    Random drunk phone call from a friend I haven't spoken to in 6 months, he'd found my female doppelgänger at a party. Several minutes later a selfie followed, him and her, and it's like me with long hair…

      I an't help wondering is she appreciated the compliment/chat up line "You look like a guy I know"...

    Writing an english speech and learning french paragraphs is one of the most tedious ways to spend a Saturday.

    is looking at Citroen SMs, but thinks it's a bit of a hack to send a car to Australia to be converted to RHD :-(

      Nah, sorry, as much as I like big Citroens, its got to be a DS! Or an XM (for comfort, not looks!), or how about an H-van? Now THEY are nice!

    has succeeded in paying his tax bill, the bill that HMRC forgot to send him. Tax doesn't have to be taxing, they said. We'll send you the SA300, they said (in November last). It's easy to pay, they said. Yes, well, if you don't send me the bloody bill, how can I give you my hard-earned #taxrant

      Did they calculate it using the 3% Google formula?

    Just found out the exercise bike I bought 2 years ago and hardly used doesn't work any more...oh dear, how sad, never mind...

    Counting his losses... currently 2x class 153, 3x class 156, Bachmann RTC 47, Lima Dyna-Drive 66, some wagons, 3-car Northern 158 with repainted centre car, a LoadHaul class 122, all currently underwater... Will any survive to run another day? At least most of my stock is safe and dry.

    1. JDW

      JDW

      I hope they'll dry out, the decoders can be replaced, and hopefully the motor can be replaced in the Dyna-Drive one, that would be a big shame to lose, most of the rest can be replaced, and at least it was only our holiday home, the main layout is safe! Thanks for the kind comments though :-)

    On a Hull Trains 180 for the very first time, running down to Donny from Paragon. Never thought I'd be wishing for a Voyager, jeez....

    Welp, looks like the Merc is going nowhere soon. Can't remove the injectors and broke one of the plastic fiitings on the fuel return system. Fun times!

    Accidently sent an "I'm gay" life event message to everybody he knows on Fiends Reunited. My wife was NOT amused with me, what was even more surprising was the person who replied "so am I".

      Another vote for Bienvenue Chez Les Ch'tis, and I'll add Auberge Espagnol to the list too, as well as the 2014 film Qu'est-ce qu'on a fait au Bon Dieu.
