You are. While it was sat in Greater Manchester Police's Garage, they repaired all the damage done in the raid, plus some dents and scratches the wife had done. also it got a perfect interior valet, so all the crust of crumbs and rubbish as carpet, magically dissappeared 🀣

Its even survived being stolen by ram raiders, who threatened pursuing police with an axe, before being recovered on my birthday (BEST PRESENT EVER) and was returned in better condition than it was before!

The first car I owned with the missus was a Fabia, which was completely rock solid. We only got rid of it to get a bigger "family car" and ended up with what turned out to be a complete lemon of a Ford SMAX. We ditched that for the wonderful Skoda Yeti, which we've had for ten years now.

That's it, the rough layout of Fantastic Odyssey's Issue 1 for #OpenQuestRPG and Basic Roleplaying is done. Time to let it rest, walk the dog, print it off and polish it. Should be with backers this weekend/early next week 😍

Alexandra Park Oldham Alexandra Park in Postcards and Comparison with Current Appearance

and as for the UK, my favourite is our system of parks - established by the Victorians, and gradually fading away due to underfunding. We've got lots of them here in Oldham, with Alexandria park in town haveing a website all of its own www.alexandra-park.com (check out the postcards)

If the idea of abandoned settlements blows your mind, don't look at US urban explorers' sites. There's a whole site of picture of abandoned Detroit, where they juxtapose the current state of public buildings with images of when they were being used. Haunted does not start to cover it.

Suffering a similar thing with the first game, which is absolutely lovely and play smooth, but I just want to run about like a loon shooting things (which is why Borderlands is my cuppa). I'm going to uninstall it and come back when I'm a bit more mature 🀣

Did you watch Dirty Business? I can't believe how much water companies have gotten away with. They're putting profit before public health - it’s a scandal and the Government MUST take action! Sick of sewage? Add your name to the petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/pr...

Yeah. You can make a mung bean version - which is why I have a monster bag of them sitting in my cupboard. Intended as a breakfast replacement for Sausage Sandwiches, which is why they are still sitting there 🀣

Red Lentils however always make me think of this guy... (mainly because of his epic soaking of lentils in the bath scene).

Last time I had someone have a go, I ran a whole set of commands to restore my Windows Hello (basically Pin Number Login config was corrupt). Oh seeing the percentage complete go up on a DOS prompt, WICKED :D
