We have a Shiba Inu.

Feel free to flame me for the plate being a plural when we only have one dog

I thought you already had a Cooper S convertible 😂 We do, that's the wife's car ! Loads more power, but loads more scuttle shake too.

Tim - I bought an iPhone (just an "iPhone", before they had any model suffix) from you a while back. I know for a fact it's in the drawer in the hallway right now

I think ours need doing too. Good heads up to get it done sooner, Fingers crossed for you 8-) This Wednesday will be 12 weeks since I did the online application. Some people seem to get them through faster but 12 weeks from now is the end of October so I'd say that if you 're planning on travelling...

We went to MiL's house for lunch yesterday and took the Clubman as it's not been out for a while. C578C32C-417F-4AE9-A5BB-4E4B437009BC.jpeg I like it and keep thinking the extra power of a Cooper S would be nice but OTOH, if you're just sitting on the motorway is 70mph in a Cooper S going to be fast...

He said that the handbrake is called a parking brake for a reason, it should never be used unless parking. Did you specifically ask him how to do a hill start without using the handbrake ? That would answer the question. We're all total DRIVING GODS here so obviously do it by feathering the clutch ...

There's sadly been a few high-profile cases recently of cyclists jumping red lights, colliding with a pedestrian and the pedestrian dying. Do that in a car and you can get 14 years for dangerous driving. The same law doesn't apply to cyclists and the archaic "wanton or furious" offence* th...

I changed the screen on my iPhone 7 last year. Not tooooo difficult but I tore the cable to the earpiece / front camera. And then when replacing that I managed to bugger up the home button. So I gave up and bought a new s/h replacement phone. The eBay screen worked but the colour & contrast was ...

I physically flinched when I swiped onto the interior pic. The outside looks great.

Glory hole.

… literally means “lonely mouth” or “longing to have or put something in one's mouth.”

Yeah. I’m not googling that any further !
