Doesn't bear thinking about

Annoyingly, I usually do when parked on that particular street. :(

Hence the bag of Haribo in the glovebox :yp: Handbrake definitely on, let it off when I tried to reverse out play area but ground was too soft, so police sent for recovery truck to pull it out.

**** my pants more like!

The aftermath........... my van this afternoon. I was at a house this afternoon fitting parts to a boiler, took about 20 minutes, job done Stepped out the front door and I'm like "What the **** ?" my van, with my dog inside had disappeared! Blind panic sets in, first thought was some thieving ####'s got them. After much fumbling I managed to get the phone out my pocket and was about the call the police. Then I see my van about 500 yards away embedded in the climbing frame of the nursery play park! More panic, "Oh god has it hit anyone, is my dog ok?". As I'm running down the first thing I hear as I get to the scene is, "Nobody's hurt and the dog's fine" Relief!!! I have no idea how it didn't hit anyone or anything before the play area. Van rolled down hill veered to right, mounted verge, missed lamp post by a yard, over grass area and footpath, missing flower bed, bench, road signs. Over busy road, another footpath, between a tree and dog**** bin, before going through the fence and coming to rest. Even more remarkable, it was beside the High School and community centre just after 4:00pm! I'm not religious but I guess someone was looking down today! Only visible damage to van seems to be a bust wing mirror. Traffic police going to check vehicle tomorrow. Main thing is nobody hurt and my dog okay

:lol: :lol:

Had youngest daughter (15) at 26, the eldest daughter (20) and son (22), came as a package deal when I met the wife

Logan or as the wife calls him Munchkin Pooky Pie

Logan 2 and a half yrs old and still a muppet

Proper blooming snow falling just now, thought it was meant to be confined to higher ground! More to the point, thought it was meant to be summer!!!

Lovely lookin buck there :good: Looks like the ahem, "big cocker" on the left was the guinea pig an got the No1 setting on the shears

Six One of them only been switched on about a dozen times.

Totally agree She was having second thoughts because some folk, mainly her mum (understandably), weren't 100% for the idea. I just told her it would be better to go out there and maybe regret it, than to a few years from now regret not going out and trying it. (from experience), Had the opportunity myself and didn't do it.

Maybe a wee bit extreme, BUT, would bringing back corporal punishment be such a bad thing. Would get my vote

So is this holiday actually for your son, or you? At 18, think Ibiza might be more up his street...... With his mates Eldest daughter (20) heading out there at end of the month to work ( 1 month with option of staying on). Threatened to go out and see her one weekend, didn't go down well
