I might have replyed with her stats, but not going to bother now.

But allthough not a GG I have allways said personallity is more important than Bra Size and if she had only been blessed with an A cup then so be it.

But she can cook, clean, and do all the usual stuff that a lot of "Todays women" cant cope with, she loves baking, used to make event cakes for a living.  Loves repairing cars and is enjoying being taught have to build and repair computers.  The list gets better the more I get to know her.

She's one in million opti and has become very special to me, so will be a very happy new year for me this time round. ::)

I drive my Miggy quite a bit on snow and have found that TC is more-often better disabled when driving just in snow (but not when on ice)....inertia is helpful to keep the car from 'bogging' into the snow; the TC seems to take all the much-needed inertia out of the car, just when it`s most useful, especially when going uphill at slow/medium speeds. ;)

I liken it to driving in soft sand, all the text-books say: "slowly-slowly, catchy monkey"....but in reality it`s better to "go-go-go!" ;)

With you all the way there Skruntie -- much to be said for an A cup on the right woman  :)

Hope it continues getting better for the both of you  :y

No snow here yet, but like most others, bitterly cold. Pleased for you Mr. Skrunts.
Was just wondering, heavy snowfall, roads impassable, how does the snowplough driver get to work ??  :-/

Under-steer is when the front of the car hits the wall, and over-steer is when the rear of the car hits the wall.
Power is how fast you hit the wall and torque is how much of the wall you take with you.

Had it up here for the last two days.

Made my morning pretty miserable, took 2 hours to 'travel' 1 mile.



Wasn't even that much snow!
