OK I'll admit to one, a trolley for my welder
Not a major infringement of my bankers financial policy but I still got "why did you buy that", "I am getting tired of carrying my welder and gas bottle to work on the RR, so thought this would help to get the job done quicker" It's not worked but I got away with it. More worryingly is that I am watching this.... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/324344794763 The plan is to also buy a garage from Machinemart to fix to it so she could park her MG undercover! Good job I cant get that drunk to have to explain that. Do I start watching that scissor lift as well? However I am watching a Sheet Metal bender and a Shrinker Stretcher, both around the £100 mark. Can I get away with those? Hmmm maybe another whiskey David Range Rover 4.2 Supercharged 2006 Ford Focus EcoBoost 1.5 2017 MG TF 2003 Previous Cars of note Land Rover Discovery 2 Jaguar Mk2 3.8 - Company car MG Midget 1974 - Concours |

Having read the last few posts relating to the fear factor / influence / threats / punishment etc from forum members partners, I feel that I should declare that as I do not have a SIWMBO, or a current SWMBO being apprenticed for a possible full time role, there is no fear factor involved for me when internet shopping.
Next problem, is where the bloody hell I am going to put it This sort of thing never ends, as I was taking the photo, I remembered that the larger of the two wooden elephants in the background was purchased ashore somewhere in West Africa, whilst drinking in a seaman's mission bar, possibly in Takoradi if memory serves me right. Most of us bought one as a souvenir, THEN found out that the taxi service had stopped at midnight. We all had to carry the elephants back to the ship.......around 3 to 4 miles away whilst being completely spidered...... which goes to show, age has not made me any wiser |

Correct, on highway, which this guy certainly was. I only use my toy off-road. “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” -where’s the fun in that? |
