    We've got some bright yellow veg oil buses running about in Brighton
    now. They smell strange too.

    A 38 tonne truck carrying catering size drums of veg. oil was nicked from
    Magor Services. The lorry was found abandoned just outside Pontypool. The
    trailer was empty.

    With diesel over £1 a litre I imagine this type of theft seems attractive
    to your unlicensed mini-cab outfit.

  4. Amazingly well, considering there are none.

    Teach a man to fish and he and his pikey mates will have the
    river cleaned out in a day.

    The front end of my ex-wife's Moggy almost collapsed when we took the
    engine and box out. The front chassis legs were like paper lacework.
    Seems the engine and box were holding them from folding up.

  6. They were fuckers for that - box sections full of shite and water.
    Hardly surprising most of them hit the breakers within 7 years of
    manufacture, but that was normal then for just about every car.

    We liberally injected large quantities of old engine oil into all the
    various box sections and cross members of Shirleys '64 Traveller.

    Fucking superb car

    I've worked as a mechanical engineer for over 30 years, I smoke, I
    drink, I eat junk food, my paternal grand parents died of cancer, my
    maternal grandparents died of heart disease and I really don't worry
    about what's going to kill me.

    My mate Neil died aged 16 from heart failure, and he'd never smoked a
    fag in his life. Hitting the side of a Vauxhall Nova with his moped
    fucked him good and proper though.

    My Mum - "Laurence, when are you going to stop smoking, it's going to
    kill you?"

    Me - "Ma, I ride a motorbike and I ride it fast, do you really think
    it's going to matter whether I had a smoke just before my last trip on
    it?"

    Having just been at a family funeral and looked around I can recommend not
    waiting to die of old age.
