im going to have mine rebuilt next winter if i can keep on the :smoke:
and have some nice high comp pistons fitted by mr mon i hope :D
i think it would be better to have nine redone as i know the engine instead of getting an unknown and untested one

Just put cranberry sauce* in a ring halfway down each fag; then you'll stop smoking at that point as they'll go out.
Move the cranberry nearer the end each week.

Cold turkey and cranberry sauce are a logical combination, although no-one knows why, except Marlboro Man, who hasn't been on here for ages.







*(mint sauce won't work, it has to be cranberry. Otherwise you'll just get a craving for Menthols).
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.
