New priority for the weekend

Whoops.......
Said I'd go for a little drive tonight as all the talk of FTOs got me a little in the mood for a little of that sweet FTO love. So I sat in, put on a nice metal cd I just burned, cranked it up to 50 just enough for that relaxing background ambience. Opened up my centre console to store the case, oh dear, no room there! Full of cases already, I know, I'll put it in the glove compartment! Hmm, thats a little tight, ah, it'll squeeze........so off I go. About a hundred yards down the road, Miss FTO decided 'no Marty it will NOT squeeze', and decided to throw all the stuff in the compartment on the floor, along with the compartment itself. I pulled over, and by the side of the road, in the pale moonlight, and the help of the reading lamps and a cigarette lighter, upon closer inspection I discovered the problem.....I had too much crap in the glove compartment, including a 1 kg bag of sesame sticks, (dont remember them), a prospectus for a college course I was thinking of doing a year ago, 6 batteries (I can give you yours back now Chris thanks), and various other sh1t. Broke the little holder yokes right off the hinges, but it looks easy enough to fix, in the daytime, shouldnt take too long I hope.
Which leads me to my next point, just how much crap can you fit in those glove boxes? It really amazed me what fell out of it! I could have fitted a medium sized monkey in there if I wanted to!

ROFL!

I keep my crap in the passenger seat and on the floor just behind the seats.. It's easier to reach AND there's the added benefit of not breaking the glove box :-)

If you have all the bits You'll probably be able to put it back together - if not it shouldn't be too much hassle getting a replacement.. Good luck Mr. Jer.. Atleast you found your sesame sticks..

Anyway, back to the topic at hand.

I know have a 1 kg bag of sesame sticks for sale, still in the original packaging, unused, and in very good condition. First to see will buy. No timewasters. Open to offers.

Maybe Admin would want to move this thread to the 'For Sale' section?

Well Martin the batteries on hand were high quality Duracell, three quarters full... I'll trade you, the battaries for 500g of sesame seed stick and your Recaro's...? Done deal??

No can do Chris. The sesmae sticks come in 1kg, cant split the pack. The batteries I found though happen to be EXTREMELY high quality duracell, and totally full. So you're making a good profit out of the batteries. You can make up the extra with a packet of Fruit Pastilles. Think we'd be even then.
