    The weather is absolutely lawless here - it’s not a White Christmas, it’s a full on Siberian Edition Bear Grylls Extreme Survival Bastard Christmas!!

    Fair dues @dodgy - I seriously wish that’s where we would be at over here. It’s brutal here and there’s quite a lot of snow around and an Extreme Cold Warning from Environment Canada (as if we didn’t feckin know already) 983D8E50-CEB6-4BA7-B18E-E0C0802ABC82.png 98776EC2-78CF-47F1-A678-47A270C8D61F.jpeg

    I don’t know if there’s a coat big enough for this shite Brother.

    Negative on the dogs but honestly not many are out in this hell

    On the way back from my sons house in the week I did a quick stop at a scrapyard I've passed on the trips down early in the mornings.
    I'll admit it was an odd visit, but the owner told me to look around at his sheds of stuff, said it was all for sale, but when questioned as to prices seemed mire like he didn't want to get rid of anything and just said his price would be 'more than I would pay'
    Anyway, he had a mk3 golf non gti, rover 220 coupe, 2 Bay window buses, 2 old mercs and a few other oddities, but he also had a load of old curiosity items around, here's a few pics including a washing machine and a Tomy Armstrong ride on robot. 20211229_133018.jpg 20211229_133504.jpg 20211229_133316.jpg 20211229_134137.jpg 20211229_133138.jpg
    Not an amg/cossie I'm afraid, just kitted.

    That merc looks good ! I find myself oddly drawn upon the s500 Sel and engine…few for sale in Romania but at the right, inflated price !

    On another topic - have any of you checked out the story about the ‘influencers’ who were on that plane from Montreal to Cancun and the absolute f&&kery that went on in that flight?

    If anything ever typified the current generation then this is most certainly it - couldn’t or wouldn’t help themselves and of course just had to post their behaviour online and mercifully it all went a bit ‘Pete Tong’.

    Some 19 year old that was on the flight now all upset that airlines are refusing to fly them back to Canada, facing big fines and it’s and I quote “not fair” - narcissism at it’s finest.

    Public flogging needs to be reintroduced-pronto!

    If you consider "influencer" as a career title, you should be flogged, as a matter of course.
