woohoo just done 42 miles in the sunshine *thumbup*

 

Although wet roads with lots of slippery leaves *eek* and quite a bit of traffic kept the average speed well down but I still had a great time *cool*.

 

And the best bit - I am parked in my favourite space in the car park, right next to the bike sheds *thumbup* *thumbup* *thumbup* *thumbup*

Just done 100 miles in the Volvo, wishing I was in the se7en ☹️

 

I have office parking at work, unfortunately it`s on one side of the peace line in Belfast. Although its been quiet recently I don`t like parking any car here and in fact I usually park the Volvo on the street. Being Halloween ther is always the prospect of a firework being lobbed over the wall.

 

If its nice tomorrow or Sunday I think I`ll hit the coast road for a blat!

how do you make the caterham go Clunk at the end?

You haven't installed some big heavy german doors that go 'thunk' with a reasuringly expensive noise when you close them have you?

 

and the start normaly reads for me:

 

Twinkle, shimmer

fumblefumble getting keys in

click-clunk

click-clunk

click-clunk (4 point done up)

poppccrrhh... (closing side door).

silence

silence (with finger jabbing big red button).

BBBUGGGGRRRIIITT

ker-clunk

rustle

snick... turn (as you put battery isolator back in.)

rustle, rusle.

click-clunk

click-clunk

click-clunk (4 point done up)

poppccrrhh... (closing side door).

 

ChikkachikkavrrROOOMMmmm

 

Brrrmm Brmmm Brrmmm Brrmm.

Thats more or less how I persuaded Sharon to let me take mine in. It works for the kids so why not for me *confused* *cool*

 

[foot in mouth mode]I forgot, you still dont have one do you ? *thumbdown* ☹️ Chin up old boy, keep trying. You just have to decide what kind of a boy you want to be

Ahh, Rhubarb, you spotted the fatal flaw... I'm in the same boat as Boonie, you see - no Seven ☹️. Well, only one small enough to fit on my monitor (see earlier post on this thread). And Boonie and I not in the same boat exactly ... in fact, Boonie probably isn't in a boat at all *confused* - what I mean is, I was in my relatively lardy, oh-so-slightly tardy Fiat Barchetta, which is a kind of boat, you see... wibble, gibber, wibble...

 

😳 nothing...

*cool* *thumbup* Thanks, Nick. The Barchetta may not be a Seven but I'm having fun and I'm chuffed to bits with it. And I've hardly had the hood up since I bought the car 5 months ago 😬.

 

Hmmm. Just had a look at that expression "chuffed to bits". What does that mean *confused* *eek* It sounds a just a little bit dodgy. Scary, in fact.

 

😳 nothing...
