    Jokes???

    Lulu was a prostitute, but she didn't want her grandma to know. One day, the police raided the brothel and took all the girls outside and made them line up. By chance Lulu's grandma came by. Grandma asked "why are you standing in line here dear, Not willing to tell her the truth, Lulu told her that the police were handing out free Oranges and she was just lining up for some. Grandma says that's awfully nice of them. I think I will get some for myself and joined the end of the line. A policeman was going down the line asking for information from all the prostitutes. When he got to Grandma, he was bewildered and exclaimed, Wow still going at it at your age. How do you do it old girl? Grandma replied "oh its easy dear, I just take my dentures out, rip the skin back and suck them dry" The policeman fainted!!!
  2. We have tomtom system in wagons at work, its spot on. Free updates are good too! ?
  3. Does it integrate/show on your screen in the dash or have you got a seperate tomtom screen mounted?
  4. Not 100% sure on this so dont quote me, but i was on the thinking that you had to code the cd to the head unit before download could commence, making it a dealer only scenario!? Like i say, not 100% sure though.
  5. Lashing it down here, only fit for ducks!!! Stopped building progress again!!! [emoji35][emoji35] forecast for rest of day and all day tomoz too!
  6. She’ll be sat in a KFC somewhere filling her cheeks as usual [emoji849][emoji849]
  7. Poor Vesp... not even here to reiterate and defend his statements! ?
  8. Sure they werent just following you cos they got a good old waft of ‘Lancashire’ aroma coming from ya trunks! [emoji39][emoji23]
  9. [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23] Theres only two things that smell of fish Conor..... and one of ems fish! [emoji23]
  10. Still at work yet till 8, been hovering at 36 - 37 degrees here most of day. Just backed a truck out and coupled up to its trailer, dashboard still showing 32 degrees! [emoji15] I’m chuffing wetter than a mermaids minge! ??
  11. Buying used is always a gamble, only thing you can do really is buy a used saw that you may of already known from someone you know, or go and physically look at the 2nd hand saw that your interested in buying with your own eyes, ideally check that its fitted with genuine parts i.e whip covers off and check carb/cylinder etc to hopefully lessen your odds on future problems, even then its still a gamble. Take someone with you who knows about them. There will be many lads/lasses on here that have bought secondhand and got a belter of a buy and not really had much bother, but at same time there may be some that have bought a pup?!! Just the luck of the draw. Keep us posted on what you decided on.
  12. Not a Class by any chance was it? With V6 merc engine in it?! [emoji849]
  13. Be more like brussel sprouts i rekon! [emoji40]??
  14. Bet he still doesn’t visit Toni & Guy!!!
  15. Not always, and if you can prove its for medical reasons.... (your back) then may not affect it at all?! You’ll never know if ya dont ask tho. [emoji106]
  16. Prob wont fail a mot test if all is secure and seatbelts etc are all useable etc, but may invalidate your insurance if not classed as “standard fitment”
  17. Coopers are american owned and toyo are japanese owned, both classed as budget tires. Both be much of a muchness really, dont think you’ll go wrong with either [emoji106] Had a set of toyo proxies on my rs turbo years ago, stonking set of tyres i thought, but coopers are more associated with 4x4’s. Not sure if i helped ya in any way there..... ?
  18. He’s had the elbow symptoms for 12 months or more now, but has practically gone with his new regime and careful outlook. I have it at the mo in my right elbow, but mine is down to my building and plastering work, i get it flaring up and feeling worse when i start a new project [emoji51] We have HAVS monitoring at work where we have to wear vibration monitors on our wrists, we use needle scalers, grinders, all variations of impact guns and air tools, and we NEVER exceed the “recommended minimum” amount for a shift. BUT having said that, everyones body is different, some people can cope with certain things better than others. Gloves have never been “proven” to combat HAVS, no doubt they will help in some circumstances but they are not a definite cure, although you can buy “anti vibe” gloves, if you read the literature with them it’ll say in one way or another that they are not a preventative but basically only an aid. (Another sales tactic! [emoji6])
  19. I think that not only preventative maintenance should be carried out, but also general housekeeping of your tools i.e actually cleaning and blowing your tackle off (with compressed air! [emoji6][emoji16]) helps massively as no build ups of shite can progress to aid the wear that occurs as mentioned above.
  20. Not lost my avatar but not receiving any notifications? Only get to know on activity when i check the app or log on to my email, and everything always going trough to junk? Never happened before, i’ve deleted and reinstalled the app, reset my phone etc as you do, but still the same? I’m using the app not the desktop and using iphone se, anyone else experiencing the same? Mr Bullman, anything else i can do?
  21. Dapper looking cheeky little thing! [emoji106]

    Jokes???

    The plane just landed at Belfast airport n after coming to a halt, the Pilot does his customary speech but forgets to switch the intercom off! The Co-pilot asks the Pilot what he has got planned for the rest of the evening n the Pilot replies, "First up am goin for a shite n then am gonny bang the arse aff that new wee stewardess" Unaware every passenger has just heard him !!!! The wee stewardess was mortified and started running up to the cockpit to confront him, but trips and falls right before the cockpit door. A wee wommin helps her up and says, "Take yer time love, he’s going fur a shite first"
  23. Sure you havent trapped a nerve?! Lad at work has had a lot of arm/shoulder issues for a good 6 months or so now. Hes been taking things very cautiously just of late instead of just “getting stuck in” and hes only lasting issues are now at his finger tips. Nearly all is back to normal but has taken a long time, hes been to see a osteopath regards it all and been given some physio and exercises to do which have helped dramatically, especially for his sleeping etc. He looks and deals with things in a whole new light now because of it, you’ve only got one body, look after it best you can.
