...of his Omega looks to have a hole in the windscreen and a hanging off wing mirror but I cant blow the image up to see it clearly. :-\

Once upon a time, there was an
angry amiable fellow called TB. He lived a quiet life in a sleepy backwater in the equally sleepy Shire of Northampton.
One fine summers day, he the whole of Brackley awoke to the sound of his garage exploding :o
The picture is the net result of that tale... although credit where it's due... the broken drivers window was the handiwork of Northants Fire and Rescue Service ::)
HTH :y

oh sorry tb. didn't realise your car took a smack from the blast also :'( :'( :'(

More than a smack. If was quite a sight :o

Yes we have missed something. How come the Rusty bullets lost top billing...? :o
Has Mrs TB hidden it from him? ;D

I had complaints the my avatar - what a fellow admin had put on, but in such a way as to cover his tracks (but failed) - wasn't working, as the file never got restored following the server disk SNAFU, and as I couldn't find my old avatar, I used the first car pic I could find.
But you're right, it should be of the most superior car I've owned... ...the litte gRover ;)

Not quite, but at least:
a) drivable (thanks to tunnie and joshwyatt for their help)
b) doesn't look like its driven through downtown Kabul (thanks to VXL V6 and chrisgixer for parts)
That said, the "bullet holes" in the bonnet always caused a raise eyebrow in the works carpark ;D

O-oh. ...I thought I gave them to you...? But then, there's a pair in the other garage, and was looking at them yesterday trying to think where the hell they could of come from, given that I "gave them to you" ...or did I?
I'm told it comes to us all in the end. :-\ ;D
Tunnie was here yesterday as well. Arse. ::)
