Ere, gorra delete the post yer quoted. It's bin taken oft as the 'steaks' word issa link to spam. He ain't paid to advertise on me fred. And miller and carter. Eye has bin there. Terrybull meal. Slugs crawling up the walls. Brings a new meaning...

Tis a merc model unsure.

Top ones martra or somit grp fings. Haha I see what you've done now 🤣 🤣

Im the one taking the pic :p I had my pink frock on too..

Need to change the wurd 'steaks' anorl assits a clicky link to their menu.

I did see it on the map but decided to go here..........

Isn't that the same with all markets, antique fairs, auction rooms, souqs and retails pop-ups ...

I thought spam was pork ?

Have got to ask, for what?

Morning All. :D A brilliantly Sunny day ATM. :) Have a great day. :D

Morning All. :D I have damaged my knee and I am limping today. I have to go up to the old gal's house with my wife to try and access some cupboard over the bed in the old gal's bedroom. It means moving the bed. :( Herself has had a few tearful...

I had a Traction when I was 17, bought it cheap with a broken driveshaft, it was a 6 cylinder with big open flywheel and driveshafts with a u/j each end to the front wheels, couldn't afford the petrol so I had to sell it

Obvs! I tried that and it didn't work. I have a big enough collection of watches to know not to bust one. :rolleyes: And also getting the balance wheel working still isn't an indication of the WHOLE drive train working. I've been caught that way...

Mornin Dull an cool Snail's been snailing around me livin room again Caught two of them, don't know how they're gettin in 🤔 Still no rain, the lawns need water badly :( Stay holy all :)

Nope. I spotted it onna shelf inna shop an sneaked a pic.

You should NEVER wind a watch that is for sale, a small rotational shake is sufficient to make the drive train active to see/hear if it is working ...

Don you think, that if you don't set it- you won't wake up? Leave LZ open on your phone, so wifey can report with relief, or not.

At our ages I think it might be limited to bouncing up and down and seeing how springy they are!!

Ok now you keep that to yourself. :eek:

Shame she missed the chance of a real 70s experience!! Mine is coming with me tomoz, I'll report back on any back-seat antics!! 🤣 🤣

The Mrs didnt want to go so I went with my mate. :)

Well, my noo, Art Deco-ish slide-to-close alarm clock tells me it is time to go to bed, so I'll set it and see if it lasts till tomoz morning! I did test the alarm on the rear terrace of a café when we were there. It did ring satisfactorily. Had...

We used to go on car tours with a classis car bunch, and one guy had a Traction with the correct yellow wheels, they looked OK although a bit odd, I don't think the ones in the pic were anything like original, and they are simply too bright. I'll...

And did you and the missus try the back seat??? Eh??? Eh??? Nudge nudge???? VERY practical!!!! 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 I loved the way the Mini Marcos used the Mk1 Cortina rear lights!!:):):) The bigger propah Marcos was quite a beast, I'd have loved one...

Lovely but the wheel colour choice is nasty.

Yes correct on both.... The Mini Marcos was a one registered owner & the Cortina was a factory v6 from South Africa, I got to sit in it..the seats were so comfy nice n soft compared to our hard leather seats nowadays.

When I was a young lad, a bloke a few doors away from us had one of those, in gold colour (might not have been original colour). He loved that car but everyone else including his family hated it and it was a bit of an eyesore on the street. It...

The yellow one, a Mini Marcos? My pa used to drink with Jem Marsh in Bradford on Avon while waiting to pick us up from school, after "prep". The Brown interior, a Cortina Mk 3?? I had two when I was a rep, one auto one manual. Some really...

So, a Citroen Traction Avant, so called because Traction Avant means front wheel drive which was very rare at the time, commonly shortened to Traction. The yellow wheels look a bit odd, but the originals did have them. Not sure if exactly like...
