Somewhere around 1995 car manufacturers started replacing all the mechanical bits in cars with science fiction.  So if your timing went out you no longer knew if it was just because your timing belt/chain was worn as the problem could just as easily be caused by having a faulty cigarette lighter.  In the end I gave up on trying to fix my cars altogether and consequently no longer discount faith healing and psychiatric counselling as viable options for mechanical repair.

Back in 1969 women were desperately trying to put on weight to try and match the unrealistic ideals of plump magazine models and movie starlets.  Men across the world lived in fear of their girlfriends asking the question “does my bum look skinny in this?”.   Luckily the ‘fleetwood company’ came to the rescue with their revolutionary Wate-On products.  I’m pretty sure that “Homogenised liquid emulsions” is just another name for milk but I like the way they guarantee weight gain without the need to do any exercise.
