Why does everything go tits up with a car at the same time.

Just had the brakes, shocks and front bushes replaced - now the catalytic converter needs replacing.

How much can a rent boy expect to get?

Could try using cataclean? It's about £15 a bottle.

Got it booked in for replacing this afternoon - £175

Fair enough. I trust it wasn't the heat shield as that's often the culprit of a rattle.

I would've just smashed the guts out and put the cat-converter piece back on. Wouldn't affect the performance, if anything it'll improve it.

£175 isn't too bad in fairness.

How do people not realise there's a police car behind them with full blues and two's on the go? Just seen a clueless woman drive down Mead way with a copper trying to get past her. I was coming the other way and ended up halfway into a bush to let him through, almost entirely on my side of the road.

She probably uses the mirror to check her face and would be amazed to find out it's there for checking the road.

Yes, because all women are terrible drivers.  Us men, on the other hand, are all brilliant, attentive drivers who never cause any problems on the road.

Or possibly, she's a bad driver, gender has nothing to do with this, and you live in the 1970s.

Bad women drivers are why I'm not buying a season ticket this year.

Not exactly, no.  I just thought the "women are bad drivers, they must be checking their make-up" gag might, just might, have run its course by now.  My bad.  Have you also noticed that Chinese people talk funny?  That should keep you going for a while.

Technically, you're right.  I think "check her face" implied as such, and you do actually understand my point - that it was a woman driver, so must be checking on her appearance rather than paying attention is outdated nonsense - and I'm sure, deep down, you actually agree.
