I thought of no other reason for posting this other than I think it's just plain cool and an excuse for my first thread.

My wife has taken my car to work today because hers is having the windscreen replaced and left her car with me for the repair. Mines an estate with factory tinted windows on the rear quarters so at any time, you would never know what's in the boot. I got a text this morning and my wife is bringing home a friend from work to stay with us for the weekend....



This brings me to another question - has anyone else got pictures of any unusual stuff hidden in their boot, or something unexpected given the size of the vehicle?

OP, can't you accidentally 'lose' it on the way home?

My boot currently holds some oil and water, some tyre weld, some track silencers and a fuel can

It's Sully from Monsters Inc.

Can I have him please. (Dunno where he would go though, or what the Missus would say.)

Very cool!

Have you inadvertently also used to your 1st post to tell the wider PH community that you are indeed a "Furry" wink

Ha-ha - got it in one. My greyhound will not be impressed. Sully is going to have a sleep over with my Nephew (5) and Niece (3) this weekend - they are going to be really chuffed.


{EDIT} - and Furries - that's just grim and an unexpected twist (comedy value appreciated though).

The cool thing is that he'll actually be the same scale to them as he is in the film hehe

The Mondeo is a second garden shed and houses 3 scooters, a child's bike, wellies, buckets, spades and the pushchair.

The Golf still has a kitchen nylon chopping board that I used to clear snow very effectively when we had that snow - wife didn't seem to want it back....

This reminds me of a birthday of mine..

A few years ago my Nan told me she had got me a large present for my 24th birthday, and it was too big/awkward to send so I would have to go and collect it. She instructed me that it wouldn't fit in my 'tiny sportscar' (a 968 Porker)..so I hired a Peugeot 406 Estate and headed from Surrey up to Teeside on a Friday evening after work...anyway, I was really curious about what the present could be and also slightly worried that my relatively impoverished Grandparents hadn't spent a lot of money they couldn't afford..

..upon arrival I was on the lookout for this 'gargantuan' gift constantly, and sat through about 4 cups of tea before my Nan scuttled off upstairs. She reappeared with a life size (at least) stuffed Old English Sheepdog (which had been my first and favourite family pet)!..to say I was lost for words is an understatement!..as a grown adult male what do you say to that?!..I think I just about played it right, and to my knowledge this is the only example of senility my (now 87 year) old Gran has ever exhibited..luckily since then it has been aftershave and cash..

..and the 'dog' would have gone in my car..and when I got home it went straight round the Gfs, who seemed to be more the intended audience for such.useless objects!!

Don't have a picture of it unfortunately, but a fair few years ago now I wheeled a mahoosive CRT (that'll give you an idea of how long ago) television inside its even more massive cardboard packaging on a trolley out of a discount warehouse up to the back of the teeny tiny Saxo VTS I had at the time.

A chap getting into his car one or two bays along stopped and came over saying 'I'm dying to see how you are going to get that in there'.

Front doors open, back seat folded down, tailgate up - the box just slipped through the opening and far enough forward to clear the window with the tailgate down.

Parcel shelf slipped into the gap at one side, an impressed nod of head from bloke later job was a good 'un.

Also once managed to get a fully assembled wardrobe into the back of a Mk1 SEAT Toledo....

I once went through customs in Dover with a boot full of water pistols and paint-ball guns.

It raised an eyebrow but they let us through. Might've helped that the car was decorated like a Batmobile.
