Ah, but be glad for small mercies. You could live in Yorkshire, imagine how bad that would be

But at least here in England you can buy a BX for a shilling and thruppence... Think of the bloody prices owners ask in France Ian!

What's all this about?A conspiracy against Yorkshire?Are you jealous?Everybody knows Yorkshire is the centre of the universe.It's a well known scientific fact(just made up by me)You are really behind the times,I flogged my whippets and pigeons years ago and ceremonially burnt my flat cap when I got rid of my Spitfire

Sorry BB, Tim made me say it. He said if I didn`t he`d park a VW outside my house and the stigma would be too much to bear

WHOOAAA THERE BOYS!!!

Lets get back to the fact that this completely knackered 4x4 is starting to fetch good money!!

Thinking about all this Billy, we really need to finish off with the white 4x4.....

Vanny was offering to lend a hand at some point too which would be great with his experience.

On topic, moi?

OK, back on track it is.....what exactly are we doing with the 4x4 now Ian? BTW, think the flu and exam revisions are fighting for space in Vanny`s head at the moment so I think we may need to muddle on between us.
Steve`s drive is crammed full at the moment too: currently the 4x4 and one of my Corsa`s are shoved right at the back I believe.

Ee bah gum! Yorkshire went off track when they "invented" South Yorkshire and totally lost the concept of the Ridings!

Sorry, couldn't resist it!

You're totally right,they made a right pig's ear of it back in 74.When Cavmad takes over the country(see Bloody Gordon again) we'll go back to the Ridings again

Ah! Plans are getting quite advanced then now!

But do you also intend to do remedial operations in repatriating Cleveland to Yorkshire? (I know many that disliked their heritage being surgically removed).

However, I hear that our cars are not too safe in Redcar or Middlesbrough!
