its bucketing it down here in scunny, and the scoobs parked outside.

i need to measure the inside diameter of the intercooler, as i wanna cut a piece of card for tomorrows engine cleaning. has someone got a my99-00 uk scoob indoors that they can measure this for me.

lots of brownie points

I am going to have to hit you soon you muppet
Get a side of a cardboard box, largeish and then rip it so it is flat. Then offer it up to the intercooler, mark and cut. You dont need to know dimensions

Would you like me to get the weather forecast for scunny and see what the prevailing winds are ? and maybe whilst I am there, sort out a gazebo for you in case it is slightly inclement ?

And how many sugars do you take in your tea ??


Go down to your local old people's home, nick some of their 'plastic sheets' and you are sorted

Is it just me but does everyone watch out for CHOC, I mean this in a totally none patronisingh way but I read each posting with baited breath and hope for the best. When I was your age I was never that together.

we only watch out for him because we pity his baldy head and rubbish his crayon drawings...

elaborate, as i dont know whether to take it seriously or with a pinch of salt?

considering youve only made 150 posts in 15 months, (and this isnt patronising or meant to be), probably dont know me as well s others (like swiss) on here. thats not a dig either...

DO a search for his inability to use suncream...... then you'll see why we have to look after him.

It's not because we want to - it's purely that he'd probably kill himself without the adult intervention that resides on ScoobyNet

(did I just make up an oxymoron? "adult" & "scoobynet"!!! )
