'wrencher,

FWIW, your post gave me a good laugh!

Christer

Adrian, I need some of your pills.

BTW and FWIW for those who have met me in person (Dave, Riccardo and Piers) I am actually a really nice guy. They'll tell you................................................guys?

We all also like to talk options. Give us a try. Do you have a factory LSD?

Hey Trader220 -

Was totaly meant in humor - please ask as many questions as you want - and we will attempt to answer.

Anyone notice that we didn't reply................?

But - since he did let me blast around in his orange car, I can't really disagree. Now, if he'd just sell me his exhaust for 50p, he'd be a REALLY really nice guy.

Christer

I must say for the record that before he drove my car Dave said (or words to the effect of) 'i only have 3rd party insurance so don't worry, I won't push it'. Now the truth comes out.....sorry but the exhaust is not for sale.

DaveK

Now you're mis-quoting me Mr. Nice-Guy. What I actually said was..... that since I wasn't used to the car, Piers should take it a bit easier in front. When he shot off, it would have been rude not to follow!

And - I said to Riccardo at the time, your exhaust just kind of makes you...... each time you accelerate you have to let the revs get up just for that lovely howl. The good news is - didn't hit your rev limiter.

Christer

i never have either actually. I guess I am just too good a driver?

DaveK

Or you drive like a big girls blouse.

I must confess I've hit mine..... well, quite a few times which I know is not a good thing. Did you know that in 4th you hit it at 140mph? Girlfriend at the time was NOT impressed.

Joey,
'Cos if you scroll back up, Christer said that if you meet him (like I have) he's a really nice guy.

Christer

Joey

You will notice that Dave does not necessarily agree with this statement. But I am really. My mum told me.

DaveK

My mum told me : size doesn't matter.

Always wondered why she stressed that so much..........

And.... if you're caught short in the birth control department clingfilm is not a substitute apparently (I really hope she was joking about this). And no, that's not why I exist.

Very down to earth my mum.

Christer,

Well, if your mum says so, then it must be true.

DaveK,

Your mum sounds like a very interesting woman, indeed.

Uh, no comment from this side of the pond.

"Drive like a big girls blouse"? English slang at its best. You guys are going to have to explain this one to me.

Christer

if we throw Political Correctness out of the window, 'driving like a big girls blouse' can be translated as:

1. Driving like a poof. (Poof=homosexual) This one is a great British phrase which clearly shows that the consensus is that homosexuals drive much slower than the 'pink in the corner pocket' variety. That is to say the ones that don't 'pot the brown'. That reminds me. Do you have snooker in the US?

2. Driving like a woman. This one surely needs no explanation?

On the subject of language, Cockney rhyming slang is a great British institution. For example, 'look at the hampsteads on that bowler' means 'look at the teeth on that cat'. Or 'I slapped the old trouble cos she was having it away with my old china'. I will leave it there.

On that note, I am off for a ruby.

BTW, Dave was insulting me if the above didn't make sense. I would say he wouldn't like me when I am angry, but then he doesn't like me anyway.

Have fun everyone and drive safe. Riccardo, see you at JZM tomorrow say at 9.30am or so?
