One says 'Protected by Witchcraft' and the other says '333...don't make me show you my other half':D


Nice, nice, do you have a suitably gothic looking car?

I'm afraid all mine says is "Brennans Garage, Nissan Auto Sales", not very interesting.

Pinky;510222 wrote: Lol! That does tend to be something like what sane people usually have on their cars.

No, it's not gothicky I'm afraid, it's white with loads of pink stuff inside!:o


Ah, pink for pinky, I like that, its nice and femine, mine is blue, and quite new and boring looking still as its only a 2002 car, but I did have an old white Ford Escort once, it was a POS, but I loved it cause it was also brill, but after the 17th trip to the mechanic, I gave up the ghost and got a Nissan. You need to have a reliable car if you drive up the mountains and that.

I saw one the other day that really annoyed me.

Men age like wine

Woman age like milk!:-2

Pinky;510227 wrote: You certainly do!

Nissans are nice and reliable, Japanese cars usually are. I used to have a Mazda and I loved it, but it needed so much doing to it that it just wasn't worth it in the end. Got a 4x4 now, which is great considering the road where I live is really a dirt track. No getting stuck in the mud for me this year!:D


Yeah, an auld 4x4 would be handy going up the mountains alright, I nearly drove the nissan into a ravine once, its not an off-road vehicle lets be honest. I can picture you now, driving around East Anglia in your pinky mobile. I do kinda like my car, its utilitarian, which I like, its a fine vehicle really, though I kinda miss the older silver one, as it had a sun roof!!! But I wrote that one off in a crash. Oh the joys of motoring. :wah:

Pinky;510235 wrote: I still miss my old Rover 220, which was also white, but that had cow-fur in it:o

That got written off my some complete numpty deciding to do a u-turn in front of me at the last minute:-5 Shame really, as it was a pretty good little car!

I've managed to drown one by not seeing a river before too...it's not my driving, honest!:D


My first car was a 1986 Austin Metro!!! Me and my girlfriend of the time got given it for nothing, it was worth it as well! We called it "The Scallionator" and put a scottish flag on it, to be different (she was a scot). I wasn't into driving at all, until my mid twenties, when we got that one, but it kept getting stolen and was basically an embarresment, (though it was so crap it was kinda cool in a way), then we had a slightly less crap, but more boring nissan micra, then we had the Escort, which I loved, but she didn't. Then we broke up, divided everything up in the house, I took the car, but I didn't really like having it after that, and it also broke down all the time, so I got a proper nice car, (which I crashed), then I got this one, which I havn't crashed yet! Thats my motoring history so far!

Give us the details woman!

Did the river jump out in front of you?

Or was it lying in ambush?

My present car is a Nissan and I think it was white once.

Excuses - women drivers!!:-5

Pinky;510267 wrote: Crikey, I've had some right old bangers in my time! My first one was an Escort mk2 that I bought from my boss, and it was old then!

I once had a really bashed up old Nova which broke down every time it rained, including on a huge roundabout and in the central lane of a motorway...yikes!

Wasn't too sorry to see the back of that one, hehe!


Well, we were driving one day in the Wicklow mountains, and next thing the whole of the exhaust system fell off, which was a bit alarming, then another time we were in mayo, and the car (can't remember which one) broke down completely in a wood in the middle of the night (which wasn't all bad ). After that on holiday we used to get hire cars! :wah:

Pinky;510271 wrote: No, I'd gone to visit a friend at her new place, which was right next to the river. When I came out it was dark and had been raining. So, the road was black and wet and so was the river...no street lights either. I thought I had to go straight on when I should have turned left.:-3 Oops.


Did you go into the river completely? Thats a bit scary.

Pinky;510283 wrote: Omg! That must have made a racket! (I mean the exhaust system falling off, not you getting stuck in the woods, although.. :wah:


Oh god, it was hilarious, the car was so noisy we couldn't hear each other shouting! As for the woods incident, well it was cold.

Pinky;510284 wrote: It did, but I managed to jam a leg in the door and squeeze out. No harm done.


Quick thinking there pinky, not just a pretty face eh?

I'm back - just had a little contretemps with my computer. So I threatened it with a bloody great hammer and it's working again.

See technology?

Yes, at the time I liked to think that the car sounded like a Ferrai in overdrive, however it probably sounded like a Massey Fergesson pulling a hedge.

Oh technology is brilliant, except when you need it, which is precisely when it always breaks down. Just like on star trek (back to that), see they did predict the future, we have technology, it just breaks down all the time, putting us into interesting dramatic situations.

Pinky;510296 wrote: Hehe, no wonder I like you!:D

It was more reaction than thinking, something just took over and I got out!


Oh you know me, the Charmer. But seriously, that was quick thinking, many people would be too shocked to react, you have good instincts, thank god.

I liked the one I saw that said "You left the stove on."
