Just do not understand what it is about you Men but this weekend my Gramps and Dad who have been making room in Gramps Garage are as excited as a couple of kids at the fairground.Why are they so excited well its over a car of course and as always it's a classic(when is it not!)and one my Gramps cannot wait to get in as it was his pride and joy back in the day and all the ladies loved it lol dirty old bugger Grandma did say it had that effect! but come on it is just a car!
For those of you interested it is a TR7 and my mind went blank as they both started talking some foreign language as far as i was concerned so went and had a nice cuppa with Grandma and will take her shopping before the Burnley game because you boys must have time to play with your toys no matter your age.
So what is your favourite toy? and Boogers keep it clean now!

You know it's funny HG. As a retired prestige cars sales business owner. I've been lucky enough over recent years to live the dream car wise. I've owned 6 Range Rovers, M3' M5's, boxsters, even a Maserati GT. They were my pride and joy. I used to polish them within an inch of their lives. Only stopping short of sticking me old boy up the exhaust pipe.
Now I run a new Toyota hybrid and get great pleasure out of looking at my tripometer. Seeing what MPG I get and how much I've done on EV mode.
I wash it when I have to and thats about it. I don't really have any toys in my old age, I don't even like going out much as the country is a sh*t hole and don't feel comfortable in busy places. So I just enjoy my house and being a hermit....
Boogers your identity is revealed
You are Swiss Tony aint ya:-).
And as to going out i do not think you are alone and your age has nothing to do with it.My friends and i will go out for a meal on occasion and to a pub if there is live music but never stay out late late and nightclub no ty to many wankers and dealers.
Tonight my friends and i are enjoying a takeaway some music few laughs and just enjoy each others company without the worry of some idiot being aggressive for no reason other than they are a d*ck.
Agree with what you say HG
But who is this Swiss Tony?.
This will answer your Question BG

No complaints about boys and there toys from me
My Tumble Dryer was not working and i was looking at around £150 to replace it and was chatting to my mum about it when my Dad and one of his friends asked to see if they could fix it first well an hour later it was taken apart in the kitchen they worked out the problem and could fix it they ordered a drum band £10 delivered same afternoon fitted and fixed a bottle of my Dads friends favourite drink and all sorted for under £30.
They had fun my purse stopped sweating and as a girly girl i just admired the way those men just got on and worked out and fixed the problem so to all those Ladies out there who harp on about not needing a man DONT BE SO BLOODY STUPID.
Looking at the prices
Of cars I owned in the past now, I wish I'd kept them and stored them. Corsair 2000E, Saab 900Turbo, Mantas, both the A and B series and one of 500 built, Nova Sport and a few more. Love classic cars and would love any one of those now. TR7, erm...no thanks. TR6, now you're talking.

HG Owning a fancy car is like making love to a beautiful woman. You treat it to the best ceramic waxes and the richest leather creams. Then spank the life out of it and take it right up the tightest country lane...
