Default saw an accident last night

was at a pub in town last night for the misses work do, and what happens? an R33 hits the place! (the signage/rails out front took all the force). anyway the car looks not to bad just a mashed front, but then find out the guy is seriously hurt, had to cut him out of the car. So then found out that there was a massive plasma tv in the back seat, must have come forward and done most of the damage. Then found out the car is stolen, i think its justice for this guy! feel sorry for the guy that owned the car but not so sorry for the guy who stole it.

This is a good reason to follow the law folks.

This morning in church the children learned that we have temptations that are often wrong (or in my case, always). The analogy used was a mouse trap with a nice piece of cheese.

The mouse sees the cheese and looks around to see that nobody/nothing is about. The mouse goes for the cheese and SPLAT! It gets caught.

The fact is that when you do the wrong thing, you will get caught (well, sometimes anyway). And you deserve it.

Yeah its amazing how an object can fly when you apply the brakes....

I once had an air compressor in the back of the Festiva, a real big one, that needed to be loaded in by 2 people with the rear seat folded fwd.

Approached the first round about at 35km/h, braked like normal, but the compressor rolled fwd, mounted the seat then jack-knifed into the air..... hitting the roof of the car!

I drove very slowly after that and re-arranged it so it was jammed into a corner and also tied down to the rear end.... Had I been going faster and I needed to brake suddenly in sure it would have gone right through and wiped out the dash as well as probably myself and the windscreen...

convenient parking is just one of the many services that the caledonian offers to its customers.

You wouldn't fit a MASSIVE plasma TV in the back of one of those. I would only fit if I cut my legs off at the knees.

How does that work? A mouse is trying to get the cheese as a food source for survival, not a desired luxury.

Never was one for church lol.


In relation to the topic, serves the guy right! :jab:

Mouse traps are not the primary source of food for mice however, just like stealing should not be our primary source of income or doing the wrong thing our primary source of pleasure.

The primary foodsource for a mouse is anything and everything available in a household! But you're right, i've never seen a mouse eat a mousetrap.

And as if Jesus wouldnt flog a skyline with a plasma in the back seat. He can walk on water, an immobilizer would be a snap. He would have ultimate cred with his crew, Pete , Andrew, John, James, Phil, Bart, Thomas, Jimbo, Matty, Simon, Judus and Thad, and his top hoe, mary magdalin(shes a fine piece Yo)
