    i hate trolls

    and reporting them is seemingly having no effect tho i appreciate its a big big board and it must be hard to keep on top of it, i know they do their best. its just frustrating when someone is pretty much insulting you

    Numpty - it was my first YouGov survey for about 4 months:eek:

    Am feeling a little tearful today - I have just seen my very first car, the actual one which I sold back in 1986 and then I was told that the new owner had scrapped it, well Horace is alive and well:j It is 50 years since Alex Issigonis designed the mini and there is a huge convention going on in Cofton Park close to the now demolished works where it was born:D I saw it as I was waiting at a crossing and it was held at the lights, I did speak to the driver and he had bought it from the scrap man:j

    To think I bought the car for £50 when I was 17 (didnt pass my test til I was 21) and lovingly restored Horace as he became to be known, Horace was sold for £95 (he needed a new petrol tank and had low oil pressure so couldnt drive far without overheating:eek:).
