matt buz 0 Posted March 18, 2004 Last friday, after work, I went for a pint at my local which led to me being out till the death and thus waking up with the mother of all hangovers on the saturday morning. After I woke I was stumbling round the house thinking that I had done something that I really shouldnt have. I couldnt for the life of me remember what it was. Then it dawned on me. I ran to the window and looked out............dude! WHERES MY CAR!!! Then I started to piece the night together. Rather stupidly I had let my mate borrow my car to go to london (from leeds) for the weekend. I rung him up to get it back and had a go at him for taking advantage of my drunken state. He had no sympathy for me and promptly rung me every 10 mins to let me know how fast he was going down the M1!!!! It came back on the sunday and it was exactly as i left it apart from one thing. My mate is not the slimest of lads and now the drivers seat squeaks over bad roads. I have informed him that if he is to borrow my car he is to lose a few pounds......and ask me when I am sober! One good thing has come from this though. I get use of his 1966 cherry red ford mustang convertible for 7 weeks, when he goes on his jols, this summer!!!!!! (apparently this was part of the deal for him to borrow my car...........not that i can remember this) Laters all Matt ps Stang pics attached Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted March 18, 2004 really mate, this remembering thing is far too over rated. The only thing you'll have to remember in the near future is that that little red beastie can't go round corners Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Banana Man 0 Posted March 18, 2004 I love the mk1 mustang especially in red! I'm still trying to convince my dad to flog the stag and get one as he likes em too but haven't managed to persuade him yet. Maybe I'll have try getting him really drunk and then negotiate the deal to buy one and insure me on it :wink: :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bojmobile 0 Posted March 21, 2004 That does look like a good deal - get me drunk and I'd probably end up swapping mine for a Nova or something! Thats why I try not to drink too much! :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blown 0 Posted March 22, 2004 HA! Serves you right!shud never take your car into town on Saturday night. I remember a mate of mine (who lives on a farm)who took his ride-a ratty Fiat Uno turbo if memory serves-into town,just for a quick one,which ultimately turned into one of those unforgettable nights that you can't remember the next day! His car ended up in one of his own fields buried under a haystack. He didn't find it until his old man put the forks he was using on the tractor through both doors and the front wing,whilst moving that hay.Ouch! :shock: He stopped talking to any of us for a month,although none of us can remember much about it. :twisted: :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
