robbo Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 After having my last car for almost 7 years I went into the Ford garage today and came out having signed up for a new 62 plate Ford Focus straight from the factory, 1 litre, 3 cylinder engine that produces 125 bhp, hoping it will be as reliable as the last Mondeo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powerrabbit Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 3 months ago my Brothers Daugther lost her beloved ginger cat, he spent most nights out and was always back home the next morning with his nights hunt but one night he went out and never came back. Ever since 10 year old Anna has been very upset and pining for her cat and not sleeping too well so, last night my Brother dissapeared somewhere and came home with this. They've called her Molly.

Gav836 Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 does sound fun The boss is afraid of the gas axe where I work, he can use it but the fact I put a nozzle in it that can cut through 4 inches of steel scares him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
