Oh, mainly cars.
Forgot to start a thread on Monday so I can't start now but I currently have 4 screwdrivers, a turny thing and a stand.
A ciggie and tequila still sounds good though.

Mine. GS but with LS wheels.

I still have pictures of what might have been.

Wera advent calendar fun for all the family.

Possibly a reference to this? But it's a stretch. Car chase in You Only Live Twice.

Actually, he was a decent guy. Better man than my ex-uncle. He was an arse.
14yo me thought Nick was pretty cool. As well as the Trans-Am eagle on his old Rover we were never sure where he got his money from and he walked with a limp because he used to race sidecars. Clearly, a bit nuts = cool.

Car we've owned?
First gen XC90. Many, many family adventures when all 3 kids needed a child seat of some sort. Wading fords, travelling through deep snow, changing nappies on the split tailgate. Precious cargo was always safe as houses.
Bonus pic of a baboon shitting on the bonnet.

I put these on the RX when we got it. Only done about 1500 miles on them but seem ok. Coped well with a very wet and at times slushy trip over the moors to Whitby last weekend.

Straight back at it! 😉

This is a Public Information Film brought to you by DADS.

See also, the thermostat is wired to the mains so don't ever touch it.

Movies that take place where you're from.

A lovely day. Fossil hunting didn't go quite to plan but it didn't matter.
Weather extremes on the North Yorkshire Moors and then down to Runswick Bay near Whitby.
Then on to Whitby for fish and chips at The Magpie Café.
200+ mile round trip and the RX took it all in its stride.

Oh Alan. Don't be silly. It's just this. Can't be more than 5ft long. And a slightly awkward shape. Hand luggage surely?

I have one. Picked up cheap on eBay ages ago. No complaints. Treated it to a new belt and Audio Technica cartridge. Only thing I had to do to it was work the pitch adjustment with some contact cleaner and good as new.

Get. In.

Haven't bought any discs for an age. I still had unopened ones from the first time round. But if cassettes are anything to by then a lot I'd imagine.

I only dig the players out occasionally. A few years ago I had a car with an aftermarket MD head unit so they got much more use then.

I take it all back.
Snowmageddon in South Yorkshire.

Had one just like it.

The CR-Z popped up in conversation the other day and I mentioned my mate has one and he absolutely loves it.
November 10, 2025 at 8:42 PM
A friend of mine has one that's been lightly modified. Loves it.

Fresh ticket. No advisories 👌

And on the 8th November I'll have had it for 12 months. Maybe a birthday party is in order 🎂
