Special offer!! 2 barrels of SA gold coming this weekend!
Thought I'd pop in for a swift half of mild to celebrate my birthday and my 3000th post.
Happy Birthday. I'm not sure what's more alarming: half of mild on your birthday, or you piddling 3,000 posts
Poacher turned game-keeper

Mild...??
I've come to the end of my tether with the makers of the 'new Mini', and i shall now vent my frustration in the comfortable surroundings of the Master's Lounge. It's to do with the use of John Cooper CBE's name on some of the most bloated and gaudy reincarnations of Alec Issigonis' wonderful little machine yet seen. They're really scraping the barrel with new models; not only are they departing from the original design principals, they are now whoring hallowed badges steeped in pedigree and plonking them on just about any old rubbish. Today i was behind something so vast you could have hidden half the QE2 behind it, and lo, it was badged as a 'John Cooper Works' Mini. It's so unprincipled it makes me sick; likewise whoever came up with the idea of the Nissan Juke Nismo needs shoving in a barrel and rolling off Niagra Falls.
The omnipresent chrome strip around the base of the Mini's windows ruins some otherwise nice looking cars. But yes, some are gross in both meanings of the word.
Depends, what are they like to own?
My hairdresser crisis wagon for example is do much fun I don't care how much of a twonk I look. Which is a good thing, as I could win the 2016 World Gurning championships with my smile.
Mind you, after 4 trips to the dentist in 4 weeks my smile has improved lately.
Totally with you Mr B. Shameful.
Of course, it wont be long before Fiat plonks an Abarth badge on the fat 500. What a gross race we are becoming.
Why not salve your pain with a nice slim tasty bit of Italian motorcycle.
I just bought this:
