Omega General Help / Re: NCDC2013 a question for the boffins
« on: 23 February 2024, 21:02:12 »Tell him I said to Fk 0f£.
He would claim he has already met you ,given you a well deserved hiding, and your petrified of him.
Were talking full Walter Mitty syndrome here.

Pretty sure the faceplate has never been off mine. Which is why Im reluctant to take it out and try and fix its various issues.
A bloke a mile from me has recently acquired a Tech2 for his Saab, but not sure if he has the correct bits (cards? ) to interrogate my car or its headunit.
Not sure I trust his abilities either, as he is a world class bullshit merchant.
For example. He swears blind he can travel the 12 miles (almost all single carriageway, mostly 30 limit roads) from his house to the nearest hospital, in an Astravan, in 7 minutes.
An average speed of over 100mph. I quote "your looking at one of the quickest drivers around". Fickin tawt.

Even by Corrie standards his character was extremely annoying.

Insurance fo the C1 was £145 last year. Renewal came through at £180.
An hour on comparison sites got it down to £133.
It will be interesting to see what the renewal for the Boxster is in a few weeks.

I have also never set foot in a Catholic Church. If I ever did, I suspect my old Dad would strike me down from wherever he is in the afterlife.
He actually believed the Pope (any of them) was the Antichrist.
I dont drive a Citroen. I drive a Toyota with the Wrong badges on it.
French beer when I can have Guinness at home. Behave yourself.
Went to the London Olympics (twice) under protest and have no desire to repeat the experience.

Same story for my 24v Sennie. Lovely car in every respect, but it got eaten alive around the rear end until it had to be scrapped.

Ive never seen the point in funerals. My family have been instructed not to bother with one when I fall off my perch.
Send the carcass to be burnt, and if they want to they can have the shes returned to scatter them somewhere, although I dont really see the point in that either.
All silly, pointless and expensive tradition imo.

About 6 years ago I did 13 night shifts in row. Had 3 days off then did another 5.
Nearly bloody killed me.
