This is a breakdown of the work required (by a different mechanic mate of a mate, so the price is different due to his lower hourly rate)
I’m still not willing to sink £1.8k into it!

Re: Randomness
There’s a thread on Seloc where a guy has applied to renew his HGV licence and filled out the alcohol intake question to say he has 12 pints a week. They’ve refused his application based on that but the DVLA has also taken his car and motorbike licences off him too! Doesn’t sound right. Can they do ...

Re: 2023 review / 2024 plans
Work: No change here in 2023. It pays ok, I’m treated well and I like the people I work with. Still toying with going back contracting but I’ve become a bit lazy this last 12 months, if I’m honest. There’ll be a few negative changes this year at my current place, hopefully that’ll give me the requir...

Re: Car Plans 2024
MOT on Monday then I’ll make a decision as to whether the A5 goes. It’s been a great car for seven years and trouble free but it’s on 130k now and a few things are beginning to fail. I’ve considered: F Pace: reliability puts me off Tesla Model 3: Can’t charge at home so daft idea. R8: daft idea. I’l...

Saw another yesterday, they really do look very correct. If I had the space/cash I’d have V6 manuel immediately.

It’s already been mentioned on this thread but we’ve just finished the second series of Slow Horses. Best thing I’ve seen in ages!

Re: HC you miserable bunch
Yep, Merry Christmas to you all.
I reckon I visit four websites a day. The others are Wordle, Quordle and Cardle, so you all must mean at least something to me, YFCs. Hope you all have a lovely Christmas.

There was a strange red tinge over Sheffield as I was driving up the M1 yesterday afternoon. Quite eerie, like I had tinted glasses on.

Possibly controversial but Aldi’s Ballycastle mince pies are really fucking good. They have a fake Baileys type filling in them.

Re: GTA 6
I've not owned a console for 10+ years and I'm excited about this :lol: games like GTA6 are major cultural entertainment events, bigger than any Hollywood blockbuster or chart-topping album. I have a pretty standard Xbox One and have used it exclusively for GTA V 😂 I’ll no doubt buy the latest cons...
