    According to Wikipedia, it has (had) a political party call "FFS".

    I like the place already.

  2. To the point that you'll loose your teeth running over 5000 rpm, just
    before getting the plugs on a low orbit.

    Fortunately the rust keeps parts together, they must have bought a
    Suzuki patent.

  3. Or Audis from any century (even brand new A3's use about a pint of oil
    a month. Audi's explanation is that it's to do with their 'racing
    heritage'[1]).

    [1] Unlike (say) Honda. Or Jaguar. Or Toyota..

    Ever read any of Terry Pratchett's 'Watch' Discworld books?

    If so, ponder Captain Carrot, who considers himself to be a dwarf,
    even though he's six feet four. Remind you of anyone?

    I still love the little snippet whereby he reprogrammed the quiz
    machine in the pub with questions like "Who did the bank job at xxx?"
    and the like, and then went out and nicked the perpetrators.

    Won't do much good - got home tonight to find a "recorded delivery"
    package on the doormat.

    Worse than that, it's addressed to:

    Mr A Bloke,
    not quite the same number as me,
    next street along from me,
    London.

    So, postie got "london" right.

    Recorded my arse.

    Hmm. Thankfully, our postal services are somewhat more efficient.

    Ah, my mistake. I sort of assumed that something that didn't exist,
    couldn't be 'renewed'. I need to get back to my basic English grammar
    books.[/QUOTE]

    I see the sarcasm (my, how lightly veiled) but although there WAS a
    contract, it ended when the insurance policy timed out. It's not your
    grammar that needs looking at, merely your comprehension.

    Simply sending out a reminder that a contract is about to "run out" doesn't
    start another contract.
