Mine lives in my cold, damp shed. You really shouldn't keep electrical goods in those conditions  ;D


I lost a Mig welder that way. Made a lovely bang when I plugged it in.

It's OK, it only gets used when his neighbour borrows it!  ;D

There are better things to lick.

Just make sure her ankles are round her ears for best access.

Hello Entwood do you need to disconnect the battery whist on a controlled charger? As far as recovery stories I once had a battery problem which I thought was due to a failed alternator.The recovery man said no the alternator was ok. Next day battery dead again after battery charged Different recovery man, same company, said alternator failed.Towed me to a garage who stripped the alternator out only to say that they could not get a replacement.Then towed home.Home around midnight, what an end to our holiday

I'm not Entwood, but the answer is no. A good charger will come with(it's also available separately) a hard wire kit that you fit to the battery, and route the plug to somewhere convenient. Then you park the car, and leave the charger connected until the next time you use the car.


When I did recoveries, I regularly saw a customer nearby who had a V8 ML as  a toy. As he kept the car in a garage at the end of his drive, and parked it nose in, starting it was a nuisance. After the third or fourth jump start, I recommended a smart charger. About a year later, I moved his wife's car, and got a £20 tip, because the Merc was now usable whenever he wanted.

Oh dear God....  ::)

I knew a lad many years ago who got some sort of horrible bacterial infection on his tongue after doing that to a girl he'd just pulled when he was pissed!  :P

Like a crop of microscopic mushrooms it was!  :o  ;D

Some taste really nice. Others set off the gag reflex. Impossible to know which is which until it's too late.

Most girls pay attention to 'down below' but some don't. :-X

You have to be a little selective...
