Re: Your fleet running reports

Addition to the fleet incoming, but I CBA with the usual guessing game so: it's an E36 Compact. Won accidentally on ebay this evening when the high bid got cancelled and left me holding the baby. Ooops. Anyone live near Norwich ?? Do you need another car that (I'm assuming) is inferior to every oth...

Re: The Movie Thread

Deadpool 2 was fantastic. It was genuinely laugh out loud funny and absolutely not for children.

He is quite an interesting character. He was the surprise speaker at a corporate event I did a few weeks back and (unsurprisingly) he got the most laughs and attention. He has certainly done some things in his life, all driven by his "concepts": pay attention, you never know where opportun...

That's about right

Re: Bagels

Bagels should be toasted to avoid the doughiness. Ciabatta is amazing if done right (this is like deja vu all over again, I'm sure we had a similar thread on the old forums): lightly toasted and decked out with langoustines , smoked salmon, avocado, prawns, lemon, salt and pepper and some crunchy i...

Re: Book review thread

Currently reading "Eyeless in Gaza" by Huxley. Was a birthday present and it is possibly one of the most frustrating books I've read since I had a go at reading the Icelandic Sagas in the original language. It is peppered with random French and Latin quotes (which makes sense as the protag...

Re: The idle dreaming “what next” thread.

I was browsing ads for C124s on Monday. A 320 Sportline in black with cream interior is mighty appealing. The family bus is staying for the next 3-4 years to probably be replaced with a newer version of same. Realistically won't have funds to do something more until house extension is done and the D...

Unfortunately for DeskJockey that didn't make it to lunch this also means I have to deny ever having met him. ;) So any damage my kids did to the car will be untraceable!
