That's impressive knowing where the door locks are on a sierra. Also knowing fords erratic central locking of the late 80s and early 90s it may well have locked itself. My dad's g plate taxi went nuts over every speedhump.
Damned if I can remember how he did it now, but he managed it.

I scored very low on the autie test. I’m cheerful, happy, confident, like meeting new people, chatty and largely sociable. What the fuck am I doing on this forum?

Of course, now they want to know how much it cost but I just blamed senility and can't remember. I 'think' it was about £14 including Evri delivery.

My good deed for the day...
Sounds like you’re channeling your inner weewee. You didn’t pour petrol into their tank while they weren’t looking as well did you? 😉

:lol: it must be that as it can't be his mate "he cares for" to get into a Toon match on the fly because they're away to Brentford tomorrow.

Doing a run after chicken fried rice, coke and in 22 degree heat wasn't my best idea ever.
I'm fucked.
