A certain detective (accompanied by the fragrant members of a local SPG unit) had to search the premises of a well known owner of an Oriental restaurant (not for the first time it must be said).

As was customary, when such occasions arose, the owner displayed his disapproval of the police action by addressing the plain-clothes element of the invading force by declaiming – “You for coffee?”

"2 OWNERS FROM NEW OWNED BY A DOCTOR SINCE 1 YEAR OLD" Must be a child prodigy.

I can confirm that - Dr Di Agnosis a real stunner from Wales.

In addition I must send my congratulations to Di on the third anniversary of her forming a life partnership with the lovely Dr Steffi Scope - may they have many rewarding years of probing and palpating ahead of them.

Doesn't look electrically controlled to me - heavier springs/struts perhaps?

The opening action looks to be robust enough to cause injury.

That is one crap joke,I think it should be returned to sender.

Aach Bitzey - don't have a wooden heart - Steve needs a bit of sympathy, that's all.

I much prefer TV fare to films it must be said (I seldom watch them).

Looking at me DVD's I see;

40+ Operas and other music (concerts, recitals - that sort of thing).

Complete series of;

30 Rock
Dead Like Me
Weeds
Seinfeld
Caroline In The City
Curb Your Enthusiam
L Word
Twin Peaks
Spooks
The Wire
Rescue Me
Sopranos
The Avengers (Emma Peel and Tara King years)
Gideons Way
The Baron
Rowan and Martins Laugh In (sadly incomplete)

In addition to many other incomplete collections.

3 satellite systems and two MCE's complete the video ensemble for those times I've nothing to watch.

I want a 4.2 V8 Jag XJ, preferably ex-government, with the fridge in the back & all the toys including memory & adjustable rearseats, electrically adjustable pedals, touch screen media centre and V8 smoothness.

Josh will you take 1 x 2.2 LPG Omega & 3.2 Elite
Mercedes were doing all this in 1991

Sure the Jag looks the part, but credit where it's due...

It's called the 600SEL, has four individual nappa leather chairs with variable heating and 3 independently adjustable lumber zones on each seat, seat cushion length adjustable independently from seat rake and electric headrests. Not to mention electric memory reach/rake wheel adjustment and 3 electrically adjustable, self dipping rear view mirrors. Fridge cost 10 litres of tank capacity but was big enough for a bottle of bubbly and some canapes. Actual double glazing, the door windows are nearly a centimeter thick. The only thing that it dips out on is the touch screen infotainment, which hadn't been invented then. It does have a 10disc cd changer and bose.

All available now for about the same price as a very tidy Omega

P.S. did I mention the super smooth 6 litre V12?
