Lost in translation
Thought I would share this Was talking to the French placement student at work today and the topic of what we were up to at the weekend came up, obviously I Mentioned stoneleigh kit car show which led onto explaining what a kit car was,,, her reply was classic after a little explaination "Like an Ikea Car?" Lost in translation Made me chuckle WEST

Nice One!
Actually they don't go together anything like an Ikea product. More like an MFI car.

Ah! Val.
I'm sure I could have had her if I hadn't transferred my affections to Joan Bakewell during adolescence.

Quote: True i can just remember watching the very first Dr Who from the classic "behind the settee" position I can remember watching blue peter when they went off on a holiday to some exotic place full of waterfalls and Val wearing a bikini, I've never been the same since. Oh and watching sherlock holmes, hound of the baskervilles in black and white in the classic position. Where has the time gone?
