Refreshing. Not just the vista, the dog had just attempted to chase the ducks and found herself rather out of her depth in the water.

Utter moron.

Agreed. Theres a lot of meh options. The satin grey wrap, however, looks very excellent, Apline-esque (whose choices are also pretty limited)

Indeed. Why I deleted my account.

But anyway, I think everyone who isn’t a flag-shagging, X-posting, Trump/Farage arse-licker think that the R5 is a wonderful, wonderful car.

I want one. But I’m also torn because I was a R4 with the opening roof.

This worked out really well for the Americans when they armed the Afghans against the Russians, didn’t it?

What do they say about doing the same thing and expecting a different outcome? πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ

The strategic prowess of President Trump Commander in Chief will likely be described in many colourful 4-letter words when I refuel my van tomorrow.

Hint. Probably won’t be focused on words such as spur or bone.

If you don’t understand history (or logistics) then this is a perfectly reasonable stance.

Yeah sure, let’s open up 2 front lines in polar opposite directions. We’ll be *fine* (in Ross Gellar style)

Indeed. They were so clever I told my dad to buy one. The absolute best of them were the *massively rare* 2.2 petrols. They were quick, pretty agile and didn’t get the chav reputation that the GSI turbo version had. Bit of a sleeper.
