S&M, I hate to break the bad news to you, but it looks like somebody has pinched your coat from the WI Hall cloakroom:

Is this WHSmith with the comics stuck in some form of time warp?
Ahh yes, the Trivhampton Annual ball, 2005 if I remember correctly!!!

It's that time of year.

The Trivhampton Annual Ball leads inevitably to the Trivhampton Annual Bail.

The prospect of bail being set above the amount accrued over the preceding twelve months in the coffee jar marked 'Sugar' in the main pantry is too awful to contemplate. Do any of the judiciary owe us any favours?

Judge Piccalilly has been storing unlicensed firearms in the hangar for a good while now, I bypassed his electric meter for him too after it was replaced with one of those pay as you go things.

He should be a reasonably soft touch, if that's any help?

Let's just gloss over that *cough* fact shall we Bom, we don't want that Kevin Turvey fella from The Trivington Times doing his investigative journalistic type stuff around the hangar. He's on the verge of being syndicated, so that means he could get to the broad sheets.....yes....i do mean the BIG ONE, the Trivton Magna Advertiser and we all know that means any *issues* will reach the ears of that Chief Constabubble fella and he's a git for poking his nose where it isnt wanted.

We may have to move those firearms out of the hangar to make room for more toilet rolls.

WOAH! Hang on a minute, Peri!
What's the matter? I thought it was just a fuel leak after you'd filled Minty's petrol tank the first time after purchase. ?

It sounded to me like a high level leak, possibly the filler neck joining hose or a loose clamp or something?

What has changed since then? Tell us more.
We need more info to be of any help to you.

Au contraire. (I looked up "on the contrary" in Italian but it came out as "anzi" which, if you re-translate comes out as "other.")

You succeed in here. With us.

Yes, okay, the bar is set low, but you succeed.

Succeed like a parrot with no teeth.

There are better ways to build a chap's self esteem, you know.

Like tell him how much we a appreciate his remarkable photographic records of his long distance continental forays, always successful despite roaming solo, unescorted by a back-up team of specialists and support vehicles like most of the dilettante road trippers you see in online blogs and suchlike.

A remarkable independent self-reliant proponent of "Fun with FIATs" and rare Italian motors in their declining years...

I mean, fair play, the guy's a veritable gem of a bloke, to be treasured and valued as a worthwhile PH contributor.

Not like some of those other twunts on NP&E.

And a connoisseur of pasta dishes, and curator of the valuable "Nom!"


Bugger! That's gonna cost me. frown

You can't tell a book by its' cover, S&M, it's what's inside that counts:

Pray show or tell us, which era of automobiles does it encompass?
And which nationalities?
