  1. Oh Stubby, you beauty. I've some cracking big potatoes and a lot of butter in stock atm. My mate, Bob is a connoisseur of the tuber. Knows all the varieties and all the uses. The sort of fellow you need around to rebuild a civilisation.
  2. Sheatbelts, Moneypenny! Seatbelt mounting bolts are all 7/16-20 UNF. Some international agreement to never differ because they're apparently such an important part of the car. You can have a thoroughly metric Jap/Euro/whatever and it'll still have imperial seat belt mounts. Interested to know whether Chinese car manufacturers capitulate. I hope not. Stick that up your jumper, USA, Burma, Liberia and Yemen. Automotive nationality is a myth these days anyway. Everything's JE this, JIT that, flexibly integrated the other. My French van is Japanese. My dad's Volvo is American. Women are men. Men are pigs. Easter eggs are illegal. **************** off.
  3. I walked into the kitchen this morning at about eight thirty, looked at the fridge and thought, “I’ve got three cans of perry in there. They’ll be cold and crisp. I could have one.” I’m blaming Bolam, the influential degenerate.
  4. Better. We’ll all pretend we didn’t see the wheel nuts guess.
  5. Belting day today. No absconding, despite some properly viet cong close deer and hare. Worked closer than he has before. Still has no idea what he’s meant to be doing but somehow mostly achieves it anyway. Behaved impeccably with other dogs etc. Shrugged off a grumpy pointer a few times. Didn’t take ungentlemanly advantage of the little cocker bitch who loves him. One of the good days (to look back on when he makes a twat of me at some indeterminate forthcoming time). Looking fresh Looking tired My carpets? Looking muddy.
  6. You’ve collectively got until I’m out of the bath to get the imp joint. It’s a lovely bit of trivia.
  7. Don’t do that. Some future owner will need to replace them at some point and order the parts (imperial) from Bandit. Best case, they don’t fit and he has to twat around working out why. Worst case, he guns them in and buggers the threads again. The US deserved 9/11 and deserves all the rest for subjecting the world to the ongoing arseache of imperial threads. BIPM should invade them if they won’t give it up. Quiz: There’s one imperial threaded joint in every car. What joint is it?
  8. A jam jar. Not in a hipster way. They're harder to smash. Round shoulders, strong lip. Tumbler if feeling bourgeois.
  9. Are you wearing a Nomex suit‽
  10. 50p off tonight. Just as well, since I paid £750 for a piece of aluminium earlier today.
  11. Or like this if between two.
  12. For only a k (assuming it's a one off) I'd have probably made up a yoke/pole type thing.
  13. But alas. If you want proper Kid Rock, it's probably this Kid Rock, who you probably wouldn't leave your children with.
  14. Here's a gateway.
  15. How about Kid Rock? It's not country but it isn't not country. I suspect most people on here have met a groundie who looks like him.
  16. Also live at San Quentin. Any drummers on here? I like the St Anger snare. I like the song. I like the album.
  17. Had this stuck in my head for roughly a calendar quarter.
  18. They look like the one. Are they not here yet?
  19. Do you like Johnny Cash?
  20. The door in that scene makes me laugh. Fck off great locking mechanism and then swings open like it's made of cardboard.
  21. I used to listen to Bob Harris Country ('folk, roots and Americana') driving home from Bury Smallbore in my fabulous little Vitara. I can still remember a song about a crofter dismayed at Londoners buying them up for leisure. Searched and searched. Never found it again. Think about it often.
  22. Open another bottle and stick Forrest Gump on. The soundtrack's decent and you can come back in a couple of hours and vent to us about what a bastard Jenny is.
  23. It gets better (less worse) as you go on. You listened to all 18 minutes, right?
  24. Mick and I regularly exchange media through a derelict but still-encrypted grindr server. I keep him supplied with his favourite type of Northern Irish pornography (fcking Brexit). He was recently kind enough to send this back, which he's been listening to on repeat apparently.
