53 Plate 2003 D-4d Rav

[bothwell_buyer]

Ahm jist gettin a wee bit confused. If ye build yer wa an add various other impeading devices, waur dya think yer petrol an oil are gonnae come frae?? Course, ye cuid use the hydrogen fuel station in Kent ye ken. Take an example frae Offals Dyke which served nae purpose an look whit happened tae Wales - fu o English wi nae RAVs! Oar convert yer D-4d RAVs wi a Prius engin? That's be some conversion!!

Hooever, economics enters ra foray cos ye dinna have any builders doon there apairt frae them building the Olympic shambles oar sorting oot the puir folk in Hull an their flooded hooses....both of which are takin years an will cost 12 times the original estimate, and will only last for 6 months....

Oh aye, n we have tae look aifter aw yer planes gang oer tae the USA cos wur better at Traffic Control (applies tae flying RAVs tae)

bothy you have a frustrating ability to make reasonable sense even when you are larking about (while secretly being intimidated by our cunning plan). How about reconsidering that job at 10 Downing St?

Anyway, don't think we rely on you for fuel cos we've got Ivan holding us to ransom on that one so we may as well beg just him instead of both of you. I remember a time when the prospect of BRITISH - NOT SCOTTISH oil was going to make us all wealthy and we could wash our cars with the stuff but low and behold - just another government scam to make us feel better about shutting railways to finance oil rigs then load the price with duty equal to hauling the stuff half way around the world.

You just can't win.

You may detect just a glimmer of the grumpy old man that the telly thing was originally styled on - sorry for that.

I fly over the NW coast of Scotland every year on the way to americaland and there is stunning remote beaches up there. More than enough room for a few trillion immigrants who can be funded by your (read that as the stuff we English and Welsh showed you how to get) oil.

Anyways, what about this job? If I vote for you I want you to introduce several new acts of parliament;

Fitting an exhaust even a millimeter bigger than the one it was made with - death by agony.

Playing a phone out loud in a railway carriage - death

Playing an ipod thingy so that anyone can hear that tingly noise - imprisonment and starvation

Doing something outrageous at an age that cannot be named for legal reasons - named then death by agony

Parking on a footpath - back one of those big Scottish dumpers over the offending car.

Driving while drunk, drugged, uninsured, untaxed - dumper, named then death

Playing that kind of music that pinky traumatised me by surprise the other night (I was expecting Simon and Garfunkel) - councelling for her because she's too nice but a good birching for anybody else (Manxrav will tell you what that is).

Fuel duty abolished (but doubled for anybody with an exhaust bigger than it should be while their death sentence is pending)

No income tax and free everything for anybody over the age of 49 (that is derived from serious mathmatical statistics and any similarity with my age is purely coincidental).

Bring back the death sentence.

Anybody else got anything they want bothy to sort?

[dave.m]

Yes to all the above except-

Lower the age to 46

England and Wales ? thought the welsh had their own parliment ?

All this independence guff makes me laugh, some facts-

Jersey, Guernsey and IOM,

Part of the EC ? no.

Part of the UK ? no.

Part of the british isles ? yes.

Do they recognise the queen as their head of state ? no, their banknotes

dont even have the queen wearing her crown, just a plain photo of HRH.

I believe they are collectively known as a pecuilarity of the crown.

Well yes but bigger and deeper with mines on the top and sharks underneath.

And in any case this is absolutely on topic. We've done the serious stuff, now its time for a lark!

Can we get rid of those annoying "This isn't just" M&S adverts. Everytime I see one I want to

[bothwell_buyer]

Hmmmmm

we seem to have strayed away from the issue of 2003 Diesel propelled RAVs. I suspect its a way of trying to avoid attention from smelly 5 door mini-school cruisers / tractors ??

And as a point of dubious fact, Hadrian built a wall to keep the southerners in. It was a failure cos we knicked the stones....

How many 3 door RAV diesel members are around?? So as I can formulate a policy about 5 door owners..... :lol:

Could he be lost for words?

Chatman I think you struck a nerve.

Pinky - once you have debated the serious issue it is quite in order to go off at a tangent.

Folk whit ken me will also ken ah dinna like M&S cos of multiple reasons, all based aroon an argument ah had wi wan o their managers about a pair o wool based troosers which wore oot aifter ony 7 years o wearing them. the mgr widnae refund me so a telt him ahd never buy anither thing frae them and neither ah have.

Hooever, ahm quite happy visiting their shop, sitting oan the seats provided fur folk tae try the shoes and gain the benefit o the heat in their shop. Noo if several hunner o us did that it'd affect their profitability ? See, if yer goanie moan, dae it proper and dae sumpthin aboot it. Dinna jist moan fur the sake o it. If ye dae whit ye've always done, ye'll get whit ye always got. Want tae change somepthin - then dae sumpthin different!! (Prof Rosabeth Moss Kanter)

Brummie & Black Country

Unfortunately, due to increase mobility, the Black Country dialect is getting infiltrated by Brummie and vice versa.

Long before I was born, my Dad worked for a company which had offices in the Black Country and Glasgow. He reckons it was always good "sport" getting somebody from Gornal (heart of the Black Country), to talk to some body from Glasgow. ;)

Cheers :D

Unfortunemont, ahm nae frae Glasgae bit frae Fife. maks a wee bit difrence ye see. Ahm frae the lanmd o whit ye ca tracturs n wheat n oats. Ma granpaw wis the gamekeeper wot held the biggest shotgun in Scotland and won mony a prize. Ma uader brither lived in Coventry fur a few year til he went oan his ain way. An ah lived in wallasey fur 10 year wot was stamped firmly in ma skull frae the insult an bullying ah had when a wis wee. no tae say ahm scunnered by it but ah am but. Ah've been blessed by living here in ma butnben fur almost 40 year aside o the trauma whits happnd.

An me aunt lives in Mghull ootside Lvpool - posh area eh? So ahm kinna used tae maist accents accept scunners in Newcastle. I ma time ah also worked in Oxfod n stayed in Chipping norton or chippy as they cawd it locally whaur Clarky lives.

Ahm quite a humbil wee guy whit keeps hiself tae hiself an ony post things whit seem tae be o some benefit, if ye ken whit ahm gain oan aboot. Maist o it is unnerstandble tae keep it within the confines o this from.

Noo, aw ah need tae dae is decide whither tae use Aptana fur ma web pages oar dreamweaver - ah yised tae use Hot Metal but wan o the cloots boucht it oot an closed it doon.

Ok, Bothy, Fife's one of the corners of Scotland I've not seen much of, been to St Andrew's once.

Can't help you with the web design software - I'm not big into that. Can write a bit of raw html, but that's about it. Anyway, if I was, I'd probably be using a free GPL'ed package running under my favourite OS (see the penguin). Dunno whether the likes of Chatman would have any opinions.

Sounds like you need Predator ( the software not the film )

[anchorman]

Well yes absolutely

And I couldn't agree more with the electronics gurus on the sat nav problem either

I just hope they don't leave us
