Still have it.
I won a mug, made a Virgin tv installer a tea in it and the CUNT stole it. His number is 07557 232428 if anyone want to sign him up to anything dodgy.

You made me go and find this image - first time I met up with @Maurice and @Nefarious .

Incase anyone has just got excited at the sight of their identical forearm twin - Maurice is the model.

Otherwise known as the 'cheap part of Banstead'. Good chippie though.

My parents are in the village.

I won the second gen Jorg, but it only ever worked intermittently despite replacing the battery, so it gathered dust for many years and then I had a clear out and sold it as a fixer upper on ebay last year. I never liked it that much anyway TBH.

I won a Road Angel. Immediately sold it for a surprising amount on ebay.

I won a Road Angel thing too. Forgot all about it until I sold the business last year and found it still in its cellophane. Think I got eighty quid for it.

Cheers for hosting Matty. πŸ‘

I, too, won a Road Angel. Straight on eBay.

Thankfully this place has 0 upkeep...like the old gaff it moderates itself thanks the the unqiue clientell.

If you want some nostalgia, you can get a tickle from here...alas you can see some post titles, but not the content.

I’m getting flashbacks of arguments over the rolling radius of a new vs worn tyre and the effect it has on a 4wd system of a Mazda 6 mps………

It’s still unresolved to this day. I still don’t buy the tank tracks conspiracy.
