Looks like a students paradise! Yet somehow cool...

Love the artifacts, and the website looks cool incedentally. Several cars I'd love to own, yet it always comes back to practicality. Mate of mine has a Plymouth Roadrunner he's recently restored (having owned it for around 20 years), and it was on show at the Classic Car show last year. He allowed me the privelage of sitting in it on the stand, and I was surprised (and a little disappointed) how little room there was in such a massive car!

love the Mk1 GTi's by the way.

Random is my middle name! Thank you
I'm nessie btw and that is my home too. Most of the randomeness arrived with me from Brighton where I lived before but we are certainly accumulating more because now there is more space to fill. We got some traffic lights at a car boot sale recently which will be amazing when all cleaned up and working again.

Heh, heh. We get those at our local town whatchermercallits as Russell Davies is a resident.

Keep forgetting to drag the Grandchildren along to see them (it would curtail my networking activities and reduce my street cred).
