    Chairman of the bench Professor Ian Roffe told her: "You have used alcohol inappropriately to deal with your issues."

    I wonder how one can use it appropriately to deal with one's issues.

      Well (at least in the case of Gin, which has no other rational use), proper use can clear up issues with clogged inkjet printer heads, removing ink from marker-boards, and other similar tasks.

        The appropriate use of alcohol to deal with issues is: 0. Say to oneself "Elephant that!" 1. Pour a large one to celebrate dealing with your issues. 2. Rinse, lather, repeat

                Gin is a very versatile fluid: With the addition of Tonic, frozen H2O, and a slice of lemon, it can dissolve ladies underwear! :laugh:

                  No - the supports round the edges and down the center do that: the main "roof" is just a thin sheet. And as to "How can teeth make a £220 worth the damage" that's easy - have you had any re-spray work done recently? £220 is cheap!

                    Once upon a time, when Vilmos was young and Vilmos was innocent [okay scrap the innocent] there was a very nice young barmaid [Swiss if I recall] working in the pub. One evening she was in very tight jeans and I asked "How do you get into those?" The reply? "You can start by buying me Gin & Tonic." :-D

                      Gin has much in common with garlic. If you or your woman eats garlic, both of you had better eat garlic.

                        Social Engineering at its best! We're so used to paying insane amounts for car repairs we consider that little bit of work worth that kind of money.

                          Lets suppose that the car falls from some height in this case that thin sheet will enter your skull literally. They have be solid. If the car flips the roof and the metal cage has to support the weigh of the whole car + the passengers or it becomes interesting. I don't own a car , not even a license to drive one in this matter. :)

                                    Basically Welsh women are as tough as welsh men. This is attested to by the fact they used to go into battle with their man folk as witnessed by many Roman writers, who were quire frankly horrified at the spectacle, it being unknown anywhere else in the then known word, and at their effectiveness. Clearly the ability to bite the roof off a Fiat 500 has evolved from the ability to bite through Roman armour. And in fact the relative wimpyness of welsh men explains how a small number of saxon male conquerors ended up being responsible for the entire gene pool of todays England; welsh women prefer saxon men! :)
