Not quite sending a car sideways or having a stand-off with Raoul Moat, but after having to do garden centre and House of Frasier money wielding on Saturday, I finished the weekend by getting lost driving through Leeds, then watching the football in the pub last night and getting and ear bashing for rolling home late and slightly drunk.

sunday afternoon - washed cars, and my neighbours joined in and did theirs.
Forgive me Ewan, but that sounds a little, well...gay. Unless the neighbours were female, svelte, and wearing small bikinis. But that counts you out of the Pure Man thread, I'm guessing, so you're in trouble either way.

Sorry.

Beer and TG, that counts though.
A lot of male bonding does have an underlying current of homosexuality... I've been told
Male bonding on motorbikes on great country roads? fine.
On an airfield while throwing cars sideways? Fine.
On a battlefield? Fine.
While saving hostages from a deranged band of terrorists? Fine.

While playing with water and lots of soap suds? Not fine.
Glad head-to-toe in leather, in the middle of the country side...come on it's a little homoerotic? But a hell of a lot of fun none the less!
Leather?

Too hot for leather. Was wearing an armoured mesh vest thing.

Oh, wait...damn.

It's actually worked out really well, all the blokes go out and wash their cars and talk about well, cars and manly stuff. Plus there's the satisfaction of doing the job properly with the right equipment and standing back afterwards and admiring your handiwork.

It sounds a little bit like the sort of glow women get fromn cooking together/gossipping over a cup of coffee. Not quite what I meant.

I think you need to up your game, chap.

Nicely smashed drunk with a few good friends in the local Saturday, then hot wings from Nando's yum with a couple of Superbock in front of the telly.

1hr dog walk Sunday morning early (beautiful morning), then Mrs Masitff was off to watch the latest crap vampire film thingy, so a 100 bird shoot at Pirbright with mate, then met up with the girls again for pub Sunday Roast. Home to chill for a couple of hours whilst watching the Grand Prix on SKY+, flicking through the boring bits (most of it), quick empty of the hound again and back to the local to watch the footy. Won a fiver off the mate, and the pub sweepstake.

All in all, a pretty good weekend.yes

I thought this thread was going to be about MAN trucks, surely a real man's weekend pursuit?!

Friday - bimble into Glasgow to watch Shrek 4 in 3D at the Imax with wife and stepfather in law.
Sat - hoon up alongside Gareloch, around Loch Fyne, over the Rest and Be Thankful, down the side of Loch Long and past Loch Eck, hood down the whole time despite impending rain for lunch with father in law and his girlfriend's kids.
Sun - Grand Prix, icecream with cousin, made scorchio curry for us, watched football, drank copious amounts of football, taught cousin how to play Guitar Hero until 4 am.

Nearly a man's weekend. Off sailing this weekend and drinking displacement value of boat in beer. That'll be a bit more manly.

Saturday
Silverstone to watch the qualifying, then back to steam clean the offroader, then strip fuel tank out to fix fuel sender.

Sunday: Silverstone to watch the grand prix, came back, lay on bed, watch world cup whilst having blow job. Following world cup, lay in bath reading PPC.

In short, and in summary, I think im level pegging flashman for once
Winning the thread so far, I have to say. That's some strong work.
