I think we'll leave the Furry dice at home, it might get in the way of the 2 camera's !

Greetings from Dave's co-driver! Yeah, it's a tongue-in-cheek homage to priesthood, thats for sure - but hell, Dean Martin and Sammy Davis played an alcoholic ex-racing driver and degenerate gambler in the movie! Love the Father Ted/furry dice idea! Keep them coming - your sources of inspiration will be rewarded in heaven!!! The Bruce on http://www.daveandbruce.com

Thanks Kin, New tyres - Defo brake Pads - Mintex Performace Pads Fitted Floor Jack ? Would that not be to heavy? New plugs - It's a Diesel Check door seals - Never thought of that, good point.
While I'm at it would elara.ie be interested in sponsoring us ? http://www.daveandbruce.com/CorporateSponsorship.aspx Thanks Dave C. |

You can get light weight floor jacks. Better than that piece of dung you get from BMW. I don't have one in my car, then again I don't have a spare wheel. At the moment all advertising revenue is only going to be industry related. I have been relieved from advertising duties also, I am only allowed to bring in money not spend it. Edited by Kin Mak |
