Spend time with the girls. Whatever happens.

As to the cats, extra food and water is not enough? Spoiled I'd say.  evil6  Our dog does fine for 2 or 3 days.

I will most likely just be "chillin" playing CoD 4 on PS3. I don't want to go anywhere really, when I go out I end up breaking the diet.

copy of the BMW 600cc boxer twin ,but with a bit of tuning good for 85 mph ,  Wink
but takes some work on the gearchange to keep it a 5,500 -6,500 revs , but good fun from a cheap 1947 design car , now worth 5 Times it's new cost in 76 ,
I just turned down a straight swap for a 2007 volkeswagen golf GTI, but kept the girls phone number  evil6, as she always wanted a ride in a 2CV,  evil, .................... Wink

BTW, back on topic "memorial day " we don't have that in the UK, this weekend is May bank holiday ,
day off from work on Monday ,  for the unfortunate workers  evil6
and the UK weather forecast is RAIN ,

indeed it is the same type  Tommie , but that one is the normal 6 light version , mine is the 4 light version ,
difference is the extra window behind the passenger door as sold in the UK, mine is the 4 light |(windows ) and has the rear indicators fitted in place of the window , and was specially imported , it was the cheaper version in France , but worth more for it's rarity , only about 5 in the UK now ,
lol ,I must try and find that film , never seen it , and thanks for the head up on that, there are some in the States , but never officialy imported as they fail the crash tests ,

roco, you failed to mention that the reason the 2cv failed the us crash test was because it couldn't get to the required speed in the space available at the testing facility.

Leave it to the british.

Similar to the volkswagen beetle. It left the us because it failed by a very minute amout on the emissions scale. And VW said "F" you and so that was the end of the here. So stupid of the US, I loved those cars. But we all know how ignorant the US gov't can be. And cheap. And you talk about get around in the snow, they do not need snow tires for real. I used to pass cars that had them.  evil
