    A family friend recounts his son's delight at training to be a vet. Overwhelmingly girls enrolled on the course. He's enjoyed being overwhelmed, year after blissful year. 

    Hehe, by contrast when I went to Uni (Real Time Systems Design), we had two girls on the course (and about about 50 guys), one was more of a lad than most of the lads and the other did a passable impression of a stereotypical movie serial killer...

    O levels, even attempted O levels were quite advanced. Who remembers CSEs?

    I did O levels for everything - except French - CSE French (I only took this as an option because it was me, my best mate and about 20 girls on the course :)), to be honest I can't remember what grade I got in French but I do remember having a laugh...

    Took her out for an ‘essential’ drive. 😀 First time out in her for a couple of weeks and great to be back behind the wheel.  These are such awesome little cars!!!

    Yeah me too.  First time in a month or more 🤔, now back under cover in the garage on the CTEK 😎

    Bloody damp weather and lockdown

     

    Not green with envy if I'm honest! 🤔

    I actually spent a little time today conditioning my leather, refreshing my dehumidifier bags and using Gummi pflege on all my rubbers.  I also use a dehumidifier in the garage which is running all of the time...

     

     

  5. I reverse in,  once my passenger side wing mirror is level with the pillar on the garage wall I know I have about 30cm behind me.  The reverse sensors back this up.  And I have some old sofa cushions attached to the wall at bumper height in case I go mad one day and ignore my own rules 🙃

    I’m currently getting little movement on price. £1850 if car had sports tips. £2200 of if it doesn’t. Being told labour is £900. Will try some other options. Seems a lot of money for what it is.

    Expensive but aurally extremely satisfying.  What price pleasure in these dark days? 🤔

    ive got cheap crappy tyres. different brands front and rear. Car handles superbly. 

    It's clearly the Driving God sat in between these crappy tyres that makes all the difference :whistle1:

    My gf recently picked #006 up which on top of PSE, SC, PASM, BOSE, FL, PA options also has the Sport Design package (front bumper and rear wing - https://tinyurl.com/y6luefxz) which is the only BE I have seen with that option.
    What's your experience - Are there any others with the Sport Design option out there?  

    Hey there, first post but a member for over 9 years!  Welcome 😃

    Nice #006 your girlfriend has picked up!  Not seen that Sport Design package on any other BE, I like the spoiler compared to standard 🤔

    polished car then took to aerodrome to try launch control for first time,works a treat 😎😎

    Yeehaa!  I love LC, I had to test mine on the Somerset levels in the past - nice hot day, sticky tyres, zero drama...

    I have played with LC at the PEC but that was in the snow so it was a bit cr*p really - no grip = no LC!

    This always makes me chuckle...
