      Just treat your woman like you treat your kite........
      Faster, faster, faster, until the thrill of speed overcomes the fear of death.

      Patience is something you admire in the driver behind you and scorn in the one ahead.

          If I remember the quote it is:

          Get in her five times a day and take her to heaven and back.

          There may have been a "woof" also.

            control badly, smash nose first into the ground and then stuff in the bin wondering when to get a new one?

                Talking about cost of living...

                I've got the telly frozen on an advert for QuickQuid and it's showing

                Typical 2356% APR

                Yikes. If it's not a typo, that's real loan shark stuff.

                Nope. Not a typo, for it's repeated on the final screen.
                Behold the warranty -- the bold print giveth and the fine print taketh away.
