Things come in three's!!

I had been home from a job abroad when I got hit with 1. A new battery for my 75 CDT, 2. My home PC just stopped working. (Something went phut inside) 3. SWMBO gave me a list of 'jobs'. She has very small handwriting.

Think I'll go back to the sunshine

It's to much like hard work being back home!!!

I was talking to my old woman about the engine in the car and while she let me go on for about 30 mins she replied at the end saying "I don't care about the engine as long as it works" she don't understand me

Ha Ha No appreciation for fine engineering.

I had to give a client a lift today, she owns a TF160 Spectre. So I quite like her already. Driving along I noticed a Wolsley 1500 and remarked "oh my word a Wolseley 1500: her reply "you're a real bloke aren't you, any body asks me about my car and all I know is it's a nice colour"
Doh!

Girls, gotta love em

I will get into trouble here but I will only make her chain long enough to go from the kitchen to the bedroom Ha Ha

By comparison my wife owns a 2.2 CRD PT Cruiser and is in the PT Cruiser owners club the Northern Devils and knows quite a lot about her wheels.

AND THEY blerdy wave when they see a fellow owner

(unlike Rover owners...)

Twice today I have flashed 75 drivers to let them out in front of me, no thanks just the foot on the floor diesel drivers trying to prove that their cars are "ever so quick in comparison to a ZT" T***ers both of them.
I acknowledge all 75 drivers and wave at zt drivers. In 2 years I have had the occasional cursory nod from 75ers and one returned wave from a ZTer.

We have to start a national wave each other program.....trouble is we are only a small portion of drivers.

To a certain degree yes, but do you need to prove it every time you come near a ZT? I think not.
It seems there are lot of 75 drivers who feel somewhat inadequate.
I am not referring to any of our club members, all of whom seem to be very well balanced, and appreciate both cars as a touch of class in an otherwise drab vehicular world.
