One of my favourite's was...........

"CRAZY SALE!"

by that loveable wee chappie Paul. I can remember the melee this episode caused as if it were yesterday. The horror - the horror!

Howdy-do-da.

Welcome, nice to have you on board.

The best piece of advice you will get today is......read read read and when you've done that read some more.

PS... this thread fell apart didn't it? :-P

Nope.......someone will be along soon who will resuscitate the original concept and get the choo-choo back on the parallel thingymejigs.

Swines that they are!

I could tell you..........but then I'd have to shoot you.

It's like a recurring rock dream I have tho'; I'm at the Albert Hall in 1969 and Pagey invites me up on stage to jam a tune I penned that he and Robert are all on about, Kashmir (I'm from the future you see), then the roadie hands me my axe:

Similar dream Dems.....Pete and I - Leeds University. Pulsating bass by John. Machine gun drums by Moonie. Cha-ching! By Pete.......I approach the mike........."Happy Jock wasn't old but he was a man......"

Roger........"F*ck off!"

......one burst bubble later! Never mind eh!

Jeez......you made it a tough one this time Bob, however I found advice from a Norris as well. Prof. J.P. Norris to be precise:-

"Let me describe in a little more detail my interest in coagulation. In diverse contexts one is led to consider a large system of particles (bubbles, droplets, stars, molecules...) which, over time, stick together to form larger particles. This can be modelled as a Markov random process. The challenge is to discover the possible sorts of behaviour of these systems: is there a non-random approximation giving the evolving concentrations of particles of various masses, do most of the particles eventually (or instantaneously) stick together, do spatial fluctuations matter, does the mass distribution, suitably renormalised, converge in long time? These are questions of interest to scientists in many fields but a rigorous mathematical theory has only partly emerged. Techniques relevant to the analysis of these processes are martingales, weak convergence, coupling of processes and plenty of careful estimates."

Okay who's next?

JTB

Nah only kiddnya. Haven't the foggiest clue where Vicky is these days.

I miss Victoria!

Victoria? - He threw his toys out the pram a long time ago!

lol a Z3 what a chick car. Only a Miata MX5 could have been worse, but yeah, the DB5 is, was, and always will be...........'it'.

Dems - the wife has a Z3 and on occasions when I have had to use it and spied doing so by my mates, they tell me it makes me look like a gay hairdresser!

Bah!

(Not that I've got anything against gay hairdressers!)

As a saucy banker girlfriend from a previous life once said to me, "Early withdrawal loses interest".

I have a lovely pacific blue XK8 (can't post pictures from work) which I've had for almost a year and it's the best car I've ever owned. Sure it's a bit gutsy on the fuel (4L engine) but hey it only does about 8 miles per day.

The only minor issue I may have at the moment is that I may have to replace the ABS cable sensors as the warning light intermittently comes on - wear and tear imo.

Go for it - a Jag is more than just a car, it's a statement about quality and performance. I always get a real good feeling behind the wheel of mine. (especially at 160 mph )

Enjoy.

I am in the golf capital of the world!!!

St. Andrews! Brilliant, you're only a few miles away from me!

Like a beacon! Well done!

JTB

Welcome Vac!

and there was me thinking that he had just been smacked with a cricket ball in his family jewels by some American Ian Botham wannabee...... Until I remembered that over there they play roundas with a lighter baw.

This thread could have disintegrated into a chaotic hoot..................

...........................had I got to it a bit earlier!

We are a cruel lot at times! However I vote it post of the month......no wait a minute......post of the year......sod it......best post ever!

get him one of those t-shirts that looks like a tux! Easy peasy lemon squeezy!

If you can't find what you want in here then my name is Rumplestiltskin.

I would have to add.......that's what this place is all about.

Big respect to you and your very helpful fellow members.

JTB

Tell her to read, read, read.........Tell her not to ask any stoopid noob questions like "who has the best sub?"................Tell her to pick her dealer first then pick her watch................and finally............make sure she has the link to Toadtorrent's guide.

JTB

............and if she's really smart she'll upgrade to "Supporter" right away!

Portmeirion eh! "I am not a number, I am a free man!"

Not anymore you ain't!

Seriously though, many congratulations from me. Looks like it was a day to remember. Best wishes to you both.

JTB

I'll alert one of our techie guys...........need to drag them out of the dark cold room they live in and feed them some raw meat first so it might take a while!
