OK, I'll say I don't think it's that bad - it is bad, though.

What he's done to the wheels makes it worse, and if you dropped the black door bits, who knows, it might grow on someone!

They are one of the best engines made.

All right, so I've had a beer, and I'm colour blind.

That explains the seemingly strange combo of expensive plate/ run-of-the-mill car I saw in a Nottingham car park at the weekend. '9 JCB' on what looked like a bog-standard white Vectra. I commented to my brother that I thought a lot of the JCB plates were owned by JCB.

I love it when I'm right.

BTW - I saw the Blockheads last weekend - not the same without ID unfortunately IMHO. Saw the original line up in the early 90's - amazing gig
