bloody weather!!
« on: February 06, 2009, 05:14:04 pm »
so just when i thought things were getting back on track with the car along came 2 feet of snow and screw'd up a weeks worth of work.
Not impressed, got a good quote to respray the car and was booked in on the 16th of this month going to have to hold on tight to funds till
everything gets back on track.

traction control is for wimps Gaz.
Gaffer tape is like "the force" - it has a light side, a dark side and it holds the universe together.

There's nothing that shouts "Poor Workmanship"  more than wrinkles in the gaffer tape.....

The diesel Focus charged relentlessly through the snow and ice, while the Four lay snug in the garage. If I don't get her up to Knockhill this summer for a bit o' fun, i'm gonna cry.

been driving my mums wee yaris whilst the puma is in getting checked over for MOT and that wee car is great for snow, narrow tyres are great, thinking for next year i might get a standard set of faff wheels for the winter.
