Mickey 7

The film adaptation is in the queue but I thought I'd give the book a go. It took a while to get into it but the last half flew past. Like most good SciFi, it's a philosophy book disguised with spaceships and technology. There's a follow up called Antimatter Blues that is now in the book ...

I believe that the correct terminology is "Collar stays".

Also, the correct terminology for colleagues is "henchmen".

Re: Your fleet running reports


I often get asked if my car is a 530d, even when I’m at a petrol pump holding a green nozzle.

I find it easier to nod and smile, usually followed by “I bet that shifts” or similar.


No-one talks to me at the fuel pumps. I prefer it this way and remain content in knowing that I have more turbots ...

They're impressive but I still think that if you're looking for a 4 seat Porker, you're looking at the wrong company.


Plenty of space in a Cayenne. And I would definitely spec rear seats in a 992. Not because I want to take passengers, it just feels bizarre not to have them.

Re: Taycan test drive report



I don’t think the facelift Taycan front end is nearly as attractive as the original. It looks like a GTAified version with the distinguishing features removed.


Both the Macan and Taycan have been restyled to look like they have just emerged from the cinema into bright sunlight.

Re: Midlands curry

Good food, great company and we managed to reference some forum in jokes from 20 years ago.

And yes, more frequently meeting is a good idea, even if we can't work out how to split a bill without accidentally giving a £6,000 tip.

He also appears in a cameo in the film Apollo 13. He was told that he would be greeting the crew after they ...

Power Maxed Racing fire

These are an independent team in the BTCC but run TCR cars and have a manufacturing and warehousing facility.

Or they did.
