Good luck "old fart" (your words, not mine :P)

You've not said where you're collecting the beast from. West Coast? East Coast? Manchester itself? :eek: I can access cameras all over the county so I might keep an eye on you as you drive away :D

Shambles...

Comes a time when you accept being an old fart, sadly I am there :-(....  so no problems :-).

I shall collect  it from Bury New Rd Manchester (yes the same showrooms that are keeping RUSHANDY waiting) and then off to Heswall in Birkenhead for some 'kerching' time....

Be back later with my first drive critique  :mrgreen: :lol: :P

Oh I just saw your ? eye30....

Kerching = money coming thru my till....  So when it's kerching time, I mean I will be sitting down to write an invoice 'KERCHING'.

Unfortunately I don't get as many kerching days as I would like oh ummmm

I understood kerching being the sound of a cash till.

 :lol: :lol: Given what Shambles posted I was expecting you to say you where visiting Heswall for ill gotten gains as we have had a few hold ups recently in that area or spread betting at unsuspecting bookies :lol: :lol:


Using your new i30 as the getaway it would give the boys in blue a run for their money  :lol: :lol: :lol:

Oh I didn't know any of that, using my car as a getaway, wow what an adventure that would be....

No, just boring stuff, like work, I thought that Heswall was the posh part of Birkenhead it is where I go anyhow.  Millionaires row where I go, but alas non of it rubs off  :'(

You don't use Heswall and Birkenhead together.

You don't drop your "H's" in Heswall :lol: :lol: :lol:

Millionaires row where I go,

Just along the road at Caldy is where the money is.

A few Liverpool and Everton Players live in that area plus a few posh nobs and hooray Henry's and Henrietta's.
But alas not me.
