NZ 500 incident

Any truth to the rumours...seeing this is a rumour network that a certain "HOT"ed up 500 had yet another incident?

Aldee - Notice the play on words that Hughesy has for ZK-HOT, which is Tobys machine.

Xenophobic? Inflammatory? Or just smacking of a thin skin tired of all those sheep jokes?

Less said about the respective raising of average IQs by mass migration the better.

bomb,

You and Ned have both had posts removed, and will shortly have yourselves removed if you want to keep this up.

This is Rotorheads, not the school playground. Grow up, the pair of you

Remove me if you wish, I certainly wont lose sleep over it.

Fantome (if you do get to read this before I get removed) I have thought of all sorts of nasty things to say to one who lives in Tassy but I guess living such a horrible little place like that is punishment enough.

Until next time ( and there will be a next time)
