Yeah,i think its aimed at people over 18 due to the amount of swearing!When i said older i really meant older than children,and hey all you old guys out there dont forget your only as old as the woman you feel!!!

Ah - all is clear! (I think)
Surely, though, this particular form of unwelcome illiteracy is practised by the <b>under</b> 18s more, because we stopped teaching our beautiful language in schools?
I must say that, apart from Kenny's opening lines, cleverly disguised, I have never actually heard any swearing on SP.
Or, should we say 'strong language' as the euphemistic PC halfwits would have it. ;)
So, mat or matt - did you sort out the pics?

Yes,i installed office xp to make the photo smaller,then uploaded it to flickr which seems to be the best place due to the size of file you can upload,then its just a case of getting the [img] right so it shows properly in my signature.I hope to get one of my 405 soon then im happy,[:D] Thanks to all who helped this timmy(timmah) out but i would like to see more photos in other peoples signatures just to see what your all driving[:0]

For resising images you can't beat Irfanview you can get it at http://www.irfanview.com/ it's free and only a small download but be sure to get the (bigger download) plugins.

Actually the Dyane is a belter too. Went looking for one for yonks and nothing surfaced then I bought a BX to play with - thats now providing support for Daves BX.
Think Im going to stick with my ZX and Xant - and out of the two I prefer the ZX.

They are and were since PSA virtually the same thing, Matt!
Except that identical models cost less for Cits than Pugs, and sometimes have extra bits on Cits(<i>cf</i> ZX)!
Not allowed 3 cars? [:0] You will really have to get a bigger house - this is no good at all to carry on in such a way! [;)]

They are a very ordinary car - you would not look at a ZX twice, but extremely reliable, superb roadholding, and a damn good car. The turbo diesel is <b>very</b> impressive.
There was a nice Y reg Dyane for sale up at Kelso - Ros & Duncan. Bleu Lagune like ours, and had a lot of work done on it.
