royaloak Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 The Police will decide the blame so don’t fall into the media trap of deciding first. And you think a Police Officer (or whoever makes these decision) is going to decide the Husband of the Queen should be charged do you? It would never happen, but if it did I am sure he (and the paperwork) would 'disappear' rather quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium The White Rabbit Posted January 20, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 20, 2019 When I worked in retail, I used a model/casting of the Coyote (Wile E) looking forlorn and holding his sign saying "help" as a cash payment paperweight. If I say I like those on the left but don't much care for the one in blue on the right, will Mr. Y get cross with me for making a political statement? Maybe I'm getting a grumpy old man but these days I am increasingly attracted to whimsical themes, I've sketched out an idea for Ivor, partway through one for the Magic Roundabout. Now all I need is time to build them! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium newbryford Posted January 20, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 20, 2019 Something that made me today. A backseat passenger in a Daihatsu Copen...... They didn't look too comfortable. Cheers, Mick 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I take it the little red critter is from Magic Roundabout? Somehow I managed to miss him all those years ago!

Cheers, Mick Well mick, you know me, you know how big/round I am and we used to have a copen!

PatB Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 One of the nice thing about the Triumph Spitfire was that it was possible (without the roof on) for a largish individual to squeeze in behind the seats, sitting sideways, and not be excruciatingly uncomfortable or encroach on space for the driver or front passenger. The rear suspension sagged a bit but with the swing-axles that wasn't necessarily a bad thing . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raymw Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 One of the nice thing about the Triumph Spitfire Lots of nice things about them - had one for 8 1/2 years. I made a sort of raised hardtop so that someone could fit in the back with roof. Had to get rid of it, sad days, when our son got too big for the carry-cot, which would fit nicely behind the seats. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Popular Post big jim Posted January 21, 2019 RMweb Gold Popular Post Share Posted January 21, 2019 Odin update: I think he’s going to be an absolute bruiser when he’s fully grown, got him some toys at the weekend and he’s loving them, the little stuffed mice he grabs and kicks hell out of them with his hind legs, good at prowling too, you will walk in a room and he’ll dive at you from behind something with no mercy! He had also mastered the stairs so now sleeps in the bed when he feels like by, he also has a new cat house, climbing tower which he enjoys Doesn’t seem like the same cat as a couple of weeks back! Also mastered the litter tray now too, no accidents anywhere 22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shortliner Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 (edited) Seen on FB - be warned - this is dreadful! Finding a woman sobbing that she had locked her keys in her car, a passing soldier assures her that he can help. She looks on amazed as he removes his trousers, ..... Rolls them into a tight ball and rubs them against the car door. Magically it opens....... "That's so clever," the woman gasps. "How did you do it?" "Easy," replies the man. "These are my khakis".
