Thanks! Just need more liquor consumption here. I'm about to open up some Guiness and start watching A Christmas Carol. Happy Holidays all, and be safe.

 

Merry Christmas all...man I wish it'd snow!

 

Merry belated Xmas to one n all, hope you guys all had as good a time as I did with family n friends. All the best for the New Year ( in plenty of time - lol )


Ancient - thanks for the kind remarks about the Salmon dish....lol
It is really tasty and so so easy to do, all done n dusted in around 30 mins incl cooking time. If I get time I will send you a pm, If I forget pleased feel free to give me a gentle nudge. I dont seem to be able to get on quite as much these days.

04 - too late I guess, but ancient gave really good advice. Use your commonn sense really and you'll be amazed at what she'll get you thru with ease!
Please post and let us know how you got on.....pics would be good too

Rudy - your more than welcome to pop in anytime mate, around an hours notice should be fine and your dinner will be on the table for when you arrive....lol

Jim

 

Anyone seen or heard from 04? I figured for sure he'd get back to us on the progress of driving in the snow!

 

Hi all,

Got back from my trip ok. Got a ticket for speeding on the way (no snow at the time and sunny conditions). Also got another one for the tints, think its time for them to come off for good. Thanks for all the advice about driving in snow, got out of it ok. Almost had a pretty bad experience. was going about id say not even 10mph and went to stop and the car kept going. slipped on ice. Luckily i turned away just in time missing the car in front by inches, and stopped in time missing the car next to me by inches. I have to admit, i was crapping my pants at the time. On my way back it snowed by Mamouth, cudnt see further then about a few meters in front of me (Got to use my rear fogs to help others behind me see me a little better). I got a few pics of the X on ice and snow, will post when i get a chance. The X is going for a service the day after new years, so hopefully nothing new comes up.

Hope you all have a Happy New Year

 

Tell you what 04.............When you have near misses like that it really lets you know your alive.........Jeeeesh, I swear you can almost hear your heart beating.....lol
It all came out good though

Jim

 

Time to take all the deccys down..............what a right royal pain in the *** as well as making the house look oh so bare....lol
Soo glad its only once a year

Jim

 

Good to hear your alive 04! Do you have dsc on the car or not? I got my wish it snowed on my birthday! Got another a little over a foot!

 

We had a little here today as well............nothing worth talking about really, just a few inches ( I meant the snowbtw )

Jim

 

Yeah we got about 12-15 inches here on my b-day...man was it fun!

 

Don't know if it was the same day or not but I seen the pics you posted........looks great.
Any doughnuts at all?

Jim

 

No i'll have to get some though! I have to admit though I hate awd for the fact that they aren't donuts they are more like driftonuts! I took my bro's sport trac and went around my parents drive way and you can control the donut so much better! Instead with awd the fronts kind of pull you sideways! Fun nonetheless though! I have pics on my phone and video...somewhere...I'll see what I can do!

 

Great....I'll look forward to checkin them out

Jim

 

Hey Jim I looked at the video and it was like pure steering wheel and dash...no circles or anything...I'll take another one though! I did just upload a video from the dane cook rough around the edges we went to back in november...LINK...It should work I just used it...

 

Sorry mate, couldn't make much out
Just looked like a bright light surrounded by darkness and muffled noises in a biggg stadium

Jim

 

Dude - put it in reverse! [sm=badbadbad.gif]

 

Hehe, always fun to mess around in the snow! Yeah, we got a nice dose of snow here, as well. I believe we had 11" down here. Unfortunately, no time to snap pics.

I did however seem to get my DD Contour stuck in the subdivision entrance. Some wise guy in a Jeep decided to go around me since I was having a hell of time getting out. There was barely enough room to get by, but I guess he just HAD to go. (We have another entrance to the subdivision). He barely squeezed by, and next thing I know, he got stuck!!! That made my day. To see a newer Cherokee w/AWD spinning his tires next to my Contour on bald crappy Kelly-brand tires. Eventually he got out though. I just reversed and went to the other entrance.

Always fun to pop a drift on corners with the e-brake.

That's pretty nifty aquill, my bday is today! My buddy just informed me that Taco bell gives free combo meals on your bday. I never knew this, but I'm going to be all over this one!

 

Happy birthday ancient!!! [sm=groupwave.gif]

I can see you now at Taco Bell................Oi, its my birthday, feed me, NOW!!....lol


Jim

 

Thanks Jim.

Aquill, Pistons game...wahhhhh! They're up right now...

Best birthday present would be the stones ripping the celtics a new one!!
