I think the ferry ports are like our railways, though. The only acceptable system is a Victorian one.

Is it unreasonable to expect your neighbouring country to operate it's border posts efficiently?
Personally I think that's the best looking BMW ever produced, an old neighbour of mine had one always admired it.
Yep, it's not often I like a BMW, but those, the 2002 and the old CSL are absolutely lovely.
Yes, but rust and head gasket issues killed most of them over 30 years ago.

Ahh, yes. A friend's dad ran a garden centre, so that came in handy.So are we expecting fertiliser and sugar sales to rocket given the 'new' not liked agreement?My misspent yoof. Mr Fothergills and haircare products, scaffold tubes and empty coke cans. Usually with the RAF MP is close pursuit
Industrial fertiliser (as the stuff from Wilkos had an antioxidant in it so only went off like a rocket and lacked the 'boom'), icing sugar and a bit of meths, mix appropriate proportions to a thick paste, slop onto item you wish to educate, cable tie a crushed coke can (or other beverage container e.g. Trent bitter) over the top, insert a cut elastic band, light, and scarper like hell
But Ford will be trying to push junk on the back of a name that had a following, much like Vauxhall tried with the particularly crap Viva.
Can't imagine that it will be anything very exciting, if like you say it's comparable to the Mustang, I won't be rushing to view one.
Most Capris were about as exciting as the Cortinas that their engines and gearboxes came from.
A modern one would use the running gear from a Focus, in a coupeish body based on those measurements. VW tried this a few years ago with the Scirocco, and ended up with a car that was just a squashed Golf. Traditional long bonnets and short tails don't really suit FWD mechanicals!
The old original XJ had presence, class and style, even if the non sporty versions were a tad pipe & slippers. Still on my bucket list of cars to own.I think you are thinking of the X Type, which did heavily borrow from its (then) stablemate's parts bin
The more recent versions are just a Mondeo on steroids to me. May be very good cars, but I have zero interest in them .
Nope. Im thinking of the recent shaped Mondeo. Recent Jags appear to be a bloated version of that in my eyes.
The horizontal one? It comes from the white T by way of the rubber tube. What looks to be a spigot left of the OWV is actually one and the same line as the horizontal one.
I might watch MOTD just to see what they do tonight.It might be less tedious than usual
Certainly, it would be funny as fook watching Google Box next week if the MOTD ratings went Up without any presenters
What field's that? Oh, yes. Selling crisps.Just been listening to Matt LeTissier talking about Lineker on GB News.You don't get to the top in any field by being 'nice'.
He was careful to stay on the right side of the law, re being sued, but he said he knows for a fact that Lineker is nothing like the nice caring saintly like person he makes himself out to be. He has a lot of skeletons in his closet, and must have friends in high places who have helped him keep them there.
Oh how I would love to see the details of that exposed in the media.
