:o You can just imagine the sense of panic on the bridge of the ship  :o
Even worse on the actual bridge.

Big difference between weathered and green slime. Out patios are York stone and now look like the year they were laid.
Bloody southerners, coming up here, pinching our stone.
Bloody Northerners coming down here and nicking our women... :P
Of course, how could they resist?  ;D

I read earlier that there were two pilots on board. Seems to have been some kind of equipment failure, it will all come out in the wash.

General Car Chat / Re: Insurance renewal .

There are certain insurance companies that are refusing to insure anyone over 70 now. Or quoting such a ridiculously high price that they know won't be accepted.

Seeing Mick's post prompted me to ring LV. I managed to get £60 off my renewal and £50 off the wife's. £110 for a ten minute call is ok, but both policies together still come in at around £1000  :(

Pressure washing the paths and patio is a quite satisfying job.  :y

But then you get the water bill!  :o  Which is why I only do it every other year.  ::)  ;D
Makes no difference if you don't have a water meter  :y

Yep, nice looking car.

It will be interesting to see how you get on with it over time.

What headlights do you have? I am unimpressed withmy bi xenons. I guess LEDs are the go to now.


 It's got Bi-xenons that go round corners for some reason, How I've managed all these years going round corners I don't know..

The DS had them in the 70s  ;)


 The French connection,, Being as Vauxhall is now part of PSA,,
Stellantis, actually  :y

Coming home from our Carribbean cruise 😁
Hope you enjoyed it, Mick.

Put the spare doors inside the car and there's £500 worth of scrap there. They'll be gone as soon as the scrap man can fit you in.

Wizz Air  :( :(
My lad landed in Manchester from Houston yesterday morning, Singapore Airlines out and back, not a hitch. Quick nights kip and 0930 flight from Leeds Bradford to Romania this morning. Up at 0430, knackered, and two coaches from Sheffield to LBA. Flight overbooked, they were bumped. After much conversation and form filling, it was agreed that Wizz Air would book them on a flight from Luton tomorrow morning, put them in a taxi down there and book them a hotel tonight.
This was at 0930 this morning, they're still at Leeds  >:(
Wizz Air finally came through. Taxi to Luton, hotel, evening meal and breakfast. So far, the Luton departure is only showing as 20 mins late. We'll see.

General Car Chat / Re: Tesco pay at pump
« on: 22 March 2024, 20:03:10 »
Pay in Kiosk, Pay at Pump, this all sounds very complicated. In our neighbouring village garage we still have a man/woman that comes out and fills up for you. Their fuel is always cheaper than anywhere else as well.
How old school is that.  :y

Do they sell 2 and 3 star fuel and Paraffin :D ;D as well

They do sell paraffin, but no 2 or 3 star.  ;D :y  Also, no two stroke mix shot pump anymore,  ;D
just modern pumps with the polite personal service and a friendly chat. Quite cute really, and nostalgic for those of us that remember the forecourt staff.  :y
That sounds lovely to this silly old fool  :'(
