Dirty Pictures!

Well, what did you expect it would be...?! :D

Took the GTA out for a Sunday drive around the Cheshire countryside today! The roads were pretty mucky...

Couldn't put it away like that though...

Love taking the GTA out for a blast after driving the diesel all week during the dreary weekly commute. Makes it feel special again after driving an 'ordinary' car. :D

Get all those here too! My car was literally covered in sh*t when I got back. Burbled past someone on a horse. Looked in the mirror to see said horse getting a bit unrulely! Must have been my exhaust. Made a real effort to chug past as slow and quietly as possible too!

The state government here has imposed water retrictions here so you can only wash your car on the grass, between 7PM and 7AM, three days a week, and not allowed to use a hose at all on Mondays. Our dams are down to 34%, with no decent rain due in the forseeable future it seems.

But at least I don't have to dodge the manure on the road.

LOL :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

What ever next will the Government impose.
What happens if you don't have any grass, do you just park in your neighbors front garden?

No to the bathing in the front garden, but they are encouraging us to use the water from baths, clothes washing etc to be diverted onto grass and gardens, and are looking at treated sewer water for all uses. Yes, drinking included!!!

Government fountains have all been turned off, even though these only recirculate the water. The story is there is a certain amount of water lost to evaporation. They are trying to make it look like the right thing is being done.

Blimey, sounds like water is running out down there, soon you will have to drink beer all day long. :roll: :roll: :roll:
The Government will like all the taxes from that too!
