If you are buying beer which has to be cold, you are buying the wrong beer !!!

Errrm ! I don't really know. When it was first proposed they said that the kits would be available in every supermarket, tabac etc. Due to supply problems ( either true or not ) not all of these establishments could fulfil their commitments so the argument went " I went to buy some , but none...

I worked in a builders yard in 1985 and the boss had a brand new Audi Quattro , work was a bit slack so he asked the labourer to wash the car. A bucket of soapy water and sponge later , and off he started, all was going well until the sponge snagged on the door handle and tumbled across the...
