breakdown truck

Got something to say, but it's not classic related? Here's the place to discuss. Also includes the once ever-so-popular word association thread... (although we've had to start from scratch with it - sorry!)

Honestly Rich, if you want it, go and get it.
She will forgive you for spending £500 on a car. It's not mega money and you have to have a hobby. it's cheaper than an affair.

I'll send you a bunch of grapes and a get well card.
If that is the reaction, you need to find a lass that understands "car guys".

wifey knows i have a weakness for old cars.. when we met i had 26 cars in various states of repair/decay... wifey & my mother ganged up & they all seemed to vanish. she does have a love for old cars but is my sensible side by stopping me from buying anything shiny :oops: she has a knack for pointing out we need to pay bills & buy food which is nowhere near as much fun as scraping rust off the floor from my latest aquisition.. :lol:
