@TheWza !
If you mean ‘ever’ then me and some mates would regularly cart our shit round to a friend’s house and set up a local network to play Counter-Strike and Half-Life on. I mean we’re talking sort of 2000ish here where none of us could afford stonking broadband. Just hopped in a cab with my monitor and base machine etc…
I was thinking about doing this as well. I also had a flyer come through the door yesterday about newspapers - I’m wondering about getting a saturday paper delivered, but going to the shop and paying would be a faff.
theo…
Lot of #vocationalmates No mechanics though which is a fucking nuisance
An ex-DiSer is now a tradesman, as it happens. (Unless he still posts here? - @marckee would know.)
It’s fine. You can touch me.
Read Mein Kampf and thought it has some valid points.
Yeah somewhere near us can deliver a pint of milk + a sourdough loaf for £4 every Saturday. Obviously more heavily marked up than a supermarket but… means I’m guaranteed to get these two absolutely essential items that I frequently forget to buy.
Get up to anything else at the weekend?
You’re after the ‘books you’ve read in 2017’ thread
I know a mechanic but he’s moved up into the world of doing some sort of engineering lark on oil rigs so he’s basically never here.
I really like Matalan, for home bits and some clothes.
My dad and granddad used to keep racing pigeons.
an honest day’s work
Think I’d tolerate some really bad personality flaws in order to be friends with a mechanic
If we drank milk, we probably would. Parker Dairies are good for our part of London.

My dad is a mechanic which has always been super handy until he started charging me for stuff to do with my car when I was about 22. I asked him why my mum didn’t have to pay and he said he pays her in sexual favours
I’ve got a mate who runs a car dealership and he is FUCKING handy when it comes to looking at 2nd hand cars. Just text him the reg plate and if he’s at work 5 minutes later he’ll have screenshotted an entire HPI check.
He doesn’t.
