Keep thinking I should build this. Need something in the evening to keep me sane.

This shot in the "LIVE: THERE IS A STORM IN THE UK" made me giggle.

Honestly, it is a bit windy folks, not everything needs a "LIVE" page.

"A car is not a phone on wheels, it’s a safety critical mechatronic system on wheels. Two tons of speeding metal is not a consumer electronics device."

I'd take that as a warning shot across the bow and be a very good boy for the rest of my life...

Very much code brown.

That mini okay??

Lots of cool waterfalls and walks.

Dolgoch Waterfall is excellent, lovely walk alongside the river.

The Torrent Walk is nice as well.

There are a few nice walks near the Precipice Walk area too (good parking and signs)

I've spent a long time in Dolgellau 😀

If you don't want to do uplift, you could just rent a MTB and do some easy trails. Coed y Brenin has some excellent free trails for all abilities. The green and blue routes are stunning.

Do you like mountain biking? Hiring a bike at an uplift centre and flinging yourself down a hill is a fun way to spend half a day (they have blue/red routes where you don't have to jump, just hold on). Antur Stiniog is excellent.

You are going to home of Ivor the engine, so get on a steam train too

Spoilers!

(I think it was because the proper name had a really bad reputation state side, so they gave it a different name to avoid that)

So fix it in post is fine if you can ship in less than 5 minutes to every customer 50 times a day. Say a non critical B2C web app.

(I say this as someone who’s worked in that environment)

But for something that might kill someone, slow the fuck down.

Move fast and kill things isn’t a good look.

-/+ 3 on the year I think.

Which helps spread out the guesses, just trying to remember what years I’ve guessed.

I really think I should build my own version fixing all these issue 😂

LET'S DO IT 🙌

2009 Morgan Aero 8 Dark green Manual, 6 speed Left Hand D... 2009 Morgan Aero 8 Dark green Manual, 6 speed Left Hand Drive in United Kingdom - For Sale | Car & Classic, £0 The Ex - Auto GT Racing, E...

This thread has got me looking at Aero's on C&C...and I've discovered this thing.

<insert take my money gif>

Can confirm, also a software engineer.

Really enjoyed it! Looking forward to the next instalment.

I’ve got that treat awaiting me tomorrow 💩

Wait. I thought Max could put a milk float on pole?

It was amazing. It’s in for a pre-sale going over. Yours for £60k.

Think he said it’s 80 or 90bhp, out of an Austin 7 engine. Which is originally what 15 bhp 😂😲

On the job training.

So Boy2 has a new Saturday job helping fixing up Austin 7s from next week. He’s a very lucky boy.

He got to play in a race car one today.

Nah. It’s all just Honda.

Excellent mix of interesting cars this morning at the Banbury natter group. 45+ cars. Here are a few.

Loved the Group N Metro, multiple class winner with Tony Pond. #WeirdCarBS

Ah okay. I was very confused, but makes sense.

I wondered if you had an Acura type brand in the US that we just called something else.

Did they get you at the braking zone?

I believe in you Daniel, you can get them.

Mode 7, overtake available.

I knew it was that shape from 1st guess and couldn't remember the exact model, then started doubting myself. SO ANNOYED.

Cardle 5/5

Today is going to be a fun day.

Taking the TR7 to a local classic "natter" group that I can't normally make because of kids sports on a Saturday morning.

Then in the afternoon, taking Boy2 to the local Austin 7 specialist to see if they'll take him on as a "Saturday Boy". 🤞

Out of curiosity what is an LS badged with you?

So many hours playing this when I should have been studying in my 1st year at uni.

I also shouldn't have spent any of my student loan on a Playstation...

Yeah nuance, but I can see why they've kicked it out.

I'm taking an amount of joy that the claims vultures might have wasted money getting setup.

But they knew the rate they were paying. Sales people are paid commission to sell the car as well.

They didn’t have to take that rate, it’s always cheaper elsewhere. Feels like rewarding people for laziness.

Pretty sure even Martin Lewis money saving expert guy thought this was a bad idea
