...we're going away for Christmas and the New Year.



I'm going to try to stay unwired, like, that will happen. My father-in-law has more computers than I've had pies over the last year so I may struggle a little bit. Charlie and I are going over to California to stay with the family until mid January. :)



Enjoy your Christmas, your New Year and I'll be back in 2006. Everybody be safe and don't do any aerobatics!


Should be able to pick up some real ricer parts for your accord while there.

They love to splooge on jap cars.

happy holidays :)

Just got back from a pre-Xmas (missus 30 Bday) week in Morocco. Isn't the cold that is the killer, it is the damp soggy miserable atmosphere.

it's always been like that in this group though? :)

I must be weird. I loved getting back from Goa (92 degrees) and landing at Manchester in the freezing cold!

It was near midnight and we was knackered. Missus still had to pick up the car from the parking company, scrape the ice off, then drive home.

Ah yeah, now that would be a grind.

I offered to drive, but she didn't wnat me messing with her car.

I'm 6'2 she is 5'2 the adjustment would have been pretty serious to get me into the driving seat, and I hate people messing with my seat.

So do I. When SWMBO uses my car she moves the seat, all three mirrors, headrest, and usually sets the climate control to about 400 degrees :-/

I think I know what your next car needs - leccy seats with memory.

(no, not leccy seats with mammary - that's an entirely different market..)

cheers, clive

Shall we begin the airing of grievances?

Ha Ha I was waiting for someone to repy, you know you can buy the poles online now :)

my dad's S60 seats have 3 programable settings, moves the wing mirrors to the right position you set them to as well! only thing you need to move is the rear view which aint a big deal :)

My current car has the leccy seat, but no memory, so while there isn't any effort, it is a pain, literally until I reach that compromise between operating the car, reaching the controls and having comfort. And even in a car like a Saab legendary for compfort and ergonomics, I can't quite get there. Closest I found was the basic Skoda Estelle, but the seats were like deckchairs and offered no support on corners.
