Being as I am staying in during all this foul weather, could someone invent a Wedge Game for us to play.

My thoughts were a board game with model cars on it similar to the old Formula 1 game from the '60s. Throw a dice and advance x number of squares. Certain squares have hazard cards to be picked up - gearbox broken, throttle cable gone - miss y goes. Also things like pop-up healights malfunction - go for pit stop, MOT fail miss three goes etc.. Advance cards also - Put in high octane fuel, advance three squares! Crash due to slippery road, go back five spaces. And so much more I have in mind re brakes, tyres, suspension etc.. Also steering wheel with fuel guages and so on.

Blimey, now I've found something to do I'd better patent it and copyright it! Yes Yes! My copyright 2005! Sits down to add more ideas and refine concept.

Welcome to all the new Wedgers! See you at BBWF!

MOT fail? Sorry, mine's never failed..

The lights have failed to pop up on a few occasions though... and how about 'Driver's seat frame snaps, pain in the ar53'. Or 'Fuel pipe splits, throw away £50'...

We could base the course on the first BBWF runout.

Look, it's not funny if you have to explain it. I meant: 'arrive at wedge meeting in a Chim and you get SENT TO Coventry', i.e. nobody speaks to you.

You suvverners are hard work sometimes...

Holy sh!t, for my 10,000th post you'd think I could have done better...:
