Reputable car dealers

Nothing quite says 'reputable' like taking your cars off your own premises to a random residential development to photograph them, after of course covering up the numberplates.

Whoops

The FNS-mobile, tuesday

It's more damaged than it looks; bumper, grilles and bonnet shagged; was leaking water (thus tow truck job) but turned out to be the windscreen washer bottle...
Currently at a local bodyshop being hit with hammers by Brummies, and I'm tooling round in a white van from work.

Top FNS tip: When pulling out onto a roundabout, make sure the person in front of you has actually gone.

Blogposts I haven’t had the time or motivation to write this week:

  • Opinions on the manufacturing industries of the UK
  • Thoughts about the passing of the Digital Economy Bill
  • A discussion of the different types of idiot who drive around the midlands on sunny friday afternoons
  • Another breakdown of the tax/cost/profit elements of the price of road fuel
  • A post about the pluses/minuses of each of the major political parties policies for the upcoming general election

Come back next week for more posts I didn't write!
If you want to vote for one of the non-existent posts above, or suggest another subject for me not to write about; please comment on this post.

Seriously though, I've been busy at work for the past few weeks and I'm in the long and tedious process of getting a new flat so blogging will remain light for a little while. In the meantime please poke Gav with a pointy stick and he may well post something on here himself.. ;)

Gordon Brown goes on strike

We've had reports that following his declining poll performance, widespread criticism and a reduction in allowable expense claims the Prime Minister has gone on strike this morning.
Witnesses describe the bovine-featured PM marching up and down Downing Street, carrying a placard reading "Equal terms for equal PMs". Sources close to the Prime Minister claim that Mr. Brown is dissatisfied with the possibility that he may be removed from his role by the electorate this year, along with grievances about pay and conditions.
Government work may be affected by the strike. No. 10 has already stopped work completely, and there are rumours that senior civil servants in various government departments may also walk out in sympathy. If the strike continues or worsens, crucial work on the implementation of ID cards or the ban on mephedrone may be delayed.
So far though the public seem unconcerned. Trevor Gobbalott, a shopkeeper in Tottenham said "he can strike as long as he wants... the cunt can do precisely fuck all for the next 20 years for me".
Further updates are coming..
