On a serious note. The fox has been misunderstood again and has now walked away from the party. I think a few apologies may be in order for 'over stepping' the mark here. Foxy is on holiday and entitled to do whatever he likes. If he wants to post on the forum who are we to judge? Or is there a hint of jealousy that he is in the baking Turkish sun having fun whilst the rest of us are in the rainy UK breathing in car fumes and eating organic ostrich burgers. Yeah, thought so. Give him a break.

Might be the CloudFlare interception.

Just a reminder of what I posted on the first page of this thread. Did anyone even read it?


People that have active, socially hectic holidays surrounded by friends/family/kids, loads of things to see and do, probably wouldn't even think of or have time to post on here.

These are the ones that more likely use the forum to ease boredom when they have nothing better to do.


Others that have quiet, relaxing, 'me' time holidays surrounded by nothing but solitude and a mobile, have the time and need to communicate.

These are the ones that more likely use the forum because they rarely have anything better to do and want to keep in touch.


If, in the unlikely event that I ever go on holiday, I can assure you that I'd still post on here. And read it every day.


Louisa, I agree with you about the apologies, but please don't mention ostrich burgers.

    • Is Dell Autos closing down completely or just moving? For whatever it's worth, for MOTs I've had good recent experience with The Test Centre in Deptford. They only do MOTs so they don't have any particular incentive to fail you and they usually have same day appointments. Open 7 days a week and late. https://www.thetestcentre.co.uk/our-test-centres/deptford-branch/ Obviously you would still need a "normal" garage to do servicing and repairs etc.
    • So what is the issue? You want compensation for the loss of value, or you want to expedite the matter?
    • No. What happened? I actually thought, considering it was what we used to call Guy Fawkes Day last night, the loud noises from  fireworks ended remarkably early. About 9pm? Maybe I just fell asleep and didn't hear any later ones. Do people actually burn Guys any more? Apart from at places like Lewes, where I believe they still have Bonfire Societies and burn effigies of various political figures etc.
    • The accompaniment to our "Christmas Pudding" aka Nothing-Whatever-Like-A- Christmas-Pudding last year  at The Cherry Tree was "brandy butter ice-cream." If it had ever been near any brandy, the brandy must have been waved in its direction from a very great distance. Same with butter. The ice cream tasted like bog standard "vanilla" from a catering tub. At least it did bear some resemblance to ice cream. Whereas the "Christmas Pudding" bore no resemblance whatever to any Christmas Pudding I have ever seen or tasted in my many  decades of seeing and tasting Christmas Puddings. Oh, and Cinzano Bianco. Bleurgh. My sister used to drink that. 🤢
