Mr Sam Posted September 18, 2006 Report Posted September 18, 2006 so i pop off down to the fish shop park up and theres a small gathering of 12-14 year old males on shabby mountain bikes and in blazers small boy: is that an automatic me: nope small boy: ill give you £75 for it me: nope, eleven undrd 4 speed small boy: do you mean hun-der-ed? me: yes (i resisted the "its a bit faster than your bike mate!! *slap* *slap* ) i had to smile, dout they had a clue what on earth my little fiesta was, just that it sounded rather mean and "automaticcy"
perry Posted September 18, 2006 Report Posted September 18, 2006 blazers ! blimey the chavs round yours must be a bit posh theres a few phrases that i like to use on these people " your mum told me to tell you its bath time , she also told me im your daddy , im your daddy , give it to me harder , dont stop im coming " or if your in a hurry " youl never amount to anything "
Jimsiss Posted September 18, 2006 Report Posted September 18, 2006 both good responses perry, or you could just smoke the tyres and then wheelspin away

ZetecVan 2.0 Posted September 18, 2006 Report Posted September 18, 2006 There are some lads who mess around on their bikes round here. Most of them (five of them) live next door. Their dad owns a Triumph motorbike shop in York. If I ever go out to tweak the mapping they always stand around watching. They usually ask if the bullet hole stickers on the back window are real. The other day this lad I'd not seen before came up, and he said when he heard it he thought it was a motorbike. Him: What are you doing? me: (with laptop on the passenger seat, messing with the numbers) 'Tuning it'. Him: Next question: Does it have a turbo? Me: No.
