On a bad day
Adda labradorian aboat twenny yers back wot et three boxes uv Thorntons posh choclits oavernaight wiv no ill effects. Mid yew, that wuz the wun what survived half a drum of slug pellets anorl. Miracle dug!They shouldn't give dogs choccies, it is very bad for them.
Ladies in the works cafeteria used to say "what you having for lunch Jimmy?" LOLYankee Doodle Dandie?
Neebs' missus has since popped over with a plant to say thank you for last night's entertainment. Totally not necessary, they did bring choccies and treats for the dogs when they came anyway. Lovely peeps!
How do peeps fell about Ant Anstead? I find I am a bit "Marmite" about him.
Been watching the "Born mechanic" thing, a bit because the first car he did was a Dolly Sprint nearly exactly the same as mine, although mine was the same colour it didn't even have the MOD gearbox, too early.
But just watched him lose money on a fairly lovely Jag XJS.
Where is Mike Brewer when you need him?!
Morning All.
Still here, with you lovely lot.
A bit of a lie in today.
Have a super Remembrance Sunday.
When a job's done, its DONE!Drizzle rain here, ive got about 40 odd slates to finish on the garage I really should go an get wet & finish it.
Went to a games night at the bowling club good laugh & had a few drams n beers.
Games as in hide the sausage ect not twister n hide n seek.
No idea where the joke is in all that!Bet its pampas grass Swwwwinnnngggggg
No idea where the joke is in all that!
Maybe someone will eggsplain?
In the "Swinging" 60's an indicator that the residents of a house were into the "swinging" lifestyle was the planting of a Pampas Grass in the front garden. Much like bored Army wives and their packet of OMO in the front window.No idea where the joke is in all that!

Edd China did a degree in engineering product design, then went off making bonkers things like the motorised sofa, office, supermarket trolley etc, his book, Grease Junkie, is a real good read and explains why he left WD. I liked him because he was a real human being and not a bad mechanic, although possibly not as good a fabricator as the other two.Pretty sure he aint a mechanic but did restore cars as a business, no keen on him tbh I likes Guy Martin.

Ant Anstead has a harder edge to him, used to be a copper, keeps getting married and divorced (!) but has a long association with building cars starting when he was 16 which must account for why he fabricates well. No professional qualifications as a mech. Done loads of stuff on TV. which might account for why I am not so keen on him. It was only on reading up on him that I realised how much TV he has done.
"Elvis" Priestley I like, he really knows his stuff and does more machining than any of the others which makes me think he must have some sort of training in it. I like him because he is less up himself than some!
Guy Martin is a real one off, and comes from my part of the country, so his bluntness and semi-silliness reminds me of me! I like him too.
Well that is hilarious cos when I met W she had a pampas grass in front of her place.In the "Swinging" 60's an indicator that the residents of a house were into the "swinging" lifestyle was the planting of a Pampas Grass in the front garden.
