Admin Vista Posted March 4, 2010 Admin Report Posted March 4, 2010 Absolutely, a good engine builder is a good engine builder regardless of race, sexual orientation, or religious beliefs.............................I might think twice about asking her out on a date though
escort21 Posted March 4, 2010 Report Posted March 4, 2010 Ive go a nice 1700xflow built by Terry hird(now Terina) in my shed, should got well(the engine that is)
FredTransit Posted March 4, 2010 Report Posted March 4, 2010 I didn't read/hear bout this, but you have to be pretty sad to knock somebody co they have changed gender. I will have to have a word with her, cos I know all about being mistaken for a bloke!
escort21 Posted March 4, 2010 Report Posted March 4, 2010 Its a good read, read some of the comments http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/ne ... doris.html
rob-loves-osf Posted March 4, 2010 Report Posted March 4, 2010 thats a pretty sad thing happening there in that sun news paper.. If the open public didnt give us the freedom and choice's that we make.. then who are we to judge? as for the OP i say "good on ya as you felt that's what you wanted!" most folk dont even think twice about how others may feel the business well.. why should a simple OP cost a business to fail(although as the article says the economoy is nackered at the minute. but still... having an OP shouldnt push customers away. an engine is just an engine! if that person knows how to do it correctly and how you want! then take the opportunity with both hands.. wouldnt you? she/he has more chance of breaking a nail than you coming out with a duff engine :lol: Rob
