Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

I was going out with this bird about 3 or 4 months back, One day she says to me, "Did you know that a person, has enough bones in their body,To make up the human skeleton?" That was when I realised I had enough... :pac:
If you heard half the **** my GF comes out with you'd run a mile.
One of my favourites was "Turtles have blood? I NEVER KNEW THAT?!".
What's worse is she's not an idiot, she demolished her honours degree and she's very sharp, just hasn't a notion when it comes to general knowledge... Or that animals have blood.

well i first time sow her when i was 14, she was 17. i felt in love right there and i knew i want only her! only when i was 18 and finally got my first car, i took her to a drag race event outside of town. It was official drag racing, where you could pay money and go for a race with who ever you want. so that day was the first time we kissed, hold hands... and then we went on drag strip. my 89' mazda 626 coupe 66kw vs her mazda 626 coupe gtx 85kw. she beat my ass on drag strip that day too!
8 years in and i still love her as much as i did when i was 14
*sorry for that lads, its still motor related!

What's a nice drive Dublin/Wicklow? Might just head up the sally gap direction.
Maybe the only two good days of the summer.
Just get into your car and drive where the road takes you, Best way.

Coastal drive FTW! Although on my many trips clay shooting, I went to this place called Carrig Glen, near Newtownmountkennedy... (I hope I got that right) lovely countryside
I'm doing the opposite, sitting in a car in my garden, Nova on the radio, catching rays, sipping an ice cold beer, havin a yap with my friend. Changed a steady mount on my 406 earlier, relaxin now! Don't need to drive anywhere (for once) so my van is sitting in the shade and if I need anywhere to go, ladyfriend at the ready Perfection :cool:
It would be criminal to spend this day any other way! 0 -

My dads targa top has been sitting in the garage for the last 23 years, someday it will be fully restored... Only open top weve had around the house! Fiat X1/9 if anyone is wondering0 -
When I drive a shiet box I don't want to drive anywhere
. When I drove nice stuff, I would get a stupidest excuse just to have a spin atleast few miles....
"we are all out of yogurts?!?!?!"
"yup, it's okay I'll get them tomorrow after work"
"FFS it's always like this, now I got to go to shop and buy them, I can't wait for tomorrow! Getting sick of this shiet!!!!"*runs in to the car, like a child runs to a Xmas tree in the Xmas morning!0 -

You're letting it dry in the sun?
Is that a bad thing?! :eek:MetzgerMeister wrote: »Hope you're not in a hard water area, you'll end up with lime marks all over it
Don't think Tallaght's too bad for hard water.
Don't notice much of a build up on the kettle, etc.. anyway.
From the window it's looking grand. 0 -

Didn't think of using a cloth because it was 90% there anyway with the way the sun was shining, couldn't drive it far because it's not insured. I did have a cheeky one to the end of the road and back when I was turning it though.Depends if you like running the chance of streaks really. Get a drying towel.
It's well dry now, fingers crossed it isn't streaky! :eek:0 -

Grrrrr, grrrrr and grrrrrrr :mad:
Was going to look at a Saab 9-5 Hot Aero tomorrow morning, traveling from Galway to Dublin, train booked and paid for, and Cartell history check done and paid for.
Just got a text from the seller (sound guy to deal with btw) saying the engine light came on after it was filled with petrol.
Not going to risk it.
€50 wasted, but on the plus side, I found out before I travelled, and potentially a lot of money saved. Bitter sweet though 0 -
