Bloody hell that's shiny!!!!! really tidy looking motor you have there mate! Love the blobeyes in black too!

Ha ha ha! So it's not just me then! Just had the farm hands out clearing the roads here, apparently that's down to my sideways entry to the carpark!

Was fun getting into work through the lanes this morning!!!! Getting thick here now the big tracks I left in the farm track up to the office are covered, kinda wishing I had stayed at home tbh! Tempted to take the scoob out across the fields at lunch though!

Seems to have just started here!!! Woohoo!

...and my thanks for coming straight to doing a decat to mine to do the cambelt... well, almost! Zebedee, by all accounts, yours sounds awesome now!

Iain was talking to me about this earlier, more than happy to addend and help in any way I can. A very worthy cause and hopefully a fitting tribute to your uncle. 1.scoobywag 2. Stum450n et al 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.

Woo hoo! More kids that will no doubt beat me! Will be good to see you again Andy... was down your way earlier with work. Kept my eyes peeled!

I probably would but that picture's giving me the creeps! Someone's photoshopped her head REALLY badly!

Tim Shaw's his name... his asylum show used to be 'okay' but he's pretty much a complete cock! It was 50p his Lotus went for by the way, bought it back off the guy for a grand though! Way to go Tim, that didn't make him look an even bigger idiot than it did before did it!!!!

Woohoo! Thanks for getting that up, I hadn't heard the news!

OUCH!!!! Freudian slip there Iain? We'll be along too! 1. Big 'D' and co 2. gc8-r 3. Stu and the rabble 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.

No worries mate, thought it may help even as a rough outline. Hope you're on the mend now though, it's never nice!

Hi guys, I've added the regular second Sunday of the month Kidlington meet to the SIDC calendar but without confirmation from Iain (Big 'D') it's still very much STC. Obviously this will be amended as and when dates etc change (May's Abingdon show for example). Stu Whoops, the link to the calendar is here!

Bugger, forgot about that... I'm getting some lettering down my arms the day before. Bowling's gonna hurt!!!! Was a good laugh last time so I'm well up for it again, will probably bring the tribe this time too!

Yes mate, as far as the law is concerned all he did was set my alarm off... that's not a prosecutable offence. Hitting him with a bat is. I doubt the police would ever find him (I'm surprised the even took an interest at the time tbh) and no one's going to walk into a police station and say "Well, whilst I was trying to steal a car, I got attacked by the owner and I want to press charges..." so I think I can safely put this one behind me without watching over my shoulders. Thanks mate, appreciate it! Nearly rang you over Crimbo actually mate... had a bit of trouble with the brother in law but it got sorted in the end! To be honest mate (and again, this is only my opinion) I think it started far too long ago to change anyones way of life with a beating (as tempting as the prospect can be!), I think the parents of these little *******s need naming, shaming and putting into ****ing boot camps until they wake the **** up and realise that they have a ****ing responsibility to teach by example, educate and love their children... what 12yr old has the foresight to live their life being respectful, courteous and hardworking without the guidance of an adult figure that can be seen to give a **** about them. If a child feels no one cares about them (who wouldn't think that knowing their parents didn't) why the hell would they care about anyone else? The crime levels in this country are a result of the system being ****ed and not the cause of it. Sorry, it gets me really angry when I think of all the poor little *******s that are essentially bringing themselves up... been there and it's not nice.

Mate, in pretty much every respect i agree with you and the fact that im more likely to face prosecution for what happened sunday morning than the little c**t who thought it perfectly alright to take away someones livelyhood and only means of transport just for kicks is absolutely fooking stupid BUT had i hit him around the head and not the arms as i swung i could quite probably have someones life on my concience. No car is worth that, its just an object. A beautiful, joyfull and thrilling object but an object nonetheless. However had he been a threat to my wife or children in any way it would be an entirely different matter. I choose (as much as humanly possible) not to be a violent person but i do think that when it comes to the truly important things in life, all lifestyle choices go out of the window and it becomes about a lot more than a posession. Just my opinion/two pennies worth.

Ouch! You sound like you know what you're doing though so I'm sure she's in good hands! Givus a shout if you want a thermos brought round or spanners passing, I'm in Witney too and wouldn't mind seeing how to get around the insides of a boxer engine!

She's doing brilliantly thanks mate... seems to do nothing but sleep!

Was going to say! A smack across the arms with a length of wood is one thing... maiming the *******s isn't my cuppa, just thought it best to warn everyone of the tactic used really... just glad being overly paranoid has worked in my favour for once!

Got woken by the car alarm this morning (around 4am), was windy and the car looked fine so i turned the alarm off and locked the car back up... 10mins later, the same thing. Back to bed and the same routine 3 more times. Thought something smelt fishy so out went the lights and out came the trusted baseball bat... Suffice to say, some little fooker got the shock of his life when he started rocking the car again!!! Police think he was try to trick me into turning the alarm off so he could pinch the car... Keep your eyes and ears peeled folks! Stu ----------------------------------------------- Just to point out (after re-reading this and a day for it to sink in) that I'm not normally violent and nor do I condone violent behavior in any way, this was just an exceptional circumstance combined with a distinct lack of sleep... these early mornings and late nights really are starting to take their toll! Cheers, Stu

Whoops dp!

Looks like i missed this thread at the time. Just want to add my thanks too. Iain, your always the fist to lend a hand and a top bloke to boot... Its very much appreciated! Thanks for all your help since we moved down here!

1. Big 'D' and co 2. Stum450n et al 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. It's my birthday that day so it should make for a rather nice day out! Oh, and well done Craigy for sorting it for us!
