    suzukis.

    my point was, he's not. He's notable for buying old European
    shit-heaps.

    Actually it's quite easy when you
    a) forget to put the oil filler cap back on
    b) attempt a running repair by bunging
    some cardboard (found by the side of the road)
    into the hole left by the absent filler cap.
    c) don't bother cleaning the sump out later

    It works a treat if you want a ceized GS550E engine.

    He's notable for lots of things. If you want to know how to make a
    *proper* molotov cocktail, he's your man.

    Me neither
    Oh, so he plays darts. OK, I get it.

    Of course, your post would have been much more accessible if you'd
    said "John Lowe, the darts player, had 501 UP".

    Pah. Modern fripperies. Where would Molotov got hold of such things
    in the middle of a Soviet winter?

  14. How long do you have to be here to be that distinguished?

    I'm not quite a noob now but I've got a long way to go to have that
    honour bestowed upon me.

    The grey hair counts for a lot in the "distinguished" stakes.

  16. Actually, you're right. During those times when I can actually be arsed
    to shave, I tend to think the foam looks good over my scruffy beard.

    Does bald and grey look distinguished? I don't think it does so much but
    unfortunately, I'm going to be bald before I get grey I think.

  19. It was somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
    drugs began to take hold. I remember Whinging Courier
    Cynthia Payne, surely.

    Funnily enough, I see a lot of personal plates, that when you look at
    them and squeeze your eyes slightly shut, you'd swear they said
