Salesmen
Hot hatches being driven about my town, all by octogenarians. Are they all geriatric speed racers, or have the salesman baffled them into buying a GTi RS4 iX FL-24 M-zzz Gazundo MasterWagonBlitzer coupe when what they really want is a pound of oranges??

Maybe I was too harsh earlier on
the JMG post is a rallying call

The content within the thread may settle after packing, or be versatile and intelligent.

After all, who would recognise a fanfare if it changed every time majesty approached?

It'd be like the Queen dressing up in a Shell Suit for public events.
At first it'd new, and somewhat entertaining.
But after a while it just wouldn't be her. Just some old bird nobody cares for.

bloke around the corner from me has a 67 Ford Mustang
it does 20 miles a year, he drives it to the garage and then to the MOT centre. The rest of its life is spent on a trailer going to shows.

I keep wanting to scream at him, DRIVE THE FUCKER. or something.

just spends the time
firing it up and revving it for the noise?

I hear that is the same fate as the original KITT

I will admit though it is absolutely spotless and the most immaculate thing I have seen.

shame you never saw

sounds like a load of bolloxs
I mean, that Joseph bloke must be soft in the head. Imagine falling for the old "its gods child" line.

well it didn't look like
a typical hebrew child, what with the pale skin and golden hair etc.

sounds like there may have been some vikings down in Gallillee around the time of the mystery 'conception'

I hear they still owe the inn keeper a load of money.

made up for it with marketing though
every christmas and easter he has to put on the answerphone, "YES we're full. Try the Bethlehem Travelodge".

down here?
I was directly posting on my experience in Cornwall back in the early noughties. Down here south England, or down here southern hemisphere?

that is not a good sentence

Yes
but I had to condense. I am naturally verbose, but /talk doesn't like paragraphs. Some sacrifices may have been made to mother grammar.
