Typical QOTW male.
BGB suggested that many of the chaps on here 'own griddle pans, play the guitar and are wine/real ale fanatics' - others have suggested we are 'beardies' and fans of Half Man Half Biscuit.

What other common traits do you think we have?

And for that matter what makes a typical QOTW lady other than being the owner of breasts?

I fall in to the griddle owning, wine and ale loving, guitar player group.
I don't have a beard and have never listened to any HMHB.

I do however own a lot of grown ups toys like Force FX lightsabers

I think most males here own or love Scalextric

Of course at 5 he needs to be older before he can play with it.

My wife watch twilight and decided she wants a Volvo C30
as a life long biker I told her I would leave her.

So far all I have got her for Christmas is a Matchbox toy Volvo C30
( Peej, Wed 2 Dec 2009, 11:57, Reply)

A C30
is an ugly car, IMO.

And the name reminds me of a rare kind of cassette tape.
( K2k6 has a proper job these days, Wed 2 Dec 2009, 12:02, Reply)

Not rare in my house.
I've got loads from my first band.

Yes its a really fucking horrible car.
( Peej, Wed 2 Dec 2009, 12:03, Reply)

Mine were mostly C90s
As you could record an LP on each side.

If Volvo bring out a coupe version of the S80, maybe they'll call it a C90. That would amuse me.

We used C30s for 5 track demos and the like

When I bought my car
I also bought a load of C120 to record the most amount of music without having to change the cassette.

Then my dad bought me a CD player.

Scalextric is incredibly overrated
it takes longer to set it up than it does getting sick of the car flying off. Ideally you need a huge track to stop it getting ball crushingly dull as well.

2/10

half man half biscuit on the other hand, are superb

Yeah, Scalextric's crap
It always takes about 15 billion hours to set the track up. And even when you do, the thing never seems to work.

First time I heard that song
I was driving. And I nearly put the car off the road laughing when that bit came on, as up to then it had all been downbeat with talking over a guitar backing.

You should always plan on getting a devorce, from the moment you leave school.
Even if you're single and have nobody in mind, still plan for one, just in case.
