    I do like getting the all clear from the doctor further to a cancer scare.  Still got lots of problems in my life but at least now I've (hopefully) got a lot of time to deal with them.

  • I do like finally finishing a model kit I first started 5 and a half years ago.  It's a very special model that i was supposed to finish by the time the aircraft took her final flights across the UK

Saw them at a roundabout last week in Worcester doing the same

They were two young lady's though. More pleasing to the eye.lol

But I'm skint already as saving for mountune remap / exhaust amongst other things :sad:

Although today's humidity is a bit too much:sweat::sweat::sweat:   I do like that one washing machine load is completely dry on the line: by the time the next load is ready to hang out: , wet to dry in 55 minutes:smile:  It also helps out with the loss of pegs (see the I don't like thread).

Do the hungry honkers get anything for honking?

My neighbour was bending over in her bikini, reaching into the depths of her wheelie bin, when the Google car went by last time.  She rather disappointed they'd edited her out of Street View.

I do like that is The bank holiday weekend and that my daughter has booked the whole week off. Means a week of not getting up early to take her to work.

I do like listening to AC/DC but all the songs sung by Bon Scott.  I think I prefer Bon singing to Brian buts its a tough call.  I also like that today is FOF and after milking tonight I'm actually off for a whole day.  A WHOLE DAY!!!!! I also like that in 5 days time.  I will no longer be milking cows.  Boooommmmmm

I've heard that as well, but FOF sounds so much better.  Usually as I can never p off early

That makes sense now.

You could've tried Fork Off Friday said with an Irish accent it's indistinguishable from the real thing:laugh: 

An Irish mate of a mate got slapped once for asking the girl at the counter in a Burgerking restaurant , "Any chance of a fork?"  She blushed, lent forward towards him and slapped quite hard across the face:ohmy:

He didn't realise, you picked up the cutlery from the aisle in the centre of the room: rather than at the counter.by the till.  Added to which, he had been flirting with her whilst he waited for his food to be cooked

I do like seeing a semi-local Fiesta which would be a nice little run around for my mother (and save the 405's clutch from complete destruction!), although there are no pictures on the Gumtree listing.  The price leads me to believe there will be some wear and tear to it though, despite the description of "great condition".

I've emailed the seller for pictures/more information, so we'll see...  If it is in good condition, I wouldn't think twice about snapping it up.  It's the 1.25 engine as well, rather than the terrible 1.3. 

Time will tell!

Bentley Parts Shipping Continental Schnell 😀

Well, communication with the Fiesta seller was going well until he went silent... :mellow:

But, I then saw a MK1 Focus pop up (also semi-local) and have arranged to view that tomorrow morning.  Who knows, by this time tomorrow I could be a worthy member of the forum again, rather than just hanging around banging on about my Peugeots! :laugh:

I do like leaving this morning with this...

And coming back with this...

More information/pictures will follow in a separate thread!  Lets just say yesterday's plan came to fruition.

I do like the fact this morning on the way home from work I had a skoda (audi underneath) desperately trying to keep up with me whilst all I was doing was cruising :laugh:

Not a Fiesta, but a MK1 Focus!  I'm very happy with it, especially at the price... 

About to give it a quick wash and will then post some pictures.
