LOL. No, taking my chances. No fun if I don't have to do battle with fozen ground during an ice storm.
Half the fence rails have developed a rotten disposition this year.
Me too! He's been smiling at me all day! He knows I've been nice.
Notice the time on my computer - someone's day did NOT end at 2pm as it should have, but I'm cool with that. I'll just take Monday off. All day.
I'm not catholic, but I think I'd bust out bawling if I met this guy.

Oh dear - I wonder if you should take it in for a "tune-up"?

I don't know what the knacker yard is - I thought being knackered meant you were tired, or 'spent'?

Woo Hoo - lucky you! (I would love a Wrangler)...I'm getting a new Wrangler...a 2002, Tracy and I have been heart-sick since I sold my other one....but Santa old buddy-it needs a new one of these...
It does..it also meant the guy who drove around picking up dead and dying cows from farms,in Yorkshire in Northern England in the early/mid part of the century according to the books,don't know if the term is specific to all of England..give them a try Neesy,you might enjoy those books!Knacker - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I read James Harriot when I was in school (All Creatures Great and Small?) but did not remember a "knacker yard" - thanks for the link!
Andy and I rented the DVDs of the British series as well, from our local library (I think they cost $1 apiece to rent) and enjoyed the series very much.

This vehicle suits you!...sorta like this....I'll post "real" pics when I pick it up....
I think we have it narrowed down to a tie rod or cv joint. But Scott has been too busy to check it out properly yet. I am not driving it right now. Will have to wait until after Christmas, most likely! If it turns out to be something Scott can't handle himself, we will take it to a good friend who has an auto shop business in his off hours. So, inconvenient and frustrating but that's how it goes, right?
...well, at least one of my guesses was right-unfortunately...when he takes it to your buddy sweetie, it might be cheaper in the long run to replace both sides, due to the fact that when you have a new one put in on one side only, it can add stress to the opposite/unreplaced side and make it fail quicker....been there, done that....I think we have it narrowed down to a tie rod or cv joint.

I want Santa to bring me the highest consumer grade Epson photo scanner out there!
I have read everything written by James Harriot....loved him dearly. One thing I do not want for xmas is a co-ordanated tree. I hate the ones where everything match....looks too Martha Stewart. Mine is going up tonight and it will have muli-coloured lights and different colored bulbs and stuff. Suits me just fine.
They are the best- enjoy the tree!
I fell like that kid from A Christmas Story. I’ve been checking today to see if I won the Stephen King Holiday Sweepstakes. Suddenly an email from StephenKing.com appears. I’m quivering with excitement as I open it up thinking... "The greatest Christmas gift I had ever received, or would ever receive."
No... A crummy commercial? Sunofab!tch!
