MCHUDD, you are a legend among men for the window glass. Anyone who's helped me out, consider favours owed

speedy, door handles are on there way to you!
postage i think was like four quid, i would say dont worry about it but i want to buy some volvo centre cap stickers to cover up the bmw ones on mine and there only like 3 quid something so if you can just paypal me 4 quid and it will save me some hassle.

1973 Datsun advert, Milka chocolate with biscuit and beer flavoured sweets in a free beer glass. All from Deutschland

Yum. Am looking forward to the end of the "fasting period", never again, life is very dull ATM
Erdinger is a good "Weißbier" but "Franziskaner Dunkel" tops the lot. Drool ...
Happy birthday "nachträglich" ...

I has some Darmstadter last month, that was pretty lush. But then almost everything from Germany tastes like heaven.

It's in! Finally got some time. What an arse of a job that was. Have an extra "speedy got a new camera and saw chris today and is showing off" pic.
It's not clean, it's not perfect but it's insurance valid
Happy days
Oh and for the bus fanatics - spotted this on the way home. "Isn't that the one from the italian job?"
