    Still don't get why they had to call the police. I told them I was an important member of the CUK forum, we're all rich contractors ... they suggested I go to the BMW showroom next door as that's what really important classy contractors drive, don't ya know

    Your posts would suggest otherwise. Trying to put people down, because you're jealous, is a way to try to big yourself up and is you compensating for your own inadequacies. Pretty sad really.

    Not miserable at the moment thanks. Have had some pretty dark moments after Rachel died, but sorted my head out and I'm in a really good place now. You'll see most, if not all, my posts are positive - no whining like some on here. Yes I take the P out of Vetty but in (mostly) good humour, but I don't whine and self pity at how the world hasn't given me what I deserve.

    But you crack on fella, I've gone through the worst 18 months and come out the other end pretty good. Nothing some random sad stranger can say to me on a faceless forum is going to upset me But feel free to keep trying if that makes you happy

    Leave the lady out of this, apart from wondering at her poor relationship choices and why she is settling so far down the looks scale she is off limits.

    I suspect they popped into the Showroom and took a picture.

    That is cool with an E-Type, Ferrari or Aston but next to a hairdressers conveyance it looks a little sad I agree.

    An M5 .... are you kidding? Firstly, I wouldn't touch a BMW with a bargepole. And secondly, I wanted a 2 seater so the only one I'd vaguely consider is the Z4 and it's nasty compared to the Audi.

    But hey, you want to drive an M5 you crack on fella but not for me.

    I did consider the Toyota Supra but the TTRS was just so lush that it was a no brainer.

    Love the jealousy on this thread now. You guys crack me up. There are a lot of inadequate blokes on here ......

    Of course you'll claim you're not jealous, your wife is such a beaut, you're considerably richer than the rest of us, and so-so successful .... whilst discussing mortgages and the state of the market as you need to work to pay the bills.

    As you were

    Oh, and it wasn't a brag .... it was a response to the fat one from Slough who suggested I needed rest my right hand and read Razzle less. Just pointing out that not all of us need 'self love'.

    Wrong ... you owe me a tenner.

    Everyone knows who I am, some have even been lucky enough to meet me. Most have even seen my brief tv appearance. Do try to keep up.
