    Smile Another year of worry free motoring

    Well the battle bus passed its MOT today with only a few things worth mensioning. Advised on the O/S track rod end and rear pads other than that sailed through.

    Just wanted to say thanks to smithness for sorting it all out for me and looking after the car whilst I have been in the Falklands, a true friend.

    Did you know the EU says that you can't claim that drinking water prevents dehydration. So now you know for sure what many of have known for years that the EU is run by a bunch of nutters.

    9 days left Emlyn! Don't forget to bring a stick of rock

    A farmer buys several sheep, hoping to breed them for wool, chops,
    etc... After several weeks, he notices that none of the sheep are getting
    pregnant and phones a vet for help. The vet tells the farmer that he
    should try artificial insemination. The farmer doesn't have the slightest
    idea what this means but, not wanting to display his ignorance, only
    asks the vet how he will know when the sheep are pregnant. The vet
    tells him that they will stop standing around and will, instead, lay down
    in the grass and roll around when they are pregnant.

    The farmer hangs up and gives it some thought. He comes to the
    conclusion that artificial insemination means that he has to impregnate
    the sheep. So, he loads the sheep into his truck, drives them out into the
    woods, has sex with them all, brings them back and goes to bed.

    Next morning, he wakes and looks out at the sheep. Seeing that they are
    all still standing around, he concludes that the first try did not take and
    loads them into the truck again. He drives them out to the woods, bangs
    each sheep twice for good measure, brings them back and goes to bed.

    Next morning, he wakes to find the sheep still just standing around. One
    more try, he tells himself, and proceeds to load them up and drive them
    out to the woods. He spends all day shagging the sheep and, upon
    returning home, falls listlessly into bed.

    The next morning, he cannot even raise himself from the bed to look at
    the sheep. He asks his wife to look out and tell him if the sheep are laying
    in the grass. "No", she says, "they're all in the truck and one of them is
    honking the horn."
