    Morning,

    Managed to crash my car on my way back to Notts last night. No serious injuries but looks like a couple of write offs so today is being spent skiving work and dealing with insurance.

    As the person I collided with was on 2 wheels I was a tad busy making sure they were alive so didn't think to get pictures.

    Depends, if it was indeed a communter Ste has run over, and not (as I suspect) a motorcyclist, he should clearly have reversed and finished the job*. They don't pay road tax, you know.
    Also, if it was a motorcyclist, hopefully it was kowalski, and you've broken all his fingers.

    That's not not the right thing to do - scrataches your paintwork. Anyhow someone send them a link, we haven't had any outraged communty types being humourless for a while.

    I'm off to eat and drink at one of the brother in-laws for the rest of the day. Thankfully it's the one I can actually stand talking to, though he's blotted his copy book by inviting one of the others who is the most boring tw@t on the planet. I'll amuse myself by chatting to his daughters who are quite fit (and over 16 so legit targets) :twisted:

    Afternoon Losers!

    Got a cold this morning, which is more annoying than anything else. Today is going to be spent do a lot of walking, maybe watch a film and then PS3 time. I was going to leave the house, but CBA in this wind!

    Later, I'm meeting up with old school friends for our annual beer and curry night. Always a good laugh, and I'm looking forward to it. Should sort the cold out too.

    Laters!

    EDIT: Yes, we need pictures of everything mentioned, squished communters and fit daughters (as long as they're legal!)

    Why am I thinking of pot, kettle & black? :wink: He is a failed computer programmer who now does gardening for a living. His big hobby and favourite talking point is the chickens he keeps in his back garden and he's told us he's bringing his clarinet along to give us a demo. Tw@t.

    Will see what I can do on daughter front without looking like the pervy uncle :P

    No commuter. Was a guy doing 30mph on a moped on a 70mph road, wearing black, in the dark, with a rear light that didn't appear to work. Only saw him when it was too late to get around him due to his (lack of) speed. When I saw the remains of his moped, I thought he was a gonner for sure.

    On a brighter note, my Nissan Micra courtesy car will be here on Monday.

    Hmmmmm, not sure that's a brighter note, unless you were driving a rickshaw before.

    I was merely implying how fortunate it is that the biggest concern is having to drive a shit car.

    I just hope it isn't bright purple

    Evening bumders, having women troubles. Still, tonight is lots of beer tonight with the cousin while we discuss his wedding stuff, hopefully with as little of the wedding stuff and as much of the beer as possible.

    Sorry, no one was taking pics so could not get my exclusive pap shots of the foxy sisters without being found out :( But I did get plenty of free food and drink so I count that as a win :)
