How wrong can one weekend go?

[Nyx]

Been away to see a very good friend (Neil) in Ewloe ( near Chester) wicked weekend till i came to leave....

Being a silly female I left my stereo on when i got there and didn’t find it for a longgg time so when i came to start my car today.... Was so dead!

So got up and ready to go.... Had snowed so much... and was still snowing.... so stood out in the freezing cold trying to jump the car... and nothing!

I hadn’t renewed my breakdown cover ( oppies) but Neil had cover so he called and out they came... in two mins it was started and all was well.... or so i thought.

Got ready said my good byes and headed off in the snow (which I hated) only to find... the only route i know closed off due to the snow :bang:

The diversions sent me god only knows where... up hill and down dale on the tiniest roads I’ve ever seen.... Then what.... A bloody pheasant runs straight out and stands in the middle of the road in front of me.... Cars coming towards me and a vectra way to close up my ass... so unfortunately the pheasant lost its life (not sure if I should of tried to stop or move, but didn’t fancy a car in my back end sorry Mr pheasant)

I thought there my bad luck would end.. But no.... half way home... I go to itch my neck.... OMG I left my fav ear rings there!!! gutted I tell ya!!

So how was everyone else’s weekend???

Needless to say my breakdown cover is now sorted!

Not that unlucky - last time I hit a pheasant in the Cinq it took the numberplate with it. Custom jobby it was, too.

Was picking feathers out of the engine bay for weeks.

Oh dear! Hope you are now tucked up cosy and warm with a cuppa, battery well charged and that you haven't left your stereo in

I've also ran over a pheasant, well more of plucked it our of the air with a Tipo, was convinced it was going to come through the screen. Was a ruddy great big thing too. I've heard if you run one over and go back to collect it you can be done for poaching - if you collect one that has been ran over by someone else that's ok though.

LOL not tonight - they're only little at this time of year. Come mid-summer and they're flying pigs!

 

[thefishdude]

actually stopping and picking up trhe pheasent to cook is agaisnt the law i believe you can pick it up if someone else kills though

That reminds me to try to find somewhere to make a 80/90mm diameter elbow to fit the air filter to the throttle body hose.
