Sorry Rob, I wasn't trying to be fascetious.

Sorry Rob, I wasn't trying to be fascetious.

yea i know mate - would have been easier for Fiat to approximate between the 2 thus avoiding confusion

Honestly Grimwau, I'm sorry, but it's "facetious". This is the second time today. I think you are confusing it with necrotising fasciitis.

You told Daniel that you were still jetlagged and weren't back up to speed on grammar/spelling whilst you were catching up on all the missed posts.

I guess you've caught up now and are trying to re-assert your authority, but why did it have to be on mine?

ps. At least I'm not making any excuses as to why I am a bit slack, even though it has been a long day, two people on holiday and artics full of stock can't be unloaded because the fork lifts have got a problem.

Yeah! some of us just get on with it. <insert violins playing smilie here.>

Are you Dr House or something?

 

[nottsfiat07]

Are you Dr House or something?

Is this as in short for Doctor? In which case it should be Dr. House.

Grimwau... rant much?

You know, this was one of those posts in which I thought I would never add a reply... I thought you just tightened up the bolts on wheels. That's probably why, when I had my 127, there was a bad knocking noise from the driver's side front wheel area... when I checked, all the bolts were loose. Oops.

I hope everyone has a nice day!

I want's some hen's pleas.

Whilst we're on the subject!

By now, I would have thought you'd know when I was being ironic. :shrug:

Mick, still not quite mastered that black art although the use of the apostrophe did obviously mean that there could be an alternative meaning.

Just out of interest, "Guilty or Not Guilty"

ps. why the name alteration in your quote of bhindi? Do I detect a name change coming soon?

pps. Ah! I think it might be bhindi's edit not yours, sorry. Still the new name looks good.

Pedant much?

 

[nottsfiat07]

Pedant much?

Almost constantly. Can I just add... call me 306maxi, or Daniel, Maxi sounds a bit odd. Kettle, pot, black?

Venters is going to blow soon, it's in the trees, it's coming!


Grimmy (if I can call you that) wondered what you meant about the name change, but I've read back and I hadn't noticed the nottsfiat500 thing... but strangely, I like it! But what if I trade my 500 in for a Qubo or something? Having a name that didn't pertain to your present car would be rediculous!

Mick, you know I will answer to anything, LOL. (not going to do the "late for dinner" thing)

What,...... like grimwau?

Let's call a truce on the spelling/grammar thingy, ..... well, at least with each other, you can still take everyone else to task.

No I didn't mean your name... does that pertain to a model of car I haven't heard of?

I agree to keep my smugness to myself for as long as I possibly can! I'll see it as some sort of therapy... everyday in every way I'm getting better and better.
