I trained as a mechanic in the 1960's, and I seem to remember it being a common phrase even then

...and I was told it back in the early '70s

doesn;t mean its right! Its burn not blow. BTW, I was not having a go at your t-shirts, just mentioning that petrol engines burn their fuel not explode them.

Yes, I kind of gathered that, but it made me smile, and appears to have done the same for others.

Suck, squash, bang, burn?

You've seen one of my cars struggling along the road, haven't you? ;)

Sorry, shouldn't that be suck, squash, burn, throw out

Surely theres a vapourise or something in there too? And since all explosions are rapid burning, I guess we'll just have to banish the word 'bang' to other uses...

Uh, I'm hesitant to bring the discussion back to the actual teeshirts, but did you end up with any skinny fit teeshirts?

skinny as they come, kate - the "ladies' fit" shirt looks fabulous on louise

Nay problem - I can't remember everybody I met either. I didn't know that was Leafy with us, and I can't even remember if I was actually told...

Posted: **Thu Jul 12, 2007 8:41 pm**

Well, we both met a lot of people

Bigginger, did you get my PM? I need a name and address to send my cheque to, if you have any (preferably ladies fit) tees left please?
