No sign yet, although we did have a close call in Ikea the other night. Still it could have meant a free kitchen

We are now at D-Day +4 so it must be due any day. Car is permanantly fueled up and all site visits have been curtailed to within 6 points of hospital

Thanks for asking and I'll let you know as soon as there is any movement.

ps.. what does the back of a celica look like ??? I don't think I've ever seen one

Yup, that looks like the one.... although I saw it from the front as you were exiting the roundabout.

Very nice looking motor that, I wouldn't mind a closer look next time.

I got a wave of a black blobeye this morning, was shocked first time. There are quite a few silver classics about now, had a wave and flash of one (think it was the one with the lexus lights)

Still not seen you about yet Calorgaz, will time it so I go up princess ave about 6.30ish one day!! (probably be the day your missus gives birth!! hope all goes well with that)

Leesti, very nice looking motor, very clean, think I may have seen you once on the long straight road that goes towards Asda (many many weeks ago) I was turning right at the crossroads, may not have been you though

Leesti, do you work on Moss industrial estate in Lowton? I think I've spotted your car parked up there when I was on my way to Grasshopper pro sport.

Your car isn't that same one which ignored me though. The chap who ignored me was in a Type R.

I think I know which one everyone means in the black blobeye. It's the DIENS one isn't it?

I'm pretty sure it is DIENS... he may be waving back, but his windows are that dark you can't see inside anyway Didn't he used to have an Escort RS once upon a time ??

Question to you local lot, does Grasshopper Pro Sport do wheel alignment cos my rears are way out?

And news update on my wife . . . . . . still no sign I am beginning to think she's just been eating too many pies and won't admit it

Defo DIENS who never waves back. Parks outside of the Queens on Elliot Street a lot of the time. May put marbles in his exhaust next trip to the take-away.

Car came back today. They have done a good job but I have had to order a new set of decals. Also came to renew the insurance and a new cat 1 alarm is required as the original factory fitted alarm is out of date (apparantly). If fitted before Oct 2000 new upgrade is required so booked in for tomorrow to have new system fitted. Next year I probably have to leave the dogs in with a police marksman if the Manchester postcodes get worse.

I'll have to work a full week next week to recover costs-disgusting thought.

By the way Leesti- very nice looking car. Do you get it washed at the place next to Equippe in Tyldesley. I'm sure I've seen it parked up there. I'll keep a lookout for you now.
P.S How long is this pregnancy going to last for as well Calorgaz. The child will be in school uniform at this rate.

I take it he's not a member on here

The wife had her check up today at the hospital, about a week over and not a movement in sign. I'm taking the baby car seat back tomorrow and exchange it for a booster seat

i expect the rs won did it?

Andy10, saw your car parked up last night, if it was the fron that was damaged (cant remember now) it looks spot on. Just need to start driving it now instead of your missus.

This Deins person, is it a black bugeye//blobeye with a pink sti badge on the grill? if so I got a wave today of him (may have been 2 fingers actually as that car is quite dark)

Hi Picasso. So you are from Widnes then? If we can get the decals back on the car in time we may just lie in wait for you on the East Lancs to have a play. If we can't get the Scoob sorted in time we can still play in the Primera or the Ford Ka if you like!!! Latter does an impressive 0 to 60 in six and a half weeks! What Scoob do you have?

hahaha!! I've given him a wave before, but got nothing back... bit of an ignorant **** to be honest.

Has anybody seen the lad driving around in the light blue non-turbo?

Jaytc... is your car a black classic with blacked out windows? I spotted one yesterday when I was working on my celica... looked nice too.

If it looked nice then its probably not mine. I think there are2 other black classics with blacked out windows and I know one of them has gold wheels the same as mine. Mine though sounds much better (my opinion) than the other 2. Where was you working on the car?, cant remember where I was yesterday went a few different places

you had anything done to your RS? absolute little pocket rockets those things, just a matter of getting the power down then they fly. What do they handle like?

Good on you, them flaps look good on what is a very clean car.
Did you go past blockbusters last night in Leigh about 8 ish? I was inside and I saw and heard a white scoob go past. It was gone though before i could see the mudflaps!!
