I saw them on Later a few weeks ago and yeah, I rather liked it. I suspect that was the same show that Skindred were on because I wouldn't typically watch Later these days (he seems too anti-metal).

That's exactly the reason I watched the show.

Autotune is doing some extremely heavy lifting there!

I recognise you, Phil, Yorkshire Peach and Anne Russell.

I'm back in Chesterfield. It's fucking horrific.

I've heard that about Chesterfield.

Big hugs.

I nearly bought a 900 with a burgandy velour interior when I was much, much younger. I went for a Mk2 Astra Tiffany instead. That was probably a mistake.

My 2023 gaming is - I've just started Red Dead Redemption 2 (on PS4) :lol: I only seem to play games at Christmas time. I'm somewhat behind the times. I haven't played RDR or RDR2 but I always assume it's like GTA crossed with this: https://youtu.be/ljPFZrRD3J8?si=MLG3Fu26U8RyX0ra Ex used to say I ...

I have no intention of touching your nuts!

insured Jimmy on my existing Jimny policy Just as well he's not an 8ft tall elf, providing stand-in duties for Mr Claus, or you'd potentially have to jemmy Jimmy into the Jimny to get down a chimney. This is most concerning as I've got a fire going and the thought of burning is disconcerting. :shock:

As well as Ren, I've been really enjoying The Last Dinner Party.

I may also go for Boring Car Trivia 4, Richard Porter's new book which he spruiks on the excellent Smith n Sniff podcast.

If you liked the first 3, you'll like this one.

Yeah. I read the news reports when they mentioned EV and didnt delve into it again until corrected.

I imagine you can buy keys to open most of them online too. Not sure I’d bother fitting them if I didn’t already have them but I’d leave them on to make sure my insurers don’t refuse cover if my wheels were nicked. Jobbo has the nuts of correctness. :o The Jag solved this problem by breaking studs ...

I thought the Luton one had been but I'm in orthopedic shoes on that.

I wonder how the car park fires in Luton and now Bristol will impact premiums, especially on electric cars.

Sorry Dan, with it being winter my tastes are distinctly Mercedes shaped at the moment :mrgreen: Found this lovely one the other day, but need to eBay the Citroen first (and stop a pesky warning light coming on) https://www.carandclassic.com/l/C1666213 The wear on the steering wheel seems to indica...

I'm still surprised that I let ExWife2 drive the Saab. She once came back into the house and told me that the car was up the road with the key in the ignition and the window open as she couldn't get the key out (she didn't put it into reverse) and the door wouldn't open (the handle needed two pulls ...

I think it comes down to people who I have faith in their ability and awareness. Agreed. And aside from the insurance angle, I've noticed a pattern: * People I trust and I have offered my cars to always politely decline (Gavster & my Dad excepted). * People that directly ask to drive my cars ar...

My family members have drive my cars TP, it's just metal so I'm not that fussed. My BIL spun my Elise and wrecked the front clam so I've clearly never learnt my lesson A few people on here have driven some of my cars as well. Thankfully they all came back in one piece although one had far less fuel...

No way I'd let anyone drive my car without full cover normally. To be fair, Jimmy drove my Jimny without us worrying about insurance - he wasn't named on my policy so he'd have been legal relying on the third party cover on his own. But it's not a particularly valuable car. I think it comes down to...

I've just realised that the last manuel I drove was Jobbo's Jimny when we went green laning a couple of years ago! I'm clearly becoming an American which would at least explain why I'm getting fatter. :lol: Yeah, but your left leg will be withering through lack of use. As I'm on Shanks Pony at the ...
