At least one of the directors at my work is a CG, there was a Ferrari 812 Comp parked outside yesterday when I was leaving. Another one has a Maybach S600.

Spotting the cars is cool but parking £600k car at work when the average salary is just bumping £30k seems gauche

He's a handsome chap Dave. Don't know how you managed to get a pic of him with Geoff Capes though.

Put some orange juice in it Jobbo, everyone knows you can drink booze at breakfast if there's fruit juice in it.

I made bread last night. I’m officially as civilised as neolithic man.

I mentioned it before, but seeing well dressed middle aged men chugging bucky on the train on a saturday afternoon was a bit of a culture shock to this soft east coaster when I first moved through .

3.8l is an absurdly large engine in a small car .

What's the deal with those V6s, stroker kit?

I used to be fiend for buckfast tbh.

I used to neck a bottle of it before I went out.

A man after my own heart, my favoured tipple was the most £5 bottle of white or red depending on my mood.

Can confirm that Foundation, Silo and Severance are all excellent.

They were mostly Americans

Aye, it's a new car. The 4.0 Coxster was just a range expansion.

They shout and swear in that Italian way, but they don't seem to stew and threaten violence in the same way as you get here

People in the UK seem predisposed to find the most stressful way to do anything tbh.

Like, the roads in a lot of Europe are chaotic but most seem to shrug it off. People here treat the commute like going to war.

Not really, you can still buy the 4 cyl one. The 6 cyl is a new model. It would be similar if they did a C63+ or whatever with the V8.

I can't see any situation where a company downsizes and then back tracks under current legislation.

It's not like they moved to phev for the performance benefits.

That is the aforementioned piles cushion.

I'm too much of a tart to put something that ugly on my bike.

I tell you, the tension between suffering for fashion and getting old and soft is real

I don't think I've been in a bike shop in 20 years tbh. There used to be a good indy in Penicuik that I went to but they shut.

Oh, I didn't know Tiso has bike shops. That's a good shout Mik, I always liked wandering round their Rose St shop when going out to shops was still a thing I did.

That looks like a good buy Mito, I was just thinking the other day that you don't see many of those XJs around. Which is a shame.

Dave's not crying. He's been chopping onions for his lasagne... for one.
