    If i was driving the mini to work today i would have drowned! nice weather for ducks though, i suppose and on the subject of ducks, there has been a theory developed at work, it started off just to wind up the Navy boys that have infested our hangar, but basically, if a ship gets a hole in the bottom it sinks, right?, then why dont ducks sink? therefore they must have a watertight ass just a thought...

    I know I'm quite emotional anyway, so this story especially touched me... A couple were Christmas shopping on Christmas Eve and the whole place was heaving, packed with other last-minute shoppers. Walking through the shopping centre, the surprised wife looked up from a window display and noticed her husband was nowhere to be seen. She knew they had lots still to do and she became very upset. She rummaged in her handbag and found her mobile phoned and then used it to call her husband to ask him where he was. The husband in a calm voice replied: "Darling, you remember the jewellery shop we went into five years ago, where you fell in love with that diamond ne…

    Jewish Cab Driver A clearly inebriated woman, stark naked, jumped into a taxi in New York City and laid down on the back seat. The cab driver, an old Jewish gentleman, opened his eyes wide and stared at the woman. He made no attempt to start the cab. The woman glared back at him and said, "What's wrong with you, honey? - Haven't you ever seen a naked woman before?" The old Jewish driver answered, "Let me tell you sumsing, lady – I vasn't staring at you like you tink; det vould not be proper vair I come from." The drunk woman giggled and responded, "Well, if you're not staring at my boobs or ass sweetie, what…

    The Road to Inverness One misty Scottish morning an Englishman is driving through the hills to Inverness. Suddenly out of the mist, a massive red-haired highlander steps into the middle of the road. The man is at least six feet four. He has a huge red beard and, despite the wind, mist, and near freezing temperatures, is wearing only his kilt, a tweed shirt and a tam-o'-shanter at a rakish angle. At the roadside there also stands a young women. She is absolutely beautiful - slim, shapely, fair complexion, golden hair....... heart stopping. The driver stops and stares, and his attention is only distracted from the lovely girl when the red animal opens the c…

    HELLO ALL! Recently I embarked on my first attempt to restore a motor vehicle. I bought a 1976 Yamaha Chappy off craigslist.com (a locally oriented trade site) a couple years ago. I rode it hard for about a year. The battery failed, I possibly blew a fuse, the electrics stopped working, something happened to put this beautiful piece of machinery out of business. This is a desparate call for help in a world with too much information for me to find what I need. If anyone knows the whereabouts of a 1976 Chappy manual I could really use it. I've got a passion to know how this thing works but it's quite difficult without the right information. Thank you. Ride on Charlie

    Hey peeps I need to pick some brains... Basically my mini is feeling poorly, with the choke fully out and no throttle applied it revs its little 1275 head off, once warm it will run without choke but hesitates and splutters under load, this leads me to believe it's a fueling issue but where do I start? Also you can see the heat rising from the exhaust even at idle slim pretty sure it's lean... Any help appreciated, :/ Steve

    I'm sick to fucking death of Utd getting their own way every fucking game. For years on end we have seen Utd get all the decisions to go in their favour. It is spoiliong the game. They get offside goals, penalties, the players order the rewf to send opposing players off. It is pathetic. When they are losing they get extra time until they score an equaliser or/and a winner. I really fucking hate them now, they are spoiling the game. On sunday because Chelsea come back from two nil down, surprise fucking surprise, players get sent off and a clear offside goal is allowed. Torres was fouled. They are so fucking shit they need an offside goal to beat 9 men. Also the m…

    I have been in many places, but I've never been in Cahoots. Apparently, you can't go alone. You have to be in Cahoots with someone. I've also never been in Cognito. I hear no one recognizes you there. I have, however, been in Sane. They don't have an airport; you have to be driven there. I have made several trips there, thanks to my friends, family and work. I would like to go to Conclusions, but you have to jump, and I'm not too much on physical activity anymore. I have also been in Doubt. That is a sad place to go, and I try not to visit there too often. I've been in Flexible, but only when it was very important to stand firm. Sometimes I'm in Ca…

Best wishes and keep your chins up. But saying that your all Yanks so are always up beat and chirpy! not like us grumpy mumbling Brits lol

    I think this whole Saville thing going on is very bizarre. All of a sudden tens of people are coming forward stating that they knew Jimmy molested young girls. What use is it now he is dead? I think the people who knew about this and let it continiue are as bad as him and responsible for countless acts of abuse for allowing him to continue. I think the problem was Jimmy was so high profile and loved by millions that no one dared to challenge him, and the BBC let it all continue because he generated them millions and boosted their ratings. I have just been reading that John Peel was also a paedo who in fact married a fifteen year old girl in the U.S. Times were very differ…

    had 2 today the second is probably a little upset having no choice but to take the stoke exit. The fact he was programming his sat nav, getting the address from someone on the phone (that is at his ear). Seemed to be unimportant to him. He had the choice of intimate terms with 44tonnes of fully laden artic or take the lane he drifted into. Twat.
