo, wouldn't want to get an old man too excited!
