Nevermind you being "ballast", i think you need your head seeing to, after seeing him sunday i reckon he's a man on a mission!!

As for dropping by, would like that.. i also need to speak to you about who painted yours, stu says its a top job and i'm hoping to get mine sorted later this year..

Aye, the handsome **** is a man of many talents.. driving is definatly on the list along with engine building and punching/breaking arms hahahaha


spanky went round with him in the saff and declared himself ready to vomit afterwards.. northernphil reached the same conclusion after a lap in his old K plate civic..
