Do you think there is too many disabled car parking spaces in supermarket stores etc.. ? Or should there be more?

If you have seen this on Yesterday have you noticed how few Honda's there are? Is it becasue they are too bad/good to be on there or that Honda owners don't part with them????

To all our Honda Members may I wish you all a very Merry Christmas 🧑‍🎄 and a Happy, Trouble Free Motoring New Year 🎉 Drive Safely Everyone and please Don't Drink and Drink Best Wishes to All for 2024 BAZZER RN1

Always thought this sumed up things very well when it first appeared.... Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, Common Sense, who has been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was, since his birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape. He will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as: Knowing when to come in out of the rain; Why the early bird gets the worm; Life isn't always fair; and Maybe it was my fault. Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies (don't spend more than you can earn) and reliable strategies (adults, not children, are in charge). …

This is just no good for me at my time of life, I now need a few strong drinks and a lay down in a dark room!! After logging on this afternoon the first thing I see is an ad for Ann Summers!! I can vaguely remember most of it where it went and even how to remove it but what came next has completely gone!!!! 🤣

I've been a member of the forum for a year this month and I've learnt alot about the Great Honda car and tips on getting the best from them. I'm not very knowledgeable about the workings of the heart of a motor but I know someoene here will always offer sound advice, so thanks everyone especially Trevor and RN. I've been missing a fair bit recently new laptop with Windows 11 my old one was Windows 7!! Its not been easy, I'm sure with these things they get to a point where it's at it's best but some bright spark has to try and change things just because they need to sell new items. Bring back XP !!!! Alan

Time to reminisce… Toys and Games Many of the classic toys and games that children are still playing with today were first created in the 1960s, and we found plenty of ways to fill our time without all the gadgets that are around now. Etch a Sketch The Etch a Sketch was one of the most wanted toys for Christmas 1960 and many of us spent hours trying to create masterpieces with those two fiddly dials. Lego Lego in the 60s required a lot more imagination than it does today. We didn't get detailed instructions and film characters. We just got coloured blocks that could be anything we wanted them to be. Mecca…

Phones you can carry around with you, that take pictures and can make video calls. When we had our first telephone connected in our home I was about six years old. It was SO exciting! Our number was 9 as we were the ninth telephone in the village. It was heavy, black and was connected to the wall in one corner of our lounge. Not everyone had a camera and now we walk around with phones in our pockets which can take pictures too – as well as a multitude of other amazing things! I remember fantasising with my brother and sister about phones of the future. ‘What if you could see the person you were talking to as well! Just imagine!” Now children are growing up with Skype…

My best car ever, the oldest car I'd ever purchased at 15 years old now hitting her 20th years

A major hurricane (Hurricane Shazza) and earthquake measuring 5.8 on the Richter Scale hit Essex in the early hours of Monday with its epicenter in Basildon . Victims were seen wandering around aimlessly, muttering "Faaackinell". The hurricane decimated the area causing approximately £30 worth of damage. Several priceless collections of mementos from Majorca and the Costa Del Sol were damaged beyond repair. Three areas of historic burnt out cars were disturbed. Many locals were woken well before their giros arrived. Essex FM reported that hundreds of residents were confused and bewildered and were still trying to come to terms with the fact that something int…

My Dear friend, Or may I call you BAZZER RN you don’t know me but a mutual friend passed your name to me, you may however have heard of my tours going from place to place speaking of the peril of drinking and fornicating with loose women. On my tours I have been greatly helped by David a poor wretched soul who had lived a life of drinking and loose women, he would sit on the stage, swearing, breaking wind, and exposing himself thus showing the curse of such a wicked life. Unfortunately David died a few weeks ago and I wonder if you would like to take his place? My blessings go with you The Very Reverend Father To…
