    I'm thinking (I put it no stronger than that) of buying a Volvo.

    Will anyone still talk to me?

    I used to own a 240 estate. It didn't make any difference.

    I suspect that people have other reasons for not talking to
    me though.

    I've driven a Volvo.

    My brother is FD for Volvo Trucks.

    I don't suppose I have any grounds to ignore you, really.

    I understand that there's someone who will but only if you put ears on
    the roof.

    Since I came out and admitted to owning one, the response has been lukewarm.
    My advice would be if you are going to get one, get a fast one or else
    you'll have the worst of both worlds; no friends and a boring car.

    Your only saving grace is that trucks are generally more
    biker-friendly. However, as a penance you should be made to swap your
    bike for BMW C1 *and* have to wear helmets with an assortment of
    stick-on ears.

    heh

    Have you met them? Or is it case of looking up 'Boring' in the Yellow Pages
    where it says 'see Engineers'.

    :eek:))

    Yes I have.. I thought that I had a sort of drunken boring engineed magnet
    in me when I used to go to Sweden. I'd end up in a place, getting a pizza
    for tea (for example), and end up talking to the most pissed and boring
    engineer that worked for Nokia, Saab, Ericsson, HP or Volvo.

    I bought it. A 940 estate wivva slush box.

    Duller than a dull thing, but it's a cage. They're *supposed* to be
    dull.

    Anyone good with non-functional CD autochangers? It loads the disks, but
    won't play them.

    I *think* so. It's pretty tidy, drives very nicely and cost 650 quid.

    Neither of you dealt with the printers used to produce IMEI numbers
    behind the phone's batteries perchance?

    Actually... that's changed and to be *exact* it said under
    "Boring" "see Civil Engineers"

    Surely the ears should go on the C1? It could be the only time they
    actually make the rider look cooler.

    I used to work for Ericsson, doing the same sorts of stuff I think. If
    you've been to Stockholm in the past 10 years... we may have met.. :)
