Amazon. Links on my laptop so can’t post it sorry. Search for blizzard bay xmas religious sweater.

Blizzrd bay and tipsy elves have some great, albeit non pc, options. They wouldn’t actually deliver this one to me so had to use a freight forwarder. I’m in the middle east so Hoping customs let it through!

I thought about that one but the trousers just repeat the belly graphic and thus not going far enough as to make it worthwhile hehe

I also got these trousers and t shirt. Yes, i will look like a tt; yes, it is very ‘office comedian’; no, i don’t care

I wanted a suit and T-shirt, but the sizing available was so vague I just went with a jumper, proper suit for next year.

I managed to talk myself into buying this whilst walking through Horsham one day recently.



Since then I have also bought this one:



And most recently this one (which I am just waiting for delivery on)



The artist is a chap called Mark Davies, and he has some amazingly retro pieces.

Well... After owning a S197 GT500, S197 v6 Mustang and an S550 Mustang I had to scratch my classic Mustang itch and I have always wanted one biggrin

So now have an S8, 500 Abarth and a D2 Disco... one may have to go now sadly!

So a large chunk of the new (to us) house renovation budget was spent on this:

Very nice Mustang! Did you plan & look for one or was it a proper frivolous look at the internet on a wet afternoon and just get it job!

If we’re doing vehicles...

Currently have 3 bikes and two cars, two of the bikes are from 1985 and require a bit of upkeep.
I also had a significant job change this year so have much less spare time and less spare cash.

What I obviously need is a project bike!
Something Italian so the electrics will be good, older so it’s got corroded bits (project bike), crashed so it’s cheap and with no history as I like a gamble.

Boredom is a terrible thing.


The pretty side


The no so pretty side, all the fairings bar the seat unit are pretty much scrap.

What I’m intending to do to it.

That look right.... proportion, wheels, colour, presence, stance... just 'right'.

Been wanting one a while, but all of a sudden seen a lovely red coupe which then ended up becoming a fast back once I thought long and hard, so a £15K purchase became a £35k purchase

funny thing was the wife told me to get the fast back as I would regret getting a coupe!! (she's deffo a keeper!)
