Can't afford a towel

I'll bring you one back off my next cruise - white or blue

[towny44]

....or perhaps one of those black and white check ones like Yasser Arafat used to wear!

Lucky you.

A week or so back we were held up in very heavy traffic, due to an accident on a round-a-bout, on the A35 in very hot n sunny Darzet.

Guess what .. with a temp of 30+++ the warning light came up on the Air-Con so it had to be turned off.

When did you last have a service on your Air-Con ?

Our local garage said the pressure was more than 50% down but soon sorted it all out for a mere £60.

Get yours checked out is my advice …. just saying.

[Stephen]

Had ours recharged last year.

I got mums recharged yesterday. Her car had absolutely no cold air from the air-con. And she travelled all the way down from Lincolnshire like it. All good now do she go home

[Mervyn and Trish]

I remember the good old days before air con. My Dad's old Hillman had flaps you could open at the bottom of the window. And no heater either.

[Stephen]

And that old fashioned thing called a window winder helped too.

Didn't even have a window winder on my first Mini - just a sliding glass panel and what about the string pull to open the door and no synchromesh on first gear - had to double de-clutch to change down - passed my driving test on it - 1st time too

[towny44]

Our first car was a Morris minor with semaphore style indicators, and the only air con came via the holes in the floor.

[Stephen]

Eeeeee...when I were a lad...

[Manoverboard]

Wirra Ford whatsit engine in a fibreglass open top wirra bag of spuds in back t keep it on t road … ay, those wor t days

[Stephen]

......or a bag of cement in the boot of an old mini to give the rear brakes more grip when it had its m.o.t

[Happydays]

The start of August great, the kids go back to school soon

[towny44]

I prefer them on holiday, just popped down to our local supermarket and very little traffic and the place was empty, during term time its frantic with kids everywhere and the car park full of parents dropping off their little darlings to pick up their tuck shop fodder.

All in they're Chelsea chariots which half of them can't drive to save they're lives.

[Manoverboard]

We on the other hand deffo do not look forward to the school holidays as the entire County and beyond fills up with ' grockles '.

[Stephen]

Went to Frinton yesterday with the good lady. Haven't been there for years. Beautiful sandy beach.
Couldn't believe what the beach huts go for. Silly money of up to and sometimes beyond £30000, for what, an over sized shed. Of course it's the position your paying for, but even so...

[Manoverboard]

You wouldn't get one at that price at Cristchurch, Dorset …. oh no, thems'll be sellin' upwards of a quarter a milyon !!!

[Stephen]

Where you talking, Sandbanks, or are beach huts to common over them there parts.
There's always some mug with more money than sense that'll buy one Moby.

By the way, what row is yours in

[Manoverboard]

They are in Christchurch, East of Bournemouth, situated in four locations but the ' scarey ' ones are on Mudeford Spit.

One good wave and there're all matchwood

ps … ours is tucked in under a tree but backing on to a fence for best protection against any storms that may arise

[Stephen]

Yes, our log cabin is in a similar very sought after position.

[Mervyn and Trish]

Mine is in our garden 80 miles from the nearest sea. Should be safe there unless this 'ere global warming really gets going.
