18" wheels... quote of the week.
« on: 24 July 2006, 16:12 »
This tickled me, thought I'd share it:

A kid at my school said "I like your wheel trims... are they the ones that carry on spinning when you stop?"

(glad they can spot a decent car when they see one though)

Yes. I became a teacher a couple of years ago. My last job was a liaison engineer based at LandRover working for a Japanese company called DENSO. (air-con, nav, engine management) That was a piece of piss compared to this...

As a teacher you've got an obligation to promote 'positive values' and to have 'high expectations, respect and commitment'...

We need to get to the kids early, and guide them in the right direction... lead by example. If we don't, we'll end up as a nation of Vectra and Picasso drivers.

Get that Golf GTi asap... you know you want to.

I teach ICT and Business Studies. GTi will be bought in September to help the impact of going back to school after six weeks off!!!!  Can't wait to get my grubby hands on one.  Anyone know which will be the best VW dealer to go to...Brighton or Chichester?
