andyh1302.bsky.social @andyh1302.bsky.social · 06/10/2026It never has but for be going full gammon over a motorcar I'll never be able to afford either buy or run seems a rather daft way to live. I know my place and it's in a poverty spec Italian city car. 010
andyh1302.bsky.social @andyh1302.bsky.social · 06/10/2026I have no opinion because it's never going to be something I have to consider whether or not to buy one. 110

andyh1302.bsky.social @andyh1302.bsky.social · 03/10/2026We were there last year about a week after you and Alan had gone though and yep it's pretty awesome for car spotting. 100
andyh1302.bsky.social @andyh1302.bsky.social · 03/10/2026That's whetted my appetite for Sicilian chod spotting in 2 weeks time 👌 100
andyh1302.bsky.social @andyh1302.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Great show and nice to properly meet a few new folks including your good self 👍 011
andyh1302.bsky.social @andyh1302.bsky.social · 27/09/2026I didn't come straight home, got D ti meet me at my garage and drive me home. The sense of relief having made it there in one piece when I closed the garage door was unbelievable. Nothing wrong with the car, it ran perfectly all day. 010
andyh1302.bsky.social @andyh1302.bsky.social · 27/09/2026My drive there was quite relaxing. Drive back, different story. Listen you grade A cockwombles in your humongous wank panzers, a 55 year old lowered car isn't going to corner, accelerate, and brake like that fucking Chinese milkfloat you're sitting in 5mm from my tailpipes. 110
andyh1302.bsky.social @andyh1302.bsky.social · 27/09/2026I try not to disturb folks when they're filming, just let them carry on 🙂 010
andyh1302.bsky.social @andyh1302.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Yet another Rustival we didn't get ti chat 🤣. You did walk past us but you had your camera in and looked like you were filming. Was with dad and brother, our first day out with the 3 of us together for about 35 years. I think next time I'll be in the 500 with the future Mrs1302 so will chat then. 130
andyh1302.bsky.social @andyh1302.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Nope, that's Transaero a defunct Russian carrier. 110
andyh1302.bsky.social @andyh1302.bsky.social · 22/09/2026Sorry mate, sort of missed this due to being stupidly busy. Thanks but I think I'm probably sticking with the 500 for now as it's saving me a lot of money in tax and fuel 🤙 Hopefully see you Saturday for a catch up. 110
andyh1302.bsky.social @andyh1302.bsky.social · 20/09/2026I'll keep a closer look out next year, I want to get to more shows in either the bug or 500 010
andyh1302.bsky.social @andyh1302.bsky.social · 20/09/2026Didn't know it was on, must get to more shows next year. Anyways, that 500 is a fair bit nicer than mine. 110

andyh1302.bsky.social @andyh1302.bsky.social · 12/09/2026See, him and his mob are not in the majority they just shout the loudest. The media are not fawning over him now, they're starting to scrutinise him. Notice how he responds? Loses his shit and throws a temper. You don't win elections behaving like that, this isn't the USA. 010
andyh1302.bsky.social @andyh1302.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Don't panic, the tide is turning, they're slipping in the polls every month. I think that there are more folk in this country who would vote against him than for him. 110
andyh1302.bsky.social @andyh1302.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Farage couldn't hack being PM, it would mean actually having to do work and being under constant scrutiny. He's in this for the grift, making people angry lines his pockets. As an MP he's about as useful as Stevie Wonder's binoculars. 130
andyh1302.bsky.social @andyh1302.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Ooh another @samuelmace.bsky.social acquisition. Is it the one posted in our messenger group? 100

Little brother (46) is their incredible step dad, he's the only dad they've ever known. I intend to do the best job of strange uncle that I can. 020

andyh1302.bsky.social @andyh1302.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Best damn job I ever had. 5 years ago today Lawmans of Kettering closed the gates for the last time. Myself and another driver stayed until the very end, we were the guys who turned the lights out. 14 great years. I still miss the place and probably always will. 040

andyh1302.bsky.social @andyh1302.bsky.social · 15/08/2026No mate, I didn't fancy it tbh. Hardly driven the Beetle since Rustival because the roads have got so bad in the last year it's almost undriveable. Will be at next Rustival in September, whether I keep it after that is 50/50 at the moment. 100
andyh1302.bsky.social @andyh1302.bsky.social · 15/08/2026Just been and put the Beetle away in it's winter garage. Wasn't using it, the road surfaces have got that bad that I can't use it until I can get it in somewhere for suspension work to get the front lifted. 010
andyh1302.bsky.social @andyh1302.bsky.social · 13/08/2026Can relate, work today was fucking unpleasant to say the least. 010

And no, it can't be the water pump because the heaters are working so the coolant is definitely circulating. Temp gauge normal too. 020
andyh1302.bsky.social @andyh1302.bsky.social · 03/08/2026Yeah but it was a sod to park so probably best rid. 110

andyh1302.bsky.social @andyh1302.bsky.social · 03/08/2026New thermostat fitted to the weapon of mass disappointment. I now have to go and get a new Jubilee clip to fix the hose back on. Might have accidentally used too much force getting the old one off and mildly destroyed it. 000
