whilst I applaud the intention, they are two completely different things. A bit like Radio and Television.

What you mean "used to"?
Those silver ones in the old treacle tin must be worth a "bob" or two by now!

in the good-old-day "coppers" were made out of Copper, "shillings" and "florins" were made out of Silver, and thrupenny pieces also..... and then came the war!

i have heard that you can use peanut butter to remove hazing from mouldings, apparently the oil in it helps lift the wax out of vinyl and plastic mouldings, you have to rub the mouldings a few times to get rid of all the peanut butter, but it works |
Anyway, back to the Peanut butter! - Anyone tested Mikes theory yet?

She's always complained that she can't get her favourite - SunPat Crunchy (other brands are available) easily over here so if were to waste it......
I've spoken to my minions and they all complained that they don't get paid enough were the experiment to go wrong - any excuse to squeeze out a few more bucks

If he can afford a 530 then you are paying too much no wonder they aren't laying down their life for you

As you've probably figured, we love the cars but we also love life and it's far too short to be so anal (can I say that Nigel?) COME BACK EDISON WE WERE ONLY KIDDING
