I was driving home this morning along a dual carriage way, luckily. Just passed a speed camera so my speed was 40mph as I approached a set of traffic lights on green. Knowing the lights i knew they would change to red before I passed them so I started to lightly brake.......However the Fronty had other ideas and the osf brake locked:mad:

Luckily I didn't hit anything and I was only 1/2 mile from home so managed to wrestle it home, thank god the roads were empty. By the time I got it home there was smoking pouring off the wheel.:eek:

So I got out locked it up came in the house and put the kettle on and left the piece of crap to catch fire and burn.......Nope it's still there.

Pay the local 'yoots' a tenner and tell them to take it for a joyride. Wait five minutes and ring five-oh telling them your car has been nicked :nod:

All said in jest of course ;)
