Splashy?

ION: It was dry here oop norf a little while ago, but now it is persisting down with what could be rain.
I look upon it as a blessing from heaven.
God's car wash and garden watering combined service. Free of charge.

Apart from the fact, that carpark is now demolished... hehe

Shame, was only £10 to park all saturday, whilst all the other carparks in Mayfair are around £35. frown

Range Rovers and their gas guzzling, leather clad, ilk came to mind this morning when I was pondering the next Extinction Rebellion Rally in London. I feel I should go and show my support for them but don't know where to leave the Aston. I wondered about leaving it in Audley Square Car Park behind The Dorchester and getting a cab. Does anyone have any experience of this sort of thing? It's a real dilemma.
Sling it in the Members' Car Park behind the St.Trivians club old boy, there should be plenty of room this time of day.

I'll meet you in the Penknife & Prostitute at around half eleven. 'Owld Cobblers' £12.95 / half, 'Croydon Kate' £29.95 /pint.

Keep the mondeo but fit a supercharger and paint it orange. That way everyone is happy. wobble
If painting the supercharger orange makes it go even faster I might do the same to the old Lucas dynamo in my fifty year old Cooper S, wouldn't hurt would it...? hehe

It's complete and utter carnage here!!! All infeed racks being moved, all work being moved and mixed up, areas being moved around, I'm sure it'll all be fine!!!! rofl
Well that's just plain ridickerless, Bobbers! rolleyes

The only sensible thing they should be doing is rounding up all of the other 98 Bobberoo clones and putting them to work on as many axes as possible, and get rid of all the hopeless numpties that are buggering up the system by their repetitive GIGO methodology.
By so doing, they would maximise the output potential from it's current baseline to at least 127% ( or more with extra tea breaks.)

As long as they hide all of the shiny splashy stabby things.

It's blatantly obvious to me, so why can't they see it?
rofl Genuinely made me laugh, splashy would still work!!!!

Valet park at the Dorchester. Nice enough car gets parked out front and then you only have to “pay” a tip not an actual parking charge. If they park it underground it costs more but that would never happen to any of us would it wink

I have just seen the trailer for Top Gun 2 and in my new role as marketing director I thought I should direct some marketing.
The revival of Top Gun is a great opportunity for us.
We could make our own TTop Gun.

If glenrobbo could get Lizzie up to speed along the Trivton bypass and Bomma could ride the ‘blade alongside (ideally with a few patches on his leather jacket) then we would have a great shot for our own trailer.

Bobbers can use his Lego to build the sets, after all they do need to be realistic.

If we use a soft focus the barchetta could pass for a speedster and it would give Peri a chance to put on his long blond wig.

A few quotes:
“I feel the need, the need for tea*”
*note all our tea products are tea free.

“Son, your tassels are writing cheques your body can’t cash”

“Take me to Trivton or lose me forever”

Open to other ideas but now that I am in the movie business I reserve the right to be a diva and flounce without warning. wink

Scrump, I like the cut of your jib young feller, you seem ideally suited to the rôle, great to see you are taking it seriously.

Just one thing: Flouncing on here is exclusively Peri's prerogative, so if you wish to flounce, he will do it on your behalf. Unless he's away on a "thing", in which case feel free to flounce away.
You can settle the account with him on his return, and his Flouncing charges are quite reasonable.
Unlike the rather extortionate rate for "Noms!"

Oh bugger! frown

Well,I had a fab 3 hours at the "Festival of the unexceptional",a concours for mundane,dull motors.
The classic car car park was also full of good,if a bit dull cars and 2 Barchettas,both silver.

Most pics on camera,have a couple off the phone.


A rare and not at all dull Innocenti.

Very early Fiesta Ghia ,on a R reg.
I think P is the earliest Fiesta reg there was.


Gratuitous orange FIAT.

Weather was nothing like the forecast,of lightning n stuff,stayed dry and warm all morning.

If you fully back it up (I’m talking phone here) it’s dead easy to graft the backed up stuff onto the new one. If you don’t lots of work indeed.

Yasmina from the new Aladdin is a hottie. Took one of the kids to the cinema today.

One of my old girlfreinds had a Fiesta Ghia like that. Ended up going out with her sister, huge pair of honkers she had.

I lost touch with her when I went to Cyprus. Still get a Christmas card from her dad though, hard old Glaswegian bugger he is.

Funny old world.

Not 100% on name,Innocenti built locally made Austins but with some different bodies.
This one had a Sprite 40 years sticker,so the consensus was it's a better looking Sprite type.
They also made Minis and 1100 type cars,one called the Primula.
