Sprocker and two working cockers.

Had to laugh, autocorrect turned sprocker into sprocket!

My favourite sketch was a scene with Mrs T at a restaurant.

Waiter. “What would madam like to order?”

Mrs T. “Steak”

Waiter. “How would you like it cooked?”

Mrs T. “Raw”

Waiter. “And the vegetables?”

Mrs T. “They will have the same as me.”

As the camera pans back to show the rest of the cabinet.

Hi Oggie.

Great to meet you yesterday, Accuspark do a good equivalent. I brought one a month ago and so far satisfied. Like all I think the pick up can be temperamental. I get a great reading off No.1 HT but struggle with No.2, I think because it’s quite curved. I use the S8000 for a very basic set timing and confirm advance use.

Cheers,

Apologies to all I was not able to stay for the 2.30 photo, alas the group I was with had to return at short notice. However it was great to meet you all and put faces to all. Hope you all had a safe journey home, I feel battered and bruised with the the high winds on the A14.

Cheers,
Greg

Loved that, alas shows the age of the joke. Trying keys in locks, explain that to kids.  ;D

So a Top Gear muppet missed his braking point, so what. What I’m intrigued about is the engine.

Here’s a link to the BBC website, https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-49670478

I’m guessing some sort of two stroke with those expansion exhausts but they do leave at the rear of the cylinders. Anyone know more or has been able to google something?

Humour / Surgeons
« on: September 10, 2019, 07:37:30 PM »
A group of surgeons are at a conference and chatting a the end of the day over a beer or two. The first surgeon with glass in and says “ The other day I operated on an engineer. They have to be the easiest patient to work with. Everything is colour coded, connected logically and come with a parts manual.”

Well says the second surgeon. “ You want to try a librarian. Everything is indexed, filed correctly and include a searchable database.”

Well says the third. “ I like accountants as everything is correctly numbered and have a tax deductible value listed.”

The fourth gives his view. “ Construction works are by far the easiest sine they are not upset if a few extra parts are left over or it takes longer than you said it would.”

The fifth drains his glass and looks up. “Your all wrong, politicians are by far the easiest. You open them up and there are no guts, no heart and no spine. Best of all the mouth is interchangeable with the arse.”
