Bwaahahaha Knight industries Two Thousand? Now there's a name which definately will stand the test of time, and versatile too. If they can't sell it via normal methods, there is always the option to utilise early morning TV or late night infomercial slots :thumb Bet the same amount of forward thinking went into the 'sparklie twinkle light' leather jacket hoff wore whilst standing on the berlin wall,,, shame he wasn't a few meters further down,, the demolition crew could have killed two birds with one stone, so to speak, eliminating two evils in the one hit, the world would have been a much better place for it.

Is it just me or does this sound like something you would buy from crazy clarkes in the toy section? They really should consider trying to flog this in the abovementioned 'early morning TV/late night infomercial' slots. Sounds like a winner, and such a reasonable price :thumb I'M EXCITED :puke

Aha.. so I should start trying to flog festy off to a museum or private collection, I could make a killing... people are such suckers 😂 Festy is better cos he actually blows smoke along with the non working buttons!
All I need to do is go to supercheap and buy some crap led signal lighty things, tiewire and gaffa tape. or even whip up something from Dick smiths and make my own flashing red lights for his bonnet and I too can own a 'KIT' modified dub.... unroolllll

back into the naff category now

I'll offer $3.94 for it-------------on second thoughts---no river jumping-----no I wont----------And now for something equaly usefull----------

Mrs. Irene Graham of Thorpe Avenue, Boscombe, delighted the audience with her reminiscence of the German prisoner of war who was sent each week to do
her garden. He was repatriated at the end of 1945, she recalled. "He'd always seemed a nice friendly chap, but when the crocuses came up in the middle of our lawn in February 1946, they spelt out 'Heil Hitler.'"

mwahaha, whilst that is so wrong, it's simultaneously hilarious 🥷

remember when back at school, you would always pick on the person you liked most. The chick you had the crush on would get her bra flciked, balls of paper thrown at the back of her head, tennis balls would always head her way.... similarly heather picks on the hoff 🙂

which reminds me... anyone heard the Lano and Woodley love song "I picked onya Sonya cos I had a crush onya"?

haha

NoOoOo-oOoOoO u knob, ur the one who constantly scours the net for new and 'exciting' things hoff related, which you constantly dump on avd. The hoff is 'so-o last year' dearie, so quit dumping this shit on here. It's obvious YOU like him coz YOU keep bringing the dork back up! *thinks about throwing in the 'flogging a dead horse' statement here, but reaslises this is a G rated area of avd, and in amazers case it is more like flogging off over the dead horse, so decides against it*.

Do I hate the hoff? hmmm....hell yeah.. Why? Well it's because it is so-oo fucken lame-o and done to death. But it keeps coming back like some gross infection caught from a public toilet seat. :puke

Once again a thread which has turned creepie. CrEeEeEeeeEpIiIiIeEeEeE I tells ya, farrken cRrRrrrRreEeEpIeEeeeeE!
:cry :cry :cry


changing subject now...............................:sandrine
