    New Car

    Picked up my new car from the factory last night.

    Was lovely. Brand spanking new, 6 miles on the clock.

    Felt very special driving it home.

    Now you realise what we have known all along - you are indeed 'special'
    Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

    I preferred version 1!

        The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

        But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

          A second hand car dealer once told me -

          "A man is not man with a ticket in his hand"

          he also said

          "It pulls like a train"

          I tried to take part (after watching TopGear) and said

          "It looks a bit underpowered"

          He gave me that 'you twat' type of look

          Nice one Dude - hope you get plenty of girls in it.

          And like they said on 'Grease' about their car 'grease lightning'

          "she's ain't getting in if she ain't puttin' out"

                Fool. May as well have chucked £2k down the drain. Buy a year old, hardly used, save some cash for drugs and ho's.

                  well done, and now it has 100 miles on the clock, its worth 2/3 of what is was when you picked it up. But then again it is rather nice picking up a new car, I did this with the Jag, but again you loose lots of money on it in the first few months, but if you intend to keep it for years does it matter??

                  Well you looked so stylish I thought you batted for the other camp - thats like the ultimate compliment!

                  I couldn't imagine you ever having a hair out of place!
