      Bluebottle: What's the time Eccles?

       

      Eccles: Just a minute, I've got it written down on a piece

      of paper. A nice man wrote it down for me. If anyone

      asks me the time, I show it to them.

       

      Bluebottle: Let me see that paper. It is writted here that

      it is 8 o'clock. What happens if they ask you and it's

      not 8 o'clock?

       

      Eccles: Then I don't show them the piece of paper.

       

      Bluebottle: But how do you know if it...

      the scrapage sceam was a poor idea, as your said all those decent, perfectly usable cars were scrapped just so people can have new cars... i tried it once at a vauxhall dealership, they said the car had to have MOT, Tax, be in good working order, i thought, well why scrap it then? whats the point of paying all that money for something that does exactly the same as my "older" model.

      anyway back to trawling all the trade sites....lol.

    3. Horsetan

      How about a nice old classic car?

    4. Jack00

      Jack00

  22. Bacon and mushroom on toast! With a nice milky brew. Just another Saturday routine before chores, can I do some work on the layout today please? :)

  23. Drove past an elderly lady today, she was lay on the ground next to a set of traffic lights. I swung the car around and ran to her aid, she had fell and twisted her ankle. I made sure she was ok offered to call 999 but she insisted on minimum fuss. I even offered her a lift home but she declined. I hope she is ok. I made sure she could get up ok, and put wieght on both legs she appeared to be able to walk. Wish I could have helped more but she was rather embarraced bless her heart.
