If it can't hold 4-6 people plus collecting gear; cross rivers, climb mountains, and double as a sleeping quarters in a storm it is a toy.
:lol:

you're spot on!
I do watch the show, but that's because the typical British humor is going rampant in it and i usually roll on the floor laughing in about 10 minutes

i don't have a big car, only a small and quite rickety one; but it's primarly used to transport live fish and when there's snow and ice everywhere and my favorite form of transport (chopper) is too dangerous :mrgreen:

but it's very very European. and also very British.
if it wasn't for a life long addiction with things Monty Python and similar stuff (something Marc rubbed off on me, blame him!) I wouldn't get it at all, not being British :beardy:

the league the gentleman - where can one find that? on TV or the WWW?

I like Monty Python, and top gear - even though I think cars are basically boring. Too bad the really insane stuff, like playing darts with 3 cars each, are now really a thing of the past

Its available on DVD. A make-believe town, with lots of insane/ zany characters. Very dark humour at times, but very British.

Not sure even the Top Gear guys could top this one. Best used car ad ever, recently posted on craigslist.

Hey ! Are we gonna pick this coolwall back up? If so I say
I say very cool! Why do i say this? Well first off on my lfs's stock list they are listed as "very cool catfish" and they have a quirky and Very ADHDish personality which makes for some interesting situations! Great fish but not quite sub-zero even if I keep them!

In this ad, the owner wrote: nothing but lumber for 6 straight days.

Apparently the person who posted this ad was a Panaque or Panaquito. I did not know they could drive. More research is needed.

P.S. Bump the thread?

Never got around to this one... but based on the PC writeup, and the Breeding: Unreported in the aquarium would lead me to be willing to try it if I ran into them on a list.

Definately cool. If I managed to breed it it would move down to sub-zero.
