Nice ... did they have more than one teaspoon? Most building sites have a major spoon shortage.
Good idea. I'm off to make one myself. There may be some chocolate biscuits - better go now before the tension gets to me. |

well when i got my car i washed it every other day because i live in the middle of nowhere the roads are allways crappy.
Last time it was washed was New years eve. One thing i have noticed though is how incredably easy my car is to wash after having that 'special £350 seal and protect' ( how much !!!!! ) well it has been worth every penny so far , i hope it lasts I thought about it and since i dont drive on clean roads and having to compete with tractors and things coupled with the fact i have the incredably easy to mentain Saphire Black i thought it was worth it !

I make time mate, i cant stand it being dirty... in thisd weather will all the filthy cars, even a new clean fiesta can look good. NOW IMAGINE, how good a E92 lokoks when clean when every other fucker is in a dirty car..
it aint as if i dont do many miles, ive done more miles than anyone on here by far and still she is always clean. I just make time, even if it cuts into something else. Takes a good hour to do properly, need to do the inside now tho. Carlos

Believe it or not Calvin, I actually meant no reference to his 'self relief'. You're not going to believe me, I know
