Del, what did you think of Rock & *****the other night?
I thought they did a really good job of it. |
|
By:
yeah i thought it was pretty good.
it wasnt supposed to be really funny like many expected but for true fans i think it was a good job.. |
|
By:
Yes I thought the approach of not having it so funny worked out really well. If it had tried too hard it probably would have come out a bit like the Green Green Grass, but as it was I thought it was great viewing.

whats wrong with £600 cars?
no monthly payments and if something costly breaks u can just scrap it. if u get a few years out of it u usually get a few hundred back. unless u got a company car or are loaded , wouldnt have monthly car payments about me. have a nice scenic at the minute , £500 and is a cracker. one before that was a £150 TD rover. that was the best car i ever had , local cop had it marked and had to sell it , broke my heart :( had it for 3 years and put tyres on and always passed the MOT. |

Oldest trick in the book
Drive up and look over a Really nice car ..ask if its got a Tracker system fitted (if NO..proceed )... ask can you test drive it "round the block"... say thats my car there (obviously as youve just driven up in it).. say "you hold the keys as security til I come back "...and you drive off in their lovely shiny new car with Good panels, engine, windows, electrical parts , tyres, wheels , etc ..straight to a "knocker" scrappy you know ....its broken down inside 2 hours .... :0 Meanwhile guy at house with the stolen car + keys you drove up in , begins to worry after 20 minutes , agitated after 30 minutes , after 40 minutes drives the local streets in his mates or wifes car looking for you in case youve broken down or had an accident ..then phones cops after 1 hour .. cops check the left behind cars Reg on DVLC another 15 minutes ...after 1 hour 20 minutes everyone realises its a scam ...but by now the expensive car is already unrecognisable down the scrappy ... as first things off are the reg plates +window glass + engine + little ID plates ....and you have pocketed £XYZ 's depending on how good the car is + how rare the parts :-) THIS IS NOT AN INVITATION TO BREAK THE LAW BTW , JUST SHOWING WHAT "CAN" HAPPEN IN THE BIG WORLD OF EARNING A GOOD LIVING THROUGH A COUPLE OF HOURS OF SCAMMING ... :-) |
