SEXY MATHS

Post by **volvosneverdie** » 30 Jul 2009 08:20 pm

Ive just got 34% of a semi on.

I didnt know maths could be that sexy.
An ive done it with Carol Vordermans cousin.

Post by **filthyjohn** » 30 Jul 2009 08:25 pm

Seen Carol's replacement? More attractive, but I get the feeling she ain't as mathematically endowed.

Post by **volvosneverdie** » 30 Jul 2009 08:29 pm

Thats what I was thinking man.
As I gazed into her lounge window from an overlooking tree.

Youre better looking than Carol, but look at you, you cant even set the videoplus on that VCR.
I thought.

I just googled her. She's kinda cute. Plus girls who are into sciencey type subjects > (*10^24) girls interested in arty subjects.

cheers

A fuel-injected 360: Not the prettiest, but the best daily driver 300 of all, IMHO ... Good buy, but watch the rust!

I reckon your luck's starting to change Ben. And that means that your looks will start to fade. Luckily, you have a nice car to impress the ladies, so it's all good.

No no ... I just meant the "excessive play" problem sounds familiar

Still haven't got around to fixing that on the GLT yet, the Mk1 had priority ...
