Nothing yet but i aint having the best of weeks. Read Me

Driving along to work today and passed two coppers in an unmarked car. Dont know why i noticed them but i did. They followeded me (behind another car) for five minutes down the road and off at a junction. By this point i was driving by the book because i knew they were there and didnt want to get pulled over. They overtook the car behind me and squeezed into the gap directly behind me and pulled me over. Was expecting to get the usual check over for insurance, tax disc etc, mabye a few questions about my exhaust, sunstrip, or check tyres. Had all my preplanned excuses/reasons running round in my head but nothing prepared me for what he said. Him "Good morning Sir, do you realise you have a dirty number plate" Me "I didnt realise it was that dirty" Him "Do you have a cloth" Me " I am afraid i havent got an old cloth in the car" Him " Would you like to step into the patrol car sir" Ended up with a £30 fixed penalty for dirty number plate. Moral of the story: When a copper asks if you have an old cloth, jump out of the car, take you sock off and clean the number plate. No sock is worth £30

Its not every day you can find a single pump petrol station in the middle of nowhere with a sign saying "ring bell for slave", and someone tells you they will have to go find the key to turn the thing on. Complete madness but a small miracle considering ruby was running on thin air !!!

Did u get lost sharon ???

Thats typical. I only got it so i dont have to sit arround in the car like a prat when i park up. Anyone know how long I should set the turbo timer for ??? I dont bother much over short distances and just turn the car off but not sure about longer driving or where my right foot has been an ickle twichy.

Fitted my turbo timer today. Works fine but i cant turn on the alarm while the car is still running. Any suggestions on how to overcome this ???

hope i aint makeing u spend extra pennies he has them in stock

Not many going from edinburgh/lothians. Does the meeting time/place suit everyone ?????

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmadness in here it is, welcome to it all, see u sun morn.

am sure its the sensor for the heater. theres a position on the middle knob that keeps the car at a constant temp depending on where the temp switch is set at.

Roll on the new software with different sections for types of posts !!! As i have said before i think a better structured forum/site will sort out some problems.
