  1. If I was to be boringly picky I don't like those spotlights. Plus Alfa Romeo aren't really known for reliabiliy.
  2. OMG - we are two of a kind with losing tickets I realised I had lost one when I got all the way to the bloody ticket machine to pay for it. Had had a couple of bevvies the night before so wasn't in full focus. I re-traced my footsteps and low and behold I found it in the middle of the outside shopping centre. The second was when I paid for the thing, got all the way to the ticket station, and then realised that the slot that I put the ticket in (in the car) was deeper than I thought !! So I couldn't get the ticket without removing the dash, but luckily enough the ticket attendant bloke thing must have had a good day and let me go without me having to pay any extra. I know what you mean about the height of the kerbs as well. They are HUGE in the Galleries - especially on the upper floors. What is the point in that ?? This thread is becoming a bit of a "confessions to kerbing" :D
  3. That's one thing I seem to find happens to me if I don't clean my car every week. If I was to leave it one week, I would find a ding or a scratch when I clean it the next week. Straaaange ! I was out their on Saturday afternoon with an unfortunately different colour silver touch-up brush just to coat the scrape. I'll just keep building on it until it's nice and flush and then find out if I can spray it with the same silver the bloke used last year when I had the wheels refurbished. At the moment it looks like a part of the rim has been filled in. Hey, I've got a private lock-up/warehouse to park in on Welsh Back! So...no Galleries for me! (Though I does get blocked in by illiterate folk at night on occasion, who can't read the giant '24 hours in use' sign on the door! (Now got a nice big 'Mike Brewer' white marker pen for the next car wot duz THAT to me!) And next time you're in the Galleries, well that wonderful 'Royce Rolls Wholefood Cafe' in St Nicholas Market is only 5 mins away! (Blush....its mine, though being semi-retired, I'm rarely there!) I just got MY wheels resprayed by DMD wheels in Bristol (07818 228519), so....I'm certain to kerb them any second now! Hey Chris, what do you think of your wheels after DMD done them ? PS. Where's your private lock-up. I'll use it next time I have to pop into town !! :winky:

  5. It had to bloody happen ! I was driving out of the Galleries car park in Bristol on Saturday. Some morons had parked their cars at the bottom of the ramp (before the two gates where you put your ticket in), so I decided to take the gate nearest the corner. Let me explain for all those non-Galleries car park users. When you reach the bottom of the ramp, you hit a blind corner which bears to your left. This takes you to the two gates to put your ticket into and drive off. Okay, where was I....oh yeah, so I decided to take the nearest gate past the blind corner. Nope - someone is parked in there with their hazards flashing. So, I sticks the car in reverse to back up and take the other exit barrier. I could only reverse back a tiny bit cuz somebody is now in my rear view. So I then have to try and squeeze the car between the other morons who had parked their cars and the island that the barrier sits on. The car then gets a slight nudge from the back passenger side. Anyway, I didn't HEAR anything so I just presume it was the tyre that got the nudge and drive off. Nope.....you guessed it I kerbed the bloody wheel. Ah well, worst things happen at sea. But what a d!ck - I've never done this before. My temperature went quite high at the time. But when you hear the tragic stories on here about people who have been in accidents and stuff, it is just a really minute little thing at the end of the day. :winky: Better now that's off my chest !!
  6. I do a number one (haircut !) every Saturday morning. Buy yourself a set of clippers - try a number two. If you don't like it, move the clippers to a one. If you don't like that - buy a pritt stick and stick it all back on.
  7. Oooooh.....I'm just waiting for all the responses from the girls !! Doesn't it clog your bath up with carpet fibres ?
  8. .... a lad a work doesn't get it :duh: muppet. Told him to turn the screen upside down OMG - stick him in the corner with the "D" cap :winky:
  9. A mother and father take their 6-year-old son to a nude beach. As the boy walks along the sand, he notices that many of the women have boobs bigger than his mother's so he goes back to ask her why that is so. She tells her son, "The bigger they are, the sillier the lady is." The boy, pleased with the answer, goes to play in the ocean but returns to tell his mother that many of the men have larger ''things'' than his dad does. She replies, "The bigger the 'thing' is, the dumber the man is." Again satisfied with her answer, the boy goes back to the ocean to play some more. Shortly thereafter, the boy returns again, and promptly tells his mother, "Daddy is talking to the silliest lady on the beach and the longer he talks, the dumber he gets."
  10. A businessman boards a flight and is seated next to a gorgeous woman. He notices that she is reading a manual about sexual statistics. He asks her about it and she replies, "This is a very interesting book. It says that American Indians have the longest penises and Greek men are the best in bed. By the way, my name is Jill. What's yours?" The man replies, "Tonto Papadopolos, nice to meet you."
  11. That's clever - I didn't realise until the end. I think my screens broked now though since tipping it upside down !!
  12. What kinda surfaces do you step out onto ? Sounds like a silly question, but if you were to say step out onto muddy surfaces regularly it could be worth getting the carpets Scotchguarded. But if you usually just step out onto concrete I wouldn't bother - I'd just give them a regular vacuum, and if they DO get dirty steam clean them or use a carpet foam/spray.
  13. Wayhey !! Nice one bud. Congratulations :winky:
  14. Hahahaha Spot on, you cheeky .......
  15. Oh crap !! Sorry to hear about that - why can't they reverse into crappy cars ?? Can't help you on the price, but I'm sure some clever clogs will be along :winky:
  16. Niraj, was always the first ............. joke poster ! :D Where's that icon that shows me sulking !! :( :P
  17. Dood - you're stealing my limelight !!
  18. Someone down our gym got / had one of them (I ain't seen it for a while) - it looks f**king awsome !! I wondered what the f**k it was for a while, until I seen them going mental in it on Top Gear.
  19. This really is the best way - not sure on the hoover part though (might cause scratches ?). You really shouldn't clean an airbag surface as it's already thinner than the rest of the dash.
  20. What about the one who comes along and posts a single smiley face, knowing it's totally against the T&C's, hehehehe Is it ?? Seriously ?? Yup sure is :D Woah - show's you who read the T&C's and who didn't Hey, have you noticed how this thread is turning into the exact points that were made at the beginning ?!?
  21. Sure it's coming from the car, and not the booth ?
  22. What about the one who comes along and posts a single smiley face, knowing it's totally against the T&C's, hehehehe Is it ?? Seriously ??
