I think you may be confusing him with the Blues Brothers........

I have a similar issue.........different part of the anatomy though.......
Someone on here mentioned that they've gotten rid of the Toyota Crown taxi's over there!! That's a real shame, nothing like a taxi in Japan - a Toyota crown driven by some 110 year old not out bloke wearing gloves!!

I had to go there for work a lot and had to go to Sapporo, as it happened, right in the middle of their Ice Festival - and I hate the snow!! Complained about freezing my nuts off and a colleague from the UK pointed out that it's like 300 or 400km east of Vladivostok Russia and I should have expected it!! I had no idea it was a major snow skiing destination, ****ing hate the cold.....

Just because, I switched to the F1 instead of footy tonight, and sure, it's just practice to race tomorrow but;
Seargant already planted it into the wall, bounced a bit, lost a wheel and had to vacate a fire and they hadn't even been on track for 20mins of an hour long practice yet.
I mean, everyone is safe, but this is far more interesting to whatever game of football is on at present.

Bit of fun on the train home from the footy.
Some bloke clearly drunk with a half bottle of Jim Beam gets on.
PSOs at Oakleigh talk to him.
PSOs at Clayton take the Jim Beam off him.
PSO's at Westall deal with him.

That’s called taking a pic from the shade into bright sunlight when it’s 35 degrees at 80% humidity. Even the phone can’t be ****ed.

They have the old government limos here still too.
Not criticising in any way the Marathon unit, but Chien Wah are most definitely the superior dialy dimmie. Not that they're easy to find since Colesworths stopped stocking them, but worth the effort IMHO.Marathon for everyday and sth Melbourne market for a treat.
Sth Melb's definitely the reigning overlord, I'm sure everyone would agree.

What's been the best meal you've had there so far?
Those Centuries are good buying on the import market. In typical Japanese style its a 5 year apprenticeship before they let employees build them, and that's after they've already served on the normal production lines. They lose money on every single one. Probably the best made car on the planet then and still.

Don’t know. Just generally the produce is incredible and most restaurants are excellent. They are starting to blend into each other now. The ones I remember are because they were different. Had Naples style pizza that is better than Italy and even burgers are elite
It's funny how that can work. Best burger I've ever eaten was in Paris.
Shit. I thought that was someone's hotel room in Japan!!The shit you do when you're divorced.

Sth Melbourne ones have a lot more flavour than traditional dimmies.
I know a little lunch shop in Braeside, called "chop chop" ( no illegal tobacco there ), they make their own dimmies, and sell them frozen by the bag as well as for take away. Wouldn't say they are better than south melb, but they are different and good.
I've been in a few VAP's over the years, and i really don't see much correlation between worker skill and vehicle quality.
At best 5 years would weed out the ones who purposely want to sabotage the product ( was probably more of an issue in Australia than it ever would have been in Japan ).
Might have been more of a thing back in the 1960's when British Leyland workers had to try to install bits that didn't fit properly.
