Less likely to get stuck in the mud!!

Yeah. Just finished polishing my car. Will all be stood like sardines in the big tent!!

Have it for supper!!

Providing he opens the door when you get there!! But yeah, if waiting for this disc was damaging my business, I would be banging on his door tomorrow

Yeah! Great to see everybody again and to meet some new people :biggrin:

Sounds like she's gone to a good home but still sad :sad:

It's probably dangling from a taxi drivers rear view mirror by now

Stupid predictive text on iPads!!

Aaw cute!! Soon be zipping round the house

Yeah. You don't want the neighbours complaining to the planning dept and delaying your build. What are the vents for- bathroom, boiler? Daft little things like this can escalate and cause bad blood before you start, it's not worth it

Hells granny!!

Rapidly heading towards the Saga lifestyle!!

It's not really that I mind kids having a prom night. But it was always supposed to be represent leaving school, becoming an adult, and trundling off into the big wide world. Not leaving junior school. They should have had a day out at flamingo land or gone to macdonalds or summat, instead of inflicting themselves on normal people. Compare this lot to the pics that 300zx666 put up of Ian jr the other day off to his 'proper' prom, looking great

Ta! Would have said something myself but for some reason I can't start threads from my iPad and have to crank up my steam powered net book which I've now forgotten how to use :-) couldn't be bothered going through all that again

It's my birthday today, so me and my friend toddled off to Frankie and Benny's for a chilled out evening. All was going well until a group of around 30 children of around eleven years of age suddenly descended on the place and took up an entire wall of tables. There were adults with them, in fact one old bloke was videoing them, while the children were shouting, screaming and bouncing on the chairs. Everybody in the place that wasn't part of this troop ended up staring mortified at them as you couldn't speak to each other over the racket. They then began popping all the balloons in the room, whether they were on their tables, or those of others who were eating there, it made no difference to them. The girl who tried to get at the balloons on my table was given short thrift and sent away as in a piqué of attempting to keep some me lance of this being my birthday meal I wanted to keep the balloons attached to the table. Chatting to one of the waitresses, it turned out this assault on the senses was a prom night outing. They had turned up half an hour early and there tables was not completely ready. The adults with the group turned out to be the teachers. This rabble of unruly brats spoilt what would have been a nice evening for us, and did nothing for demonstrating how to keep control of children on an outing. It appeared that the teachers did nothing whatsoever apart from watch the mayhem unfold. Call me old fashioned, but since when did eleven year olds have a prom night? Or however old these little rat bags were on leaving junior school. When I was a kid we had a school disco, at least the only adults to be inconvenienced were the teachers and the parents, unlike this rabble of rungs who ruined the nights of a good few paying customers tonight. If we hadn't already ordered and been sat waiting for our main we would have left minutes after it became obvious that the teachers had no interest in trying to keep any sense of control over the group.

Heh. That car looks like its really enjoying watching somebody get a pasting:biggrin:

That looks great, a real quality job!! Think I prefer it with the badge too. It just adds a little something

Yup. Wish I hadn't bought the mx5 now :sad:

Dunno. I found my mr2 much more forgiving and predictable than either of my zeds. Certainly wouldn't throw my present zed around with the same confidence I had with the Toyota. Mind you, maybe the engine position and the 100 fewer horsepower might have summat to do with it :biggrin:

Thanks but I've got 99 spec clocks so they are staying even if they don't work !!! :-)

Hmm. Now I'm all indecisive again! Will have to get it sorted but def don't want to make things worse. Would normally just charge off to Zedworld but things are a bit awkward at the mo. does look a bit fiddly. Can see it getting shoved back together with duct tape n blu tack!!

After my speedo failed 4 times on one trip I am now having to usemy sat nav as a back up. My other half is planning to have a spirited attempt at fixing it!! Any hints or tips on how to get to the speedo circuit board would be appreciated! Is it a difficult thing to get to and put back together? I would rather not have a speedo then an annoying squeak or creak cos we couldn't get it back properly.
