What is all this nonsense?

I've just stumnled across this and am cross 'cus you think I've just been 'orrible.
That is NOT the case.

I cleared out some 'friends' as they are so quaintly called, as I was struggling to keep tabs on the monumental number that I had, as it had reached DOUBLE figures! eeek:
Far too many posts to get me nut around, so I worked out who was actually speaking to me regulary and who wasn't.
My theory was that if someone doesn't converse with you, what is the point of them cluttering my page thingy wotsit when it's difficult to follow already.
I don't like the faceache layout as it's irrational and difficult to follow imo., and they keep changing stuff too which makes me irritable. evil:

If you feel let down by me, I'm sorry. No offence was intended. Simply send me a request and I'l re-instate you. Sweet. razz:

The car to be used on the rally has caused me mucho problems jumping out of 2nd., so much so I decided to 'block it' (auction)

This however has been unsuccessful, as only one bid for £150 was received. Banghead
I could get more than that for scrap, and wouldn't have to pay commision either.

It is currently sitting in the auction compound awaiting removal / collection with now a 4" deep lake in the front passenger footwell apparently. eeek:

I don't know what to do with it next tbqh.
Too good to scrap (apart from the gearbox) and it's got 10 months mot too.

Would there be a market for it in Cyprus I wonder?
We could drive it there, like a mad max roadtrip type thing. 8)

Could this be a possible solution for the disposal of this fine condition  but seemingly unwanted unloved 1991 Citroen ZX 1.4 with virtually full service history with a jumpy 2nd gear and fitted (currently) swimming pool in the n/s/f footwell?
If it's going to be worth a decent amount, I wouldn't hesitate driving it out there.
I can feel problems lurking with importing red tape nonsense though. whistle:
