A family friend (all grown up now) he used to go to the same school that i went to (finished before i got there)

But he tells the story of how him and a whole heap of blokes picked up a VW Beetle carried it 100m over a grass footy yard and plonked it behind a whole heap of dense tall shrubland completely out of sight :lol: :lol:
gee that would have been funny

i dunno what became of it
but it would have been a good laughing topic in the end

Poeee's dad and a few of his mates on the last day of high school lifted his gym teaches beetle through the doors of the gym. You see, you have to lift it on it's side to get it through!

They were made to take it back out, hehehe.

My mum used to own a mini. For reasons I dont understand, she got four guys to pick it up and put it on the footpath. I think the street was flooding or something, and she couldn't get the car to move. I duno.

Slightly of topic:
A mate of mine was on the bus coming home in London. He saw out of a window a real poseur, in a black Porsche convertible (left hand drive) parked on The Strand. Bouffant hairdo, yakketty yak on the cellphone, thinks everyone is looking at him, wishing they were him.








He had no idea someone had written, in huge letters using bright red lipstick on the right-hand side of the car "_ _ _ _" (Imagine the letters T U N & C rearranged to make a word)

h0nk: Im no lawyer but considering the litigation laws these days you never know. For instance if someone breaks and enters your house then hurts himself inside (ie trips over a rug or something equally stupid) you can actually be up for damages - quite completely ridiculous but thats the way it goes - so maybe if you put razor wire on your car you may be placing an undisclosed hazard to the public.. or the jocks at your school :)

Bah, that's easily fixed, just place a sign on the window "Warning - This mini has razorwire fitted at all possible lifting locations" :wink: The only problem are the idiots who just have to check to make sure :lol:

Or get a car alarm fitted with motion detectors and piezos. I used to have one in my honda and when it went of the alarm was tolerable, but the high pitched piezos drive you insane in under 2 secs. You either need to get away from the car or shut the thing off, quickly.
