Black estate - Wellingborough - was it you?

Post by Stinkwheel »

Heading towards the embankment in wellingborough at approx 11.45 this morning 2 BX estates crossed at the traffic lights. I stared at you from our red TZD estate and it appeared you stared back at us.
its a small world isn't it :-)

I was around that way yesterday, heading past Kettering on the cursed A14. I dream of appearing in this spotted section, but alas, not to be this time. OK, well maybe not actually dream of it, but maybe think wistfully of it now and again...

One thing you can be certain of - when a woman asks you "Are you sure? I thought...", the correct answer is "No, you are right of course". This I find makes life run more smoothly.
