Not intentionally Lucas, my mates always laugh at me when I end up getting into scrapes (not fights) when I am drunk, but it is never ever intentional.

 

I am just what we call a "pillock" over here.

 

I suppose pillock means someone who is a bit un-worldly wise and naïve and a bit of a dumbass who ends up in bother without and intention of malice XXXXX

[Steve Smith]

I can give you many examples of my misfortunes which may make you laugh

[JohnnyBlaze]

Well lets not joust Lucas, I have a lot of respect for you as a mechanic XXX

 

I would say one thing though. The Japanese have totally top trumped both the US and the Brits about getting the most power out of smaller engines.

 

The Evo 10 FQ got 400BHP out of a 2 litre lump. Yes 400!!!!!!!

 

I always thought FQ stood for something technical like Fuel injected Quantitive geometry, but it actually means....... f***ing Quick!!! I don't lie

 

Mind it had the turning circle of the moon and catastrophic turbo lag!!!! But I suppose if you are a professional rally driver hairing around then you will always have it above 6000rpm. Not much use as a daily driver though

 

Smithers

 

All in good fun Steve

 

I assure you, if we were sitting across a table talking, we'd be laughing so hard it would be difficult to keep food down

With his earlier porn talk you probably wouldn't wanna be eating anything anyway. I feel sorry for Mel Gibson.

 

Yeh Johnny but I have to get release some way, I don't want to become a Monk

So you went from monk to porn girth talk in 0.2 seconds...that's faster than ((insert whatever muscle car you like))!!!

Tell you what I will forgive you if your dear lady knows a lady friend who would like to meet a nice English man for friendship maybe more.

 

No baggage, no ex wife or kids, and a pot of cash (but don't tell her that!)

 

XXX ;) ;) :P :D :D

I'm not a big Mel Gibson fan. He always seems forced and unnatural. He never seems like the person he's playing he looks like actor acting, overacting mostly.

 

Yes.. I enjoy his films but what you just said is how I feel. Same goes to Tom Hanks.

Tom Hanks is one of those actors that is like Hollywood's "chosen one" who can do no wrong in the industry's eyes, and it's like the public has been hoodwinked into believing he's this genius who always puts in a tremendous performance instead of a hack comedy actor from the 80's.

 

I think he's very good if you like seeing the same performance over and over and over.

 

He's never rubbish. But I always feel like I am watching Tom Hanks: Movie Star and never a character.

His best films are The Burbs, The Money Pit and Bachelor Party.

 

and the Man with One Red Shoe.

I wasn't slagging off yanks really honest, maybe just the culture

 

Don't be too hard on me Johhny please, I am a sensitive soul who takes things to heart all to often :( :( :(

 

 

"Yanks aren't bad, it's the culture that's f***ed. Please don't be hard on me, I'm sensitive."

 

 

Classic.

 

Sorry JB yeah I am a nutter and proud!!!

Stick two pencils up your nose.

 

heh

XXX ;) ;) :P :D :D

You've got a wad of cash, no baggage, fast cars, property, and you're an accomplished guitarist but you can't get a woman?

 

....AND my wife & I are supposed to set you up with one while NOT telling her that you have money?

 

Any other limitation such as being blindfolded and hopping on one foot while trying to acquire said woman?

 

Would you like some chips/fries with that order?

 

You're as crazy as Mel!

Ha ha ha

 

Well perhaps I don't really want one. Sorry about the financial thing, that was rather vulgar, I have never tried to lord it. I generally park my car at the far end of the car park in supermarkets so that I don't get any abuse from people who assume that I am a flash bastard. I am not flash, just a single working class guy who has saved and invested his money over the years.

 

The Jag was 10 years old and cost me £8500 in 2009, about the same price as the cheapest new car you can buy in the UK. So anyone that calls me a wanker on the road should also do the same to someone that drives a brand new Ford Ka or Nissan Micra by their own twisted logic! ha ha

 

Yeh you are right JB, sorry for that

[Babycat]

Lethal Weapon.

[Steve Smith]

Lethal Weapon.

 

Ok film, comedy version of Dirty Harry.

 

Didn't like the start, was completely unnecessary and was completely out of context with the rest of the film. I mean if you are going to put a desperate depressed almost suicidal scene at the start it really does not work in the future scenes where Mel becomes all jokey and funny. Maybe Mel drinking and looking at his dead wife's picture with a few tears yes but NOT putting a gun in his mouth. Very bad mark for the director there

Agreed...but in reality some people are like this. They reach an end point just to have something in life turn them back around.

 

I've had that recently.

 

But yes I agree. In the context of this film, it felt very ill conceived. I only watched this recently.

I understand Segue what you say but...

 

It was just not needed for the film in the genre it was. Mel could have been shown to be a bit crazy without that upsetting scene at the start. In another film of more darkness and more grit it could have been relevant but not for this one sorry. Again just my humble opinion XXXXX

You seem to be much better these days and back to your old self taking the piss out of me! XXXXXXXX

 

Happy days my handsome friend :drool: :drool:
