(02 Jun 2014, 1:42 pm)AdamY Not sure whether the following made me happy but it sure made me laugh.

While walking through Winlaton on my way to the dentist this morning I happened to bump into one of my old school friends. I explained to him that I was in a hurry but it was obvious he had something to tell me. He asked if I'd been on Facebook this morning to which I replied "No". He then proceeded to tell me that he woke up to a status this morning announcing he had died. I started to laugh and told him he looked quite well for someone who was dead.

While death is no laughing matter and should be respected, I think that's funny, like a message I once got on Friends Re - United, I had heard my best mate/partner in crime from my days in care was died, I had not heard from him since he went to Aberdeen in 2000 and lost touch from 2001 till 2011 and thought his demise could be actually have happened, hence why we lost touch...

Logged into Friends Re-United one morning and had a message saying 'Alright mate, I hear you're mourning my passing, don't worry, this is not a ghost using a computer, I am alive and well, never felt better or fitter' Big Grin

(04 Jun 2014, 3:57 pm)citaro5284 I have gone for a Seat Leon 1.4 Tsi FR in red with Tech Pack (sat nav, DAB radio and LED lights).

With Seat being part of VW, it is built on the same platform at the VW Golf.

I had the 1.9tdi on a 56 plate from new. Tremendous fun to drive and a lot of spec for your money.

Hopefully they have improved on their pre-delivery checks over the years - mine was back and forth a few times for sackless things, that should have been picked up before it even left the factory.

If they handle like they used to, you should enjoy!

Pleased about that.
Make sure nobody else does either!

I have heard of some shocking finds in food, hair, even pubes and vermin...

But Cum in a burger is a new one...

I love the quote she used

"I'm not gonna lie." McDowell said. "On birthdays and holidays I give my man a little something extra in the bedroom, you know? So when I licked the mayo off the bun, the texture was familiar."

I've had two Seats in my time - both Ibizas.

The first one was an 1.4 X-plated model bought in 2002 which lasted 4 years; the second was a 1.2 06-plated model bought in 2008 which lasted 5 years. I had very few problems with either model so, overall, I have no complaints about Seat.

Very smart looking motors. One of my mates had a Cupra K1 for a while, and it was rapid to say the least.

We got to do graffiti at college today and it was great fun. Smile

Should mention we did this on boards, as I don't think the college would be too happy if we used the walls. Big Grin

Do they teach that in house? Or get a pro in to do it?

Sunderland Council have a scheme, where that they get a youth project in to graffiti the underpasses in Washington. Looks quite smart actually.

Some guy came into our school a year or two ago and selected individuals who were good at art and interested in the project were invited to learn how to do graffiti.

They started off on boards, and then they did a wall opposite the library inside one of the buildings and a wall in the Dining Hall. Will try and see if I can find a few pics tomorrow, if anyone is interested. Does look really good.

Expect it'll be packed, but the buses should be good at least!
