Mac is a class act with twisted funny humour . You will get used to it or go mad trying to understand it

Kev that VTR is not as good as mine even with the polish.

You are winding us up? If my life was that sad that I have to scour the roadsides for old buckets and take them home, knock out plaster and clean it up for washing my bike I think I would end it all
A bucket costs a couple of quid, just buy one, if you are that desperate for a bucket then you obviously need to cancel your broadband subscription and not bother with forums and treat yourself to a bumper set of buckets I can't believe you actually recommend we do that.

Yes I was.
When you read it, did you not see the bit ''Top Tip'' (as in Viz Top Tip ) ?
I thought It was mildly amusing if not funny, but not as funny as I found your post TBH.
I have 3 perfectly serviceable buckets none of which have ever had plaster in them, so I don't need to buy any more thanks.
Would you stick your hand in a fire if I recommended that ?

Mac. Pinch of salt at the ready...

I am a bit dim to not realise you were winding us up - the joke is on me

chric sorry fo jackin' yo thread bro' but using your approach combined with that in the vid will result in bike cleaning awesomeness

I'm still waiting for your next stage

Just buy another one in the Spring, before prices rise.
Only £400 or so if you get one with knackered CCT's and swap yours over.

That's less than you'd spend on AutoPolish Extravanganza Pro Multi-use, Zebra chipolata Ultrapolish Shiny-Glym, probably.

And the old one can be scrapped for spares.

Zebra chipolata

How did you know that Zebra chipolata was such a food polish.

The funny thing is that if a bike could be bought for £400 it would work out cheaper except all the parts would need cleaning before swapping over.

Yeah Yeah, but like you could just put them in the dishwasher as you you took them off like innit.

I need to start spell checking properly. Half the time I don't look at the keys and sort of touch type as I half no where the keys are.

It's the other half you want to practise on, then.

Cleanliness is important.

I wash mine every year whether it needs it or not.

So do I.

Don't always bother with the bike, though.
