Da-da… da da

Just checking, it is in 4-4 time isn't it?
And it would help if you could put up, down or straight arrows so we know if it goes, well, up to the next note, down to the next note or stays on the same note.
Not that I want it to be too essy for us!

 

[Stanleysteamer]

totally love this.
Put it on Nextdoor!
Does the music to it go dah, dah, dah, dah........or what?

 

[Stanleysteamer]

Tis a feem tune

Not Assneders then as there is no boosh, boosh boosh boosh etc at the begninning.
I am at a disadvantage then as I don't watch soaps.
though I spose could be a feem toon to anything.
Question time even!

In the end he lost about 50% of his dosh spent on it. How can people live like that?

'Cos they don't do it for making money. They do it for making a TV programme and rake it in from the advertisements.

Evidence to the contrary is in your first line. Can't kid us -------

.......that we got up ultra early as, well, W has to get up reely early for important stuff like going shopping at the Street factory outlet shops, "for Christmas presents". With dottir.
Oh yeah!
She asked me not to cut the top off another finger with a circular saw this time!
That is how long since she went there last.
So, enjoying the sun.

Got AVG up and running last night but boy do they want you to spend dosh and nearly don't allow you to have what you bought so cheap!
I'm going to have to try and dig up @Hippo 's old post on this as I think he told me how to get more stuff free.
@Hippo meets @kevstar meets @Stanleysteamer !!!!!
Have a good one folks!

I didn't see it from the beginning so I didn't know the ins and outs of it, but I know it cost whoever about £80/90k and they only sold it for £40k.
Mad!

Seriously, if I was going to watch a soap that would be the last miserable pile of poop I'd watch, but every now and then we catch the theme tune as we turn over for summat else to watch or are opening up the Humax box to find summat recorded.
I cannot even hum the Coronation Street toon, but you have to admit everyone knows the assenders one, tis about the most famous thing about it.

Mines screw in

My ex bought me a fancy two piece one. I never managed to play very well with it. It took me ages to realise it was bent, like the one in the vid!

Had a bust up with a boat owner today, he's full off attitude thinks hes a big hard man now hes got my back up
when he gave me the finger n told me to f off. When I asked him to move his car.
Ive said a few things I shouldnt have like the first thing......
If you stick that finger up at me again I'll snap it off He's fallen out with 4 members off staff in the yard
within the last 2 weeks im not going to put up with abuse from anyone so I put him in his place. Hes away to see the
yard owner. Oh well good luck pal..........

Hope the yard owner tells him to take his boat and shove it up his --------

Oh Jeez!
My books arrived.
the cover of the one on Art Deco cars!
My Marlin Roadster is just crying out for a little bit of modification to make it very, very similar.

Last thing I need is yet another project! But could I possibly make a hard top that would transform it to look like it?

Marlin

Yes, who the HECK did that with the spare wheel!? Just to get a luggage rack on! When I went on honey moon in mine I made a luggage rack to go over the spare which sits where this rack is but it gives you an idea!
This is what mine looks like with the soft top on, not so good!

Now for the MG Airline.

How hard could it be? And the Marlin is just a shade longer and a bit lower so the Airline look would be even more graceful!

I might have to pick Andy Saunders' brain!

The top pic (Marlin?) looks purposeful, nice flowing lines and pleasing to the eye. But the bottom pic (MG?) ---- fugly. And looks like an elephant sneezed on it

Not disagreeing with you,
BUT
applying the same principles it ought to be possible to create a really graceful hardtop to more or less go over the rear, give me a more spacious boot, or even a second boot. I think one would look a heck of a lot better than the MG, cos it's longer and lower. Also the front wheels are further forward.
Since yoread it I've edited the post and put a pic of mine in with its soft top on, which don't look too clever with the side screens zipped in, it is better with them off though.

The paint job on the MG doesn't help either!!

Is he just a fud because he owns a boat. It's not that guy that got your back up on the boat thread is it
