Little extra effort this year and a week or so earlier but felt like bringing a bit of Christmas cheer to the road - few lights of the roof have let me down but I am not getting up there so they will have to do for this year.

Offerings for St Bin!

And the Angel said unto Sam, “lo, for if you leave out the offerings of mould, skankybins and murd, he shall come and under a bright star he will consume the gifts and there shall be peace, apart perhaps from the rattling of his chariot and the chatter of his disciples in their garments of hi-viz.”

December 2015 when I was working for Torino Motors which was Maserati Auckland NZ before we got bought out by the faceless chain and it went downhill fast.
Worked with some nice guys and we had exciting cars everyday.
Not one off us now working for the Winger Group says it all really.

Must be. All of my pictures from Euro trips are of empty bottles and various high jinks in car parks!
You forgot to mention the pushbike you crashed p!ssed into the front of a hotel. I had to sidestep to let you through

This made me laugh :)
The Best shed you'll ever own! Although it's done more miles than the Star Ship Enterprise, it's the most reliable car you could possibly come across. Like my ex, it's been around the block countless times, been banged from every angle and everyone's had a ride in it, however, unlike my ex, it's faithful, reliable and will never let you down! It had four brand new, expensive tires fitted and even though it's been a few weeks, they still have more of a grip than my teenage stepson! It's as dirty as my wife but whereas my wife cleans up pretty good, this car will look just as bad after it's been washed. It's got more history than a Hollywood therapist's filing cabinet and recently had new caliper, pads and discs fitted too. It comes with a reverse parking clunker, also called a tow bar and has loads of space in the back making it useful for so many things. For example; I used it for hunting. Not intentionally, I hit a deer! Hence the crack in the grill, missing vent from the bottom of the bumper and dent in the drivers side wing. The engine is bullet proof. There's a little bit of smoke from cold when you first start it up in the morning but it clears within seconds and is fine for the rest of the day. The one back door doesn't lock but it's nothing to worry about because nobody would ever steal it (and if they did they'd probably bring it back) The MPG numbers I'd trust about as much as the latest COVID figures but other than that, everything works exactly as it should do, bar the key fob. It locks the car but you have to use the key to unlock it. CD player, Air con, electric windows etc etc amazingly somehow all work. Originally bought as a murder weapon, (that's why its in my dads name) but the injunction worked. Excellent on fuel and lovely to drive. Ideal for export or a ram raid. MoT'd until mid January next year and I honestly can;t think of anything it would fail on. Mechanically, it's spot on, It's just like many of the girls from my past, it looks a bit better in the dark and after a few drinks. So if you want a car to cheer up the neighbors, that will never let you down and will make your life easier because the kids would never want you to take them to school in it, then this is the car for you.

What I like most about this picture is the composition, it’s almost Banksy like in its framing, a bike carefully parked by a slightly inebriated person and in the background some people heading to the car park to wake up the angriest welsh rugby prop in the world.

Ah, the angry naked man who fell ar5e first into a bowl of chips and shattered the bowl. I remember it well.

Perhaps you were on the table next to him as far as he was concerned. None the less, I would really have loved that, a great claim to fame, either way I’m sure. The wife and I were staying on an Island off Malaysia, just on holiday of course, and Pavarotti was staying in the place next to us, noisy Bast@rd.
I once childminded for Richard Curtis and Emma Fraud when they went to the opening of the Millenium done - I didn't have a clue who they were and did ask how they managed to get tickets for that! They also had Hugh Grants phone number lying around - I did wonder if it was THE H G.............

And didst the lord look down on the unworthy and issue a warning - "Wrong FECKING day, it's Thursday" ;)
