    Must fit my fuel filter...it's been sitting in the gaff for 6 months or more at this stage. Maybe i'll do it when I'm get the shocks and get it all done at once.

    The jam ones are the best. The chocolate ones are terrible.

    Only good if they are the Tim Hortons ones with chocolate on the outside. They are my "I've had the ****tiest day so I am having a chocolate/custard donut and a coffee on the way home", then I spend all my time trying not to drip the stuff on my work clothes :D

    @ dgt, I shall bring a few on Sunday :D

    Keeping hearing tim hortons being hyped up, maybe the quality in dublin is better but it just seems like slightly better than petrol station average the few times I've had them. Dishwatery coffee and some kinda longlife donuts coming toward the end of their artificially prolonged life.

    Nah not a fan, when I was in Canada where it started up, I'm not joking you the donuts looked radioactive with the colour and shine, and the coffee was ****e.

    However, after a bad day, where you do a swap in work as to who has the best legal drugs, a sugar filled donut, and a sugar laced coffee can be manna from heaven.

    It does tend to be people who had them in Canada that are the biggest fans, I assume the ones there are better.

    Know a few people in Boston this week, dunkin donut central, very jealous - I have donuts and pancakes on the brain now...

    "Dunkin Coffee"s in spain (euro franchise of dunkin donuts or a complete ripoff, dunno) are fairly savage.

    Luckily every tesco in limerick is closed now or I know where Id be!

    Believe me the ones in canada are shocking, fluourescent colored they are, they glow in the dark.

    On the car front, I'm off up to dgt at the weekend, we are reading any faults in the car, doing an oil change (well he is, I'm helping), and I'm going to replace a faulty front bulb, and see if i can get the rear cabin bulb to work by replacing it.
