Default Good Lord! What have I done?.......

....Let SWMBO borrow my car to go to Gloucester for the weekend, to watch the National Synchro Championships! Not worried about her denting it, but what if she............LIKES IT

Still, those V8's are getting awfully cheap now

Steve, there are few things sexier than a beautiful woman driving a beautiful car!

That's why I have no qualms about letting Mrs G drive mine.

Hope this helps.




Comes in very handy for a pub trip too!!!!

This is exactly what has happened to me this week.
SWMBO has always liked my 75 but as her Astra has been off the road this week she's been using my car.
The most recent remark has been
' How much would I get for my Astra agsainst a ZT'
I think the answer is
WHE HEY

Oh thanks for that Colin, SHE is going AWAY for the WEEKEND. Now I have toy-boys to worry about.
I did offer to go with her but watching scantilly clad nubile teenagers for hours on end gets a touch boring

Friday, Saturday and Sunday at the main swimming pool in Gloucester are the National Synchronised Swimming Championships. SWMBO coaches some of the girls. She swam in the 1984 Olympics (4th) and was European Champion in the eighties. There are solos, duets and teams.

Yep, Steve, now you'll have to buy a second one if you intend to drive a 75 again. Better start looking right now.
