Lee

You work hard, provide for your family and are a good chap! Go and indulge yourself for if you do not then there will be a time in the future when you will keep thinking "I wish I had......."

Anyway, with your record it will only last two months

Lee, is the Maserati instead of or as well as the McLaren SLR?

Have you driven one ? They are glorious cars to see and be in the design touches are superb.
This type of car isn't on my radar so I haven't owned one but it would be on my short list along with a Porsche Panamera or a Aston Martin Rapide

Oh Brian Brian Brian! A few weeks ago you told me NOT to get a Lotus 340R. What about my dream?

One rule for Lee and another for me eh?

Excuse me if I have got this wrong, but didn't you buy an X5 not that long ago? What's the story with that? No good?

The worse (worst?) vehicle I have ever owned.

Terrible steering (whoever let that pass at BMW should be shot), poor mpg compared to its competitors, cheap feeling interior (leather seats were good though), boot was relatively tiny, and it had many quirks that were very frustrating; couldn't open petrol cap with key still ignition - when petrol light comes on you completely lose the clock being amongst others.

I also spent over a grand in about six weeks on repairs too (and not wear and tear for a 70k vehicle)

It's sold, being collected Wednesday morning.

He only came this dinner time instead!

An event clearly so momentous it even changed time in the local area, the rest of us were only having our lunch

Oh Lord

Sorry to hear that. Hope the next one is much better for you.

It's the only question that will define if you're north or south; what do you call the meal at midday?

To answer the age old debate, I simply have one question: when you were at school, what were those lovely ladies that served you your meal?

Lunch ladies? Of course not, they were dinner ladies!

 

[Deleted member 113659]

double post

Wasn't sure how to answer the question to be honest...

The SLR is a target for the future, I'll have probably owned 100 more cars between then and now.

I've worked on a fair few Masserattis and all you
have to watch for is the interior trim falling off
in your hands

Personally, I think it depends on what meal you have at midday and what meal you have in the evening.

Dinner ladies served dinner at midday - which I class as a proper cooked meal. Then you have either dinner (again) or tea later.

If you have lunch earlier and big cooked meal later, the later meal is dinner.

I believe they were called "Catering staff"

Got a headache after reading that!

Sunday roast is mostly called Sunday lunch during the day. And Sunday Dinner towards the night.

Never heard it called Sunday Tea.

Aaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. It's all to much.

It's a north south thing as said.

I think people should just suit themselves with what you call what because we'll certainly never agree on it.

PS: I call a roast a Sunday dinner regardless of time of day it is eaten.

What, you mean not everyone had their school lunch delivered to study by their butler?
