Thank you, but any attendee's of Brooklands will see that its far from great condition.. Boot, rear bumper and resprayed passenger door (done before my ownership) are all faded or the wrong colour. I'll sort it.. eventually!

I have something...

I'd started the car with and was going to head to work when I'd left the server backup tapes so I went back into the house and got them and then headed off.

I was half way to work when I suddenly see this big ginger thing jump into the s seat me.

I hit the brakes hard and got some angry person behind beep their horn at me. The ginger thing mean while fallen into the foot well and then I realised it was a neighbour’s cat as I'd seen it before. It must have climbed inside when I'd gone back for my stuff. It sat in the foot well ears flat down yowling angrily and looking at me with murderous eyes.

I pulled over worried my face was about to be ripped off.

I thought about just opening the door and letting it out where it was but then the cat would be lost and it'd be a bit mean really.

So I thought maybe I could grab it and put it in the boot. I put my hand out to pick it up and it went mad hissing and lashing out with claws. I got my hands out the way and wasn't going to try that again.

I thought for a bit and a genius idea hit me. I managed to my coat off and blocked the cat from attacking me and then I opened up the ski hatch open without being killed by the cat!

I then used my coat to push the cat out of the foot well and it hissed and struggled but then jumped behind the chair and leapt into the boot.

I quickly slammed the hatch shut and drove home again.

I got back opened the boot it jumped out of the boot and ran out off without a backward glance or thank you.

Oh well... I've seen it around again since then but if it sees me it makes a hasty retreat.

You nuts?
you should NEVER forgive her, use it at every dispute from now on for the next 10yrs (exactly as they do with anything you may have inadventedly done/said years ago...)
Chances like that are few for us men and should never be given away like that!

OMG shocked

And she's still you girlfriend - must be a keeper laugh

I've found nothing nasty in my coupe - it had a full valet before I picked it up and looked amazing under the garage lights filling it up for the drive home (across the Peaks - amazing!)


It is hard to understand how a cemetery can raise burial rates and blame it on the cost of living
