Jaffa cakes rule, OK

Postby Sooty655 » Sun Jul 04, 2010 4:42 pm

This morning's first 558 Twitter announcement said.....

Flight servicing complete, chewing in.


Someone's been on the Jaffa cakes again. :)) :))

One Olympus 301 has twice the power of a complete F1 starting grid.

...... and a lot of RAF LWB Landrovers could be started with a stout paperclip - as the ignition was so worn.

I borrowed my brothers Mk2 Escort mexico, locked the keys in the car, then started thinking of ways to break in. The first thing I did was ask the owner of the Mk1 fiesta parked next to it for his keys to unlock the car...........an odd look followed, but he gave it to me and it worked! As you could imagine, the car was promptly fitted with an alarm afterwards :)) .
