  1. ….laughing and smiling on a Club post site - who is this, outrageous, intruder ? 😲. again, sorry about the gag’s, Gang, but they are in-built in me . ☹️. joined the agency 2 year’s ago as a volunteer Driver. I often have to attend many of the agency’s Social Club (SC) location’s throughout The Scottish Border’s (about 9). my task, depending on the roster, is to collect pensioner’s from their home’s and jet them in to their nearest SC for 9.30am for breakfast. then collect at around 2.00pm for their return home. session’s take place 2 time’s per week per SC ( cost to a member is £10 - include’s a nice lunch - many member’s attend twice per week - nearly £1k per annum (😲) - mostly because they live alone and this is the only chance, in their live’s, to speak to someone - sad,eh! ☹️. incidentally, did you know if you were a Spanish Pensioner, currently, you would receive (euro equivalent) £2.250 per month = £29.250 pa 😲 ! max. in The UK, ex British Empire Ruler, as a State Pensioner you will, currently, receive £884 per month = £11.492 pa…………word’s fail me….☹️ Gang Welfare Message: take my advice, as your Leader - if your not yet 50 save into a private pension fund + make AVC’s ( Additional Voluntary Contribution’s ) to your Employet’s existing Pension Fund ! if your over 50 make even more payment’s into your Pension Fund’s ! …..it’s too late to move to Spain now - your going to be screwed retiring in The UK !! 😲 ☹️ 😲 rant over. typically, during these SC session’s member’s are encouraged to play games, knitting, jig-saw’s even listen to local musician’s etc - the main underlying theme is to get the isolated pensioner to become invoved with other member’s - all a good cause. one day, last year I mentioned to the manager of one SC - ‘all the activities you lay on, Caroline, are so good and engaging’ (their is a long list of authorised activiti’es from the agency). ‘ you know, the one element that is missing is - laughter ?’ ‘your right, Anthony’ she said. ’just supposing I put together a little, say 90 minute, one man performance to include some comedy and brain teaser question’s - just to keep them alert and involved ? - but, Caroline, this is only an idea, remember - keep it under your hat, ok ?’ 2 day’s later, her husband called me ( manager of another SC) and said ‘could I do my gig for his member’s the following week ?……………..😲 whaaaaat ! it is only an idea….😲. the rest, as they say, is history. have now done a string of gig’s across The Border’s -they can’t have been that bad as have been asked for return visit’s ! 🙄🙄. have been told a Britain’s Got Talent (uk tv show) scout is looking for me…🙄 try these brain-teaser’s: if your uncle’s sister is NOT your Aunty - who is she ? (pm me for answer 🙄). a river 200 yard’s wide - dog on one side, owner on the other. no bridge’s, no boat’s to cross said river. dog owner whistles the dog to his heel - dog arrive’s at owner’s feet, near instantly, wagging his tail ! ok, dog’s feet are damp………..but how ? 😲 😲. answer - next post -if I remember……. anthony
  2. ….many, many moon’s ago I purchased, covertly, a very rare prototype vehicle from the Rover Head Office - Design Department in Coventry ! 🤫. a failed project but million’s invested - never even released to the, then, media - even now the design is not listed in the automotive history book’s ! 🤔. the plan was to design and build the then entry level Austin Allegro but upgrade the interior and some external piece’s to reflect the quality image of the top Rover executive / premium saloon of the time ! 😲. ……….the name selected ? ………..Allegover ! 🤪 😃 relax, Gang, shall be leaving soon - promise ! anthony
  3. ….she, him, other, sadly, is wasted on me, Malcolm ! ☹️. I just don’t do the mileage anymore, ( more time spent cleaning than driving ! ), so difficult to justify ! ☹️. (11k in 3 year’s). your right, the W123 doe’s not come close - a distant, but in it’s day, leading edge technology - better precision assembled than a Rolls - Royce ! anthony ….used to own a very rare 1957 Roll’s - Canardly ! 😲 would roll down one hill and canardly get up the next one………! 🤭
  4. ….back again, so soon…! ☹️🙂 was just idly thinking…….in 18 day’s this is Post No: 115 ( average 6 per day 😲) - now that is a ‘post barrage’ ! 🤪. 1. have never before written a ‘post’ - in my life ! 😲. ( my First Lexus, too ! ). 2. I believe you, The Gang, have, seriously, let me off lightly ! only a very, very few of you have challenged / questioned me on subject’s I have ‘created’ - was expecting a lot , lot worse ! let me put it this way, as I fast approach The Final Curtain: throughout my contribution’s, as a newbie, I have felt it was like flying a Lancaster / B 17 during the night / day in WW2 on a mission to cross Holland and Germany to attack Berlin with my ‘post’s’ (🙄) ! ….all the flight time watching and waiting, nervously, for the inevitable flak / luftwaffe night fightet’s / day fighter’s……….except, virtually, no confrontation - whatsoever ! 😲. I thank you all, Gang, for what had been, for me, a relatively easy and so fun flight !😃 anthony ps: Malcolm, re fill-to-fill’s - now a lifelong habit! ☹️ 😳. lucky to achieve 23mpg from the 2.3 litre W123 ! ☹️.
  5. ….you must all believe my ‘ post barrage’ is nearly over - not long now ! 🙄 😃 tina video - what were you doing at 50 ? ( if you are currently less, you are only ever a few year’s away from the 50 Something Club ! 🤪 ). certainly not holding the handrail of a 54’, purpose made, extending ( by cable - not hydraulic, for smoothness ) jib - performing to a 70k+ audience in Barcelona ! yesterday (Friday) was my final agency return trip (121m) to the Edinburgh Clinic behind the wheel of my beloved year 2000 Lexus LS 400 ☹️. fuel consumption of your LS, Anthony ? I bet you are thinking ! ok,I will prove my fuel consumption for you ! 70% of the journey from where I live (A7 ⬆️) is a single lane road ☹️), say 25mph average. then a, brief, 70mph dual carriage-way (city by-pass) followed by entry to the City of Edinburgh. see my most recent Fuel Receipt below ( forgive my scribble ) - 27 mpg ! 😲 - for a 4.0 litre, 290 bhp V8 limo - how good is that ? 😍. alway’s ignore my Lexus on-board, flight deck, digital mpg display - alway’s 1 mpg optimistic. will only ever fill my car’s with Shell E5 or E10 ( Esso, Tesco, BP etc have similar rating’s - but I just believe the Big S is the best - call me old fashioned + gullible to marketing 🙄 ! ). as previously posted my LS is listed to run on E10 (how did Toyota know about Ethanol additive in the 21st Century, back in the 90’s ?). I fill E5 and E10 on alternate fill’s. my W123, of course, must only be run on E5 !. calculate mpg every time I top up ( total capacity is 22.5 gallon’s - you can calculate the litre’s 😳 ) using the fill-to-fill figures. alway’s top up at 50% level - feel’s a cheaper fill - 🙄 ! mpg have never resulted in less than 21 mpg (true) but, my longest journey, to LexTek Sheffield ( 400 mile round trip via A1/A1M ) returned…………..35mpg (true !). sale status, Malcolm ? very close now, half a dozen Member approache’s - watch this space ! 🙄. actually on topic today (😲), for a change ! hey, Gang - remember my Personal Registration Plate O Y Y 6 5 5 ( now on retention certificate ) is available, but not included with LS ? paid £550 for it in 90’s (off a 1955 morris minor 😳) - your’s for £500 - bargain dateless plate for your new Lexus LC Convertible ! 🫠 😃. …’ may the best of your past be the worst of your future’….. back soon, at nearly 5️⃣ . 0️⃣ 0️⃣ 0️⃣ View’s - you know you want me to…. anthony
  6. ….hi - all ! a little quiet today as just returned from another Edinburgh Clinic run + again, tomorrow, Friday - that’s 3 this week ! now then, listen, Gang - I need you all on the top line - you need to be best in class ! 🙄. concerning video pick me up’s: so, the Danny and The Juniors video ( now 1.392 million view’s ) doe’s not help here ! if you are down, you will go down further 😲, if you are up, you will go down ☹️ ideally, John Wines playing solo guitar to Queen’s ‘we will rock you’ on America’s Got Talent ( though he is clearly English 🙄 ! ) will have helped lift you all - a bit ! 😃 ✅. but I need to lift you all - higher ! I want you all to search ‘You’ know who: Tina Turner - better be good to me - live Barcelona 1990 70.000 fan’s, Tina is 50 (😲), if you speak Spanish you will feel at home ! 22.027 view’s in 3 year’s ). ..Watch for the handrail ( neatly avoided , initially ) centre stage. ..watch Tina switch mic’s at 2.56 from cable to remote - why ? ..watch trio take 7 sync step’s to front of stage. ..6.01 when Tina ask’s audience ‘do you want me’ ? - listen to audience response. …if, in the 14 minute’s, not a single fibre move’s in your body - you are, deffo………Ai !! 😲 enjoy ! 😃 anthony
  7. …..sadly, Malcolm, too many nice car’s to post here - probably complete another 8 View Page’s ! 😲 as a qualified ‘old git I want to, briefly, return to my last post ! I, apologise, Gang for reeling off model’s of car’s you may not, necessarily, be familiar with. born in the 60’s ? - your now in your 60’s ! 70’s ? - your 50’s ! what is an Austin 16 - a Cresta ? I show below images of both said vehicle’s: the Austin had a standard fit system that, to my extensive knowledge, no longer exist’s on any car’s in the 21st Century ! (would make an unique option today ! ). the system ? The Jackall System. a factory fitted, hydraulic, jacking system to raise the car up front or rear or all by about 2-3 inche’s ( sorry - 5 to 7.5 cms ) operated by a manual pump in the engine bay ( bigger car’s were electric powered, same as my 1955 4 litre Vanden Plas ( Dutch- prounounced Plass, not Plar - the champagne Moët & Chandon is Moett not Moay 🙄 - true ! ) owner / driver saloon. (famous for their limousine’s ) The Cresta was fitted with an optional factory fit ‘valve’ 😲 medium wave / long waveband radio ( where did they go ? no fm in the 50’s, of course ! ). you will have seen, previously, the detailed Lexus Dealer service history that is recorded for my year 2000 Lexus LS 400. silly-billy, forgot to ask Lexus Edinburgh ( 08.2021 ) for previous Lexus history - they will supply, if asked, but no customer data revealed. off topic 😳 tip, gang, one of my password’s is the registration number of my first, ever, 2 car’s ! who would know them, except me ? 12 for me - 14 for you (!) character’s is a strong password ! how would a hacker work out the correct sequence of number’s and letter’s ? someone will post ‘piece of cake’ - I shall remain blissfully ignorant as I am both computer incompetent and illiterate 😳. 2002, my first Vaio 15” laptop - took me 3 day’s to work out how to open the lid !😳 😲. you have all heard the phrase ‘buyer’s remorse’. you know the feeling, you buy a seriously big ticket item - then feel seriously guilty and get cold feet - have you made the best decision, is it too late to change your mind ? 😲. if I signed up, now, and became welded in to a 40 year mortgage - serious remorse would follow 😲 😲 ? well, gang, I’m now suffering the reverse condition -‘seller’s remorse’ ! - am not sure I want to sell my car, now !😳 yesterday, was social centre day, have to collect 3, elderly ladie’s and run them in to a local community centre - then return them home, after lunch. was sitting in my year 2000 Lexus LS 400, in the driver’s seat, idly surveying the interior. cannot believe the totally unmarked leather interior is nearly 24 year’s old ( let alone 170k+ wear and tear mile’s ). felt I was sitting in a new car in a Lexus showroom ! this really is a sensational car - even in 2024- few people have ever seen one ! (certainly none of my mot engineer’s ! 😲. my W123 just doe’s not come close ! looked down at the key lock between the fuel flap and boot release. you know, in nearly 3 tear’s had never pressed the barrel- terrified it would not release thus no access to fuel or boot 😲 ! soddit, press it it locked up 😲, cautiously, inserted the valet key, the shaft would not even fit in. round to the boot lock - exactly the same effect - so all correct ! entered remote key into internal lock, phew, barrel ejected - key work’s ! ( never use remote key to open boot lock - why? - because I worry about metal fatigue, imagine if the shaft sheered off ! 😲 😲 😲 😲 ! the boot release key on remote work’s ok. …….back soon, gang…. anthony
  8. ….have I had many car’s in my time, you ask ?….. my fist car was a 1948 Austin 16 at the age of 17 - swapped it for an 8mm- cine-camera (cost £25!). second was a 1955 Vauxhall Cresta at 18 ! @ 19 fell in love, and purchased, a 1955 Cadillac Fleetwood Convertible in white with white interior (£150) ! gridlock in, crowded, Croydon High Street, retracted power hood, brought every pedestrian to a standstill, gawping in utter astonshiment-1963 🙄 ( mono image below ). there followed a stream of cars including 2 further Cadillac’s. back in the 90’s I bought a white Cadillac Seville (see image’s)-the interior was bright scarlet trim - just like a ladie’s (?) boudoir ! 🫣. guess who I sold it to you ? remember the late Max Bygraves ?, lived in Bournemouth nearby. my 3rd Cadillac (90’s) was an early 60’s Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz Convertible 7.2 litre 150 bhp ? 😃 ! ( 20 year’s earlier was very close to buying Diana Dor’s ( remember the blonde bombshell ? ) bright yellow duplicate ). found this one in a workshop - £15k just spent on repair’s to pass mot !? I paid £3.500 for it (new reg no)!! note, optional show grill. you can only keep a car’s reg if it has an mot - check the number plate to be retained ! a fair investment I think ! 😲 (see image’s). love old yank’s ! note my 1986 5.0 litre mustang hard top, mine was black on grey. very last of the carb model pre fuel injection. the fastest car Ford had made to that date pre injection !,😲. 4 speed manual - necessary to wear brown trouser’s when holding 2nd gear ! 😃🙄 the Chevrolet Silverado pick-up was 5.7 litres ! the entire rig was 56’ long - on a normal car licence !? 😲 brought the house down every where we travelled ! only sold it in the end because alway’s queue’s of curious caravan site camper’s wanting to see inside. one compete side extended out under power! some additional ( 4 album’s ! ) image’s of so many other car’s and bike’s I have owned ! and many more. + all the new Company Car’s I have chosen! must be well over 100 vehicles over 62 year’s - enjoy - I certainly did !! Mercede-Benz 560 SEC - check plate I bought fot her, him, other - nice ! anthony the blue S Class 5.0 W140 reg I bought - BIG(6) BAY ( my initial’s ) - left on car when sold, felt such a t****r driving it - lesson learn’t. ☹️

  10. …..hi - Gang ! will reduce my incessant, dail ‘post barrage ‘ today !! 😲😃 remember, I explained early on, I am a Community Driver for a well known care and protection agency ? last summer, was deployed for 6 months as a frontline cancer car team driver - only the on-going logistic’s lead to my standing down. continue as a driver but only local task’s, since. have alway’s been on stand-by at 24 hour’s notice to stand to in the event of a no show cc driver. guess what ? called last evening - could I take a patient to the Edinburgh unit, tomorrow ? - of course ! guy’s, the job is so rewarding and one is genuinely helping patient’s arrive, on time, in, my case, in total comfort in my Lexus LS 400 - you get to meet so many interesting people - ( stone mason today ) ! hopefully, none of my Gang will never have to visit a radio-therapy unit - but those that do will know, typically, you have to attend for 5 week’s, 5 day’s per week at the same appointment time, every single day - imagine ! to ensure regularity the NHS has it’s own driver’s + the availability of my (?) agency driver’s ! if you have the time, Gang Member’s, do consider the position - fiscal reward ? yes, you will be reimbursed, - no secret, here - at 0.45 pence per mile. magic if you run a Lexus CT ! …..your Leader shall return - sooner rather than later, inevitably ☹️ anthony

Malcolm, we know, has 3 car’s. on the surface I have one car + one hobby aircraft. or do I ? I have been known to fib, sometime’s 😲 actually I do own a restored ( by me ) classic all-terrain vehicle. world - wide it is universally known there is Only One a/t vehicle of a total of 489 ever built that remain’s operational - that vehicle ( No 133) is in a museum in Bovingdon, Dorset. Gang, this is for your 👀 eye’s only ! do keep this to yourself - if word get’s out I will be overwhelmed with global interest !! 😲 I actually own, the most feared a/t vehicle by the Allie’s in WW2 - a late model (like my year 2000 Lexus LS 400) 1944 German Royal King Tiger 2 (No 23) heavy battle tank - fully working and in better condition than the museum example !! had it recovered from a Bavarian Forest and covertly transported, by the AA, to Scotland 10 year’s ago ! here is a picture : ( me in the turret and Karl driving, a descendant of Kurt Knispel, No 1 German WW2 tank ace - his bio copy state’s ‘rebellious personality and defiant attitude’ - remind you of someone ? ) 😲. run out of copy, run out of time - a tale to tell you, another day, maybe……………….🙁. anthony

  22. ….so sorry, Gang, need the 100 post’s before I depart ! 🙃 last year boarded an airliner as a passenger and not a pilot. alway’s turn left on boarding an airliner, like my year 2000 Lexus LS 400, will only travel 1st Class 🙄. later, sitting in a window seat I was looking down at the ground below. I remarked to my partner, sitting along side me: ‘those people down there look like ant’s!’ she lean’t over to take a look and replied ……’those are ant’s - we haven’t taken off, yet’ 🙄 anthony
