Paging the electronic-isti

  1. I don't know which impresses me more. The fact that he's got a knob that
    big or the fact that some bint was prepared to service it while he was
    messing with electrickery.

    Oh, paint arrived today. Mucho thanks. Still awaiting communication from
    the inscos regarding Twatty.

    I'm hoping his insurance is saying: "Our insured decided to take a
    wander on the M25, clobbered him, gave a dead-end address and false
    phone number, and the bloke he hit only wants a few hundred quid....?"

    "Erm, how quickly should we pull his arm off, guys?"

  2. Nah. Something called a Griffin from the Mac Store and it is, indeed,
    toasted, and I've bought another for £16.

    Not sure it's his knob that's big or he's that big a knob.
    Was the match Ok?.
    So long as it's only his arm they pull off eh?

  4. No idea yet. Looks good in the bockle, but I'll not know until the rain
    stops and I can try it.

    Had you actually thought of offering this as a commercial service? Must
    be loads of people looking for touch-up paint for bikes.

    Well the cunts who mix our paints really *are* cunts and the first mix was
    almost fucking sky blue. I didn't think that was right so I had them do it
    again. Not having a sample myself though, it was a toss up whether they were
    right first time around or not. I decided they were wrong based on a couple
    of panels for a "K" I painted for Nige. If it's not right, let me know o I
    can have another dig a the twats.
    I suspect it'd be a massive loss leader with the price I charge :)

    I have already made the greatest contribution to the fight against climate
    change that I can make: I have decided not to breed. Now quit bugging me and
    go and talk to the Catholics.

    Hm. I'll check it this weekend. The K is a very dark blue, it must be
    said.

    And I'll strip th bodywork off the TS250 as well. Meant to that last
    weekend was hank-waving all weekend so never found a tuit.

    They were definitely wrong first time round then.
    That tuit, it'd just under the bells at the bottom of the Morris bag.

  10. Ach, look on the bright side.
    There was a 50% chance you'd get it right.
