Hi
I responded to a cry for help on the DIFFLOCK forum. Bloke with an S2 diesel wondering why it wouldn't do more than 45mph. We got chatting as you do... he told me he flew a 5ft wingspan model Spitfire, use to follow the adventures of Fred Basset, and went into the hills looking for rare breeds.
I asked him what rare beasties he went looking for?
"Tigers!"
"Ah! Er, where are you"?
"Mumbai!"
I knew he was a vegetarian, so I asked if he was Hindu .... ?
Close, but he was actually a JAIN. (I done a Google Wow!) Actually, he's a very naughty boy. I asked if BLONDE jokes had spread to India. He replied that they didn't have blondes in India, but a girl in their gang had dyed her hair blonde ... but when they went swimming it was obvious that she wasn't blonde.
One day, phone rang, Barbara answered ... screamed it was Ritul calling. He was driving up the M1 (?) heading for Liverpool. Seemed very impressed with the traffic. His family make gears, and he'd come to buy a gear cutting machine.
We corresponded for a spell, but that faded away at the same rate as my PC. I must try to make contact again.
Last I heard, he was driving a 110, and his father had told him it was time he got married.
