    Respect Stevo 👍

    I’m sure Pinno will be along shortly to congratulate you 😂

    Do you want blue then? I’ve a pair of supercaz alloy end plugs I have no need for. Yours if you want them, postage only.

    The MTB has end plugs that take bottle tops on them, so once they get scratched and bashed I have to drink more beer 🍻

    can you pull out the end plug to reveal a stealthy bottle opener inside the bars?

    So, the cat that shots everywhere was put down today. Sad to lose the cat, but such a relief not to clear up after it anymore.

    What's intriguing is why you look these things up.

    Anyhoo, given the Cake Stop brethren and their liking for Stevo, how many of those 'likes' are tongue in cheek?

    Everyone loves Stevo. Current score he will currently be happy, could do with Leicester helping us out.

    Crazy few days at work and home. work being work, and builders etc at home.

    New car bought, walked out called the finance company to settle gave me a number that didnt add up so have to chase that up. Not sure how they found £300 for 1 day of interest. Small print and the need for a person on the phone I suspect.

    Sorry to hear, sounds like it was probably a kind thing to do given it was ill.

    It really was time. The list of illnesses it had was almost as long as Man Vs goose thread.

    A5 sportback, maybe with some extra letters. the Date doesn't know what they mean.

    Was tempted by one of those last time I had a company car as it was available to me (we had a very limited list in each grade), but others were a little more practical in the end .

    Missed this earlier johngti. Happy to take them off your hands! Let me know postage amount and bank details via PM and I'll let you know address. Or vice versa. Thanks.

    @pinno it is, but why change from the title from the good days.
    @Stevo_666 shame but c'est la vie, made our life hard a long time ago.
    @elbowloh Sorry to hear about the animal, may be the best decision but still the hardest.

    On the car note, only myself and the wife along with a springer spaniel so don't need anything much bigger. (can still throw the bikes in the back or buy seasuckers)

    I reckon half of them are from his fan boy, Shortfall. It's quite funny how predictably you can see a like and guess who it's from.
    Nice car Flan, enjoy.
    Sorry about the cat Elbow, really did sound like it was time though.
