Had the VX out for the first time this year. Roof off, wind in my hair, the music of the Milltek in my ears. Aaahhh!

Suppose I could get some and then if I don't get one I could
Give it to the kids and say we are trying a new cereal for breakfast?

You know when you go to the gents and the lid is down on the toilet that there is something under there you don't want to see!

If it doesn't flush first time you put the lid down. Warns the next person that a big floater lurks beneath. Simple toilet etiquette.

Quite right. Let's face it there is no other good reason for a bloke to put the toilet lid down.

Thanks, I have repaired myself before but this is visible from the side so needs colour matching and a better job than I can do I think!

Why is it that tractor drivers round our way decide rush hour Friday is the best time to crawl down the road at 10mph :(

slogging in a hot garden today - got to 4.00pm realised low on tinnies. Oh No!. Is there anywhere open? Call on the beer hunter! Jumps into topless VX, scours the land for beer. Sainsburys sorted :-) 4 x 15 packs of australias finest wallaby p$%s. Evening salvaged :-)

Further proof, if any were needed, that beer is medicinal. Good work, chap.

He is you know - referring to the death row proggy last night. Hope he managed to escape in the end.

Cheers. The only major worry I have is one of te shocks looked a tiny bit moist and they look like the original Bilstein's (car is 2003). Hope it's not leaking.

spray it down with some brake and clutch cleaner before you take it, where did you decide to take it in the end?

I am taking it to the guy who does work on my shed. He is related through marraige (brother of brother-in-law) and a friend. He has invited me to be present during the MOT so I can see what he does.
