Tell us Something Really Trivial about your Life (VOL 30)

[Bomma220]

Could well be Grandbomma's old one, I know she had a few problems with it before it was sold on.

I'll be bloody glad when I feel something like normal again. I'm spending about eighty quid a day on Rothmans

[Bomma220]

Where's Jim AK disappeared to anyhow? Has he buggered off somewhere in that Bentley thing?

[Bobberoo99]

That is properly funny Dicky!!!

I asked the same question a while ago Bomma, we seem to have lost a few of the regulars, JimAK, Dibble, Timmy45, Chunkymonkey makes the occasional appearance now, but where are they all???

No doubt Pushfit could shed some light on the barn business. I believe he has a fairly large one.

If they're all together The Bell & Leper I'd imagine

As I sit here waiting for tea to cook I keep wanting to stroke the bunny in my lap, that's not a euphemism it's unfortunately Mrs Bobbers choice of sock for the day!!!

Just how I managed to get my foot into my lap to take that picture is, well, quite frankly, painful!!!

She certainly seems to be appearing a fair bit over there. I wonder if there was some sort of sponsorship deal going on?

Battert said Bobbers could borrow it for a week or two........3 years ago !

I'll raise a motion at the next AGM to discuss sanctions for lack of return.......

Thank Heaven they are all well!

Are you holding them captive in your secret nonsequitur lair?
Will you be sending ransom notes for their release?

We should check the bottom of the well.

So here's a question for you chaps, I've got Goodyear Efficientgrips fitted on the Focus and they're good in all conditions, quieter than the Pirrelli's which were on there and better performing, but what tyres do you chaps use on your various cars and which do you find perform best in all conditions?

OK Bobbers, here goes:

I have Dunlop Sport BluResponse on the TVR S1.

I have Toyo Proxes on the front of the S3c and Kumho's on the rear, as fitted by the previous custodian. These have been OK, but are lower profile than standard, which compromises ground clearance somewhat. These will be replaced soon with the /60 profile Dunlop Blue rinses to reduce the exhaust/speedbump interaction occurrences.

The C-Max currently has a mish-mash of DogEar ditchfinders that were on it when I bought it.
I shall probably replace them with Conti's or whatever, as and when they need replacing.
Probably when they reach their 7th birthday, as the likelihood of wearing them out before then is slim as I tend not to use it much for trackdays.

I'm very happy with the all-round performance of the Dunlops on road & track and in all weathers. They are great value and I await my sponsorship cheque from Dunlop in the post.

Tyre choice is always a compromise ( even top F1 teams get it wrong ) but my advice would be to never ever drive around on tyres older than 7 years, unless you are Charles Bronson.

Pirelli cinturato on the Jag in summer, cant remember what the winters are, Avon zzr7 on the wedge and just put a set of bridgestone a005 all season tyres on the mrs's zafira.

The Avons went on the TVR when I realised that the tyres were 15 years old!! They also suddenly went off a cliff with regards to grip, suddenly had no grip at all

Wellington ?
Welling ?
Wellingborough ?

Well I never did !
