Over here it's some sort of weird bet on a series of horse races!!!
Semi Geriatric ex-Honda mechanic and MOT tester (UK version of annual inspection). Garage full of "projects" mostly 500/4 from pre 73 (no road tax in UK).

Remember "Its always in the last place you look" COURSE IT IS YOU STOP LOOKIN THEN!

Hey now, we Northerners are people, too!  Maybe not as genteel as you folk, but I keep up on my manners.  In fact, just the other night I held the door for a lovely, large-ish lady leaving the Mint Bar.   She was holding an ice-pack to her knuckles, muttering something about "never been so insulted..."  Curious what that was all about.

Cheers,
