Just for you martin. You'll have to click on it and go to my sons photobucket page, i cant seem to embed it.

sorry stanski but martinmac mentioned it first in the other thread and I resisted the temptation. You all seem so good at advertising other peoples Capris that I thought I'd mention a genuine one on your doorstep. I don't know how to do pics so I'll have to wait for my son to put them up.

while you are raging about Capri's I have a very very nice 2.8 injection special finished in laquor red with half leather trim '85B 69k genuine miles for sale if anyone's interested. I'll try to put it up in the for sale section with pics at the weekend.

my son lets out his house in Mansfield using a letting egency, only a small local family firm but they are tip top. They regularly visit the property to carry out maintenance checks and any problems they find or complaints from the tennants are referred to my son for him to sort himself or they have their own team of local tradesmen who sort it out immediately.

I obtained my name when I became the shop keeper on Zclub.net. Someone called me Arkwright as a joke and it stuck. Had to change all my forum names. I now have the brown coat and glasses but still need a till (and a Gladys Emanuel!)

Once upon a time, in the Kingdom of Heaven , God went missing for six days. Eventually, Archangel Michael found him on the seventh day resting. He enquired of God, 'Where have you been?' God pointed downwards through the clouds. Archangel Michael looked puzzled and said, 'What is it?' 'It's a planet,' replied God, 'and I've put LIFE on it. I'm going to call it Earth and it's going to be a great place of balance.' 'Balance?' inquired Michael, still confused. God explained, pointing down to different parts of the Earth. 'For example, North America will be a place of great opportunity and wealth, while South America is going to be poor; the Middle East over there will be a hot spot, and Russia will be a cold spot. Over there I've placed a continent of white people and over there is a continent of black people.' God continued, pointing to the different countries. This one will be extremely hot and arid while this one will be very cold and covered in ice.' The Archangel , impressed by God's work, then pointed to another area of land and asked, 'What's that?' 'Ah,' said God. That's the North of England, the most glorious place on earth. There are beautiful people, seven Premiership football teams in the North West alone, and many impressive cities; it is the home of the world's finest artists, musicians, writers, thinkers, explorers and politicians. The people from the North of England are going to be modest, intelligent and humorous and they're going to be found travelling the world. They'll be extremely sociable, hard-working and high-achieving, and they will be known throughout the world as speakers of truth.' Michael gasped in wonder and admiration but then proclaimed, 'What about balance God, you said there will be BALANCE!' God replied very wisely, 'Wait till you see the bunch of tossers I'm putting down South!'

nice one!

Had Chips Away repair a nasty scratch on my Capri made by a stupid delivery driver. Only cost £30 and he made a super job. Tosser at my local bodyworks gave me about 20 mins verbal bullshit and wanted £300.

I would love the British GP to be held at Donington however I just don't think the venue is practical or financially viable. Yes there is history; Yes it is slightly more central to the UK than Silverstone, Yes it has an airport next door and Yes it has 'easy' access to the M1. Having said that the M1 access is diabolical. On a weekday it's always busy, rush hour is a total mess and motor cycle days it's hell on earth. It would cost tens of millions to sort out decent vehicular access to the site to cater for one big race per year. Silverstone has the infrastructure already in place. Road links are good and well managed parking is good and facilities are OK, they just aren't posh enough for the poison dwarfs rich friends. Money does need chucking at Silverstone to upgrade it but not the same quantities that Donington needs. You have to look a lot deeper than the venue. If Donington goes ahead I predict that the M1 will be totally bunged up for 3 days at least with traffic going nowhere at all and the whole venture will be a total disaster. Of course it won't cost the poison dwarf anything but if you've forked out over £100 for a ticket you will be well pi**ed that you've sat in the UK's biggest traffic jam and missed the race.

my son had a similar meeting with a badger and his 300zxtt. It fitted under the front ok but smashed his rear bumper (forgot the posh word) on its way out.

if the puppy grew big enough and behaved like this one you could have furry seats!

as far as chewing furniture, doors, skirting etc if he starts again a smear of Vick on the affected site will stop him. It won't stain the area and its smell will drive the dog away. If he is doing it in your presence or just being generally naughty with you nearby then a squirt of clean water on the nose from a small squeezy bottle you can fit in your pocket will soon teach him to behave. After a short time you will just have to show him the bottle without squirting. No need to squirt in his eyes or do anything unpleasant, it is the surprise of the squirt which has the effect.

'ello stranger

www.sherwoodcastle.co.uk just off the A614 near Ollerton. Notts. Very quiet. Log cabins set round a lake, never stopped there but popped in to spy out the land.

by your calculations I must be a very old fart, however I share your view. It's time the government woke up and stopped patting young offenders on the head and got back to a sound thrashing

at that price you should snap his hand off. You will have the satisfaction of knowing yours is the only car to have one!
