  1. You're right, I'm knackered, it's all that ironing, cooking, cleaning, shopping, full time job and being an all round domestic goddess that does it! If you want some serious advice, learn to iron if you can't already, be good around the house without having to be forced and try to manage a bunch of flowers once every couple of weeks. Most of us don't want much (once we've got a Z), it's the little things that count but unfortunately some guys find even that too much like hard work!
  2. I don't think you need any help from an old crusty like me - I'm the same age as you you know, well past it!
  3. so what was there before?

    DAY TO DAY CAR

    Ah, I think I remember it off Top gear now. Was it the car Clarkson said would be ok if you were being chauffered in it, and then he sat in the back and steered it with rope or something attached to the steering wheel?
  5. Trust you Sorry, that's me being OCD as per usual! Can I just ask is that what the head unit etc normally looks like? Because I've got two things in my car - cd unit with DVD unit above I wondered what was there before. Looks like the DVD may be useless afterall but what would have been in the hole?
  6. looks really nice, now get that vacuum on those mats!

    DAY TO DAY CAR

    I take it they still make them then? Wonder why there seems to be so few.
  8. I had fish and chips for tea (sorry dinner for you southerners) but that was a one off. As a rule I hate takeaways but only because my other half is a total addict and I just get sick of the sight of them. It's far nicer when a takeaway is an ocassional treat. Sorry anyway, going off track again, you boys get back to discussing women for a change.

    DAY TO DAY CAR

    I can only recall seeing one on a TV advert some time ago. Either I haven't seen one on the road, which would seem odd, or I've just thought it was a vectra or I've not noticed it at all.
  10. dont tell me, let my psychic powers work....................kentuky, macdonalds, indian, chinese not necessarily in that order.
  11. what? And scratch your paint work? No chance!
  12. do you lot ever think about anything else?...............oh don't bother answering that one, I already know.
  13. ey up lad - wanna see me whippets?
  14. or just get your face boxed!
  15. there'll be no more pics of me on here since you lot nicked them out of my photobucket last time! I notice that other poor girl you did it to hasn't been back lately.............
  16. Hi there. So what takes you to Zambia? Are there many Z's out there?
  17. He's the guy that pounced on that terrorist in glasgow?
  18. I'm useless with a camera but if it's nice at the weekend (long shot) I'll give it a go!
  19. nice to know we're all as sad as each other!
  20. Yep - just like my trip to the cash machine last night!
  21. what would you like pics of? Me sloshing petrol over myself or drinking the gin? Drove to work for the first time today - there are NO car enthusiasts here so my car is currently outshining all the vauxhall's in the carpark.
  22. ok so that's two loud beating heart sessions tonight now - but I've sussed them both. 1. Try to start the car and key won't turn and it just beeps at me - doh, it's cos the steering lock's on. 2. Go to mini bank - no i didn't need any money right now but I wanted to pose in my new car. Get back in car, turn key - nothing! I'm sat there for about 3 minutes thinking f*** - this has got something to do with the water. Try again, no luck, and again, same. Just really starting to have palpitations and then decide to poke the little stick in the hole (immobilizer) and hey presto - we have ignition! Although I hadn't locked the car cos the hole in the wall was right next to it the car obviously immobilised itself. Crapped myself for a minute though. I know it sounds daft but if you dont know you don't know! Now I do! Took my dad out for a spin on a nice long empty road earlier and he was well impressed!
  23. oh bollox! sounds like you need to come round and share my gin! Not good news for me either with my slightly 'different' spacing!
  24. Right! I didn't think my eyes were that bad!
  25. didn't notice that! Dare I go out again and see if I can actually start the car now?
