Re: Good Morning

yeah I went on sites etc @StuF  on vehicle tag says suspension upgrade, that's it.has wrong code for differential, that's proven, has stone guard under engine,has cooling upgrade for engine, can shift gears like manual without unlocking gearlever, ok basically was 1 year or two ahead of normal sedan. Black interior, child locks, map lights, well I knew it was cop car anyway as have original books ha.

but eventually noticed in right light on one side at back can see it was a patrol car  can see where stripes and phone number stickers were.

.. so .. that would likely mean engine isnt what it says either, prob has variable timing on inlet and exhaust (again like later model) so slightly more powerful than standard engine. also has wide steel wheels which are getting pretty rare now

Re: Tabaluga's

Hi @SmilingGecko  hope you had a good break 😸

had annoying talky never stop neighbours leave, only to be replaced w dodgy ones straight away lol. Got suspension repairs done on car. Had to be done. Been putting it off since bought the thing der lol 

had a huge long wait at chemist. Assistant talked me into getting something did not need. Then when get home , bottle, label not same. They went to all the bother of splitting  something up , putting in empty bottle, print label off even lol. And didn't need it . So lots of time to think, look at thinks, check people out etc. ended up buying 2 magazines. One an old war comic like were around when I was a teenager. 
thought to myself I could write them. Definitely do a better job than whoever wrote this one lol. Was way below average plus not realistic as they don't really know the WW2 planes. 
anyway. Was a bit surprised chatty mechanic didn't want to ... ok ..chat when picked car up. Think he had trouble plus not sure its right still now. Well he didn't charge much labor but parts astronomical. Ok prices in my head from 30 years ago lol. 
anyway he said prior to doing it may not finish it due to running out of time , which did happen but now not sure if job complete or mostly complete.. I should ring

Re: Tabaluga's

Re: Tabaluga's

Check out this AI voice replication technology @TAB. It sounds like its so damn convincing with the right toning and voice inflection.  You can't spot that its fake. You can type your message in the text box then select the drop down menu in the accent you want the message to sound like. It sounds true to life.  It means lots of white collar workers are going to lose their jobs with this AI tech and other tech. The company is called Eleven Labs. You can sign up for $5 and it can replicate your voice to read whatever the text you give it.  I've heard from someone you can't spot the message is fake.
